Not bad, but this is the point where I link you to this and issue you a simple challenge: Beat it.

Also, damn Youtube. Damn them to hell.

JT! · « **Reply #2 on:** February 15, 2007, 10:14:07 am »

Is that time a total sum of all the acts?

If it is i have beaten it.

Bilan · « **Reply #3 on:** February 15, 2007, 11:31:14 am »

Its the time from the beginning of the game to the end of Final Zone in real time IIRC

eredani · « **Reply #4 on:** February 15, 2007, 01:16:31 pm »

The total time for Sonic speedruns is always counted by the in-game timer, and not the real time taken.

Bilan · « **Reply #5 on:** February 15, 2007, 01:22:51 pm »

Eh, I forget where I heard that then~

Groudon · « **Reply #6 on:** February 15, 2007, 01:27:25 pm »

The only time that real time adds to the overall time in Sonic speedruns is on ones like Sonic Adventure (DX), due to the adventure fields.

Rolken · « **Reply #7 on:** February 15, 2007, 01:56:29 pm »

No, because bonus screens vary in length.

Congrats on beating mike's run (could you tell us the total time of all levels? and yes, you have to beat his time adding up in game levels, which if i read correctly you think you did). Is it done on emulator or on console? Hopefully it is done on console so you can submit it.

JT! · « **Reply #9 on:** February 15, 2007, 03:21:52 pm »

I'm not really up on the speedrun rules, so i'll explain what i've done.

It's all non tool assisted, but i did do it on an emulator. I don't really care about braking any records to be honest, i just made the vid as my tribute to a game which was my childhood, haha.

I played all the levels individually, and then eddited them together, each level is played non tool assisted, but it is not one run right through the game, which i should have mentioned befor proclaiming that i've beaten someone's time. Sorry i didn't really explain too well.

The total sum of all the acts is ... 16:29, but again, i didn't play them all in one go. So apologise to mike and his run, which i'm looking forward to watching. I really couldn't be botherd with a full run. lol.

May not be 'offical' but i hope it'll be a good watch. :)

For a segmented run, just adding up the 19 level times, you can observe TSC charts for rankings: http://www.soniccenter.org/rankings/sonic_1/times/total/sonic

As far as a segmented time, you lose out to Mike by a whopping...1 second.

JT! · « **Reply #11 on:** February 15, 2007, 04:56:58 pm »

1 second...

That's a kick in the balls right there.

JT! · « **Reply #12 on:** February 16, 2007, 09:06:39 pm »

Are those times on those links tool assisted? Which are and which arn't? :-S

Groudon · « **Reply #13 on:** February 16, 2007, 09:20:38 pm »

TSC doesn't allow anything tool-assisted. As a result, none of them are tool-assisted.

Rick_242 · « **Reply #14 on:** February 16, 2007, 09:21:23 pm »

TSC doesn't allow... Groudon beat me to it.

PsyBorg · « **Reply #15 on:** February 16, 2007, 11:20:04 pm »

Really?

...oh wait, wrong game.

JT! · « **Reply #16 on:** February 17, 2007, 12:09:24 am »

Sorry, i'm getting myself confused.

I didn't know 24 seconds for GH1 was possible non tool assisted!

yse · « **Reply #17 on:** February 17, 2007, 05:44:04 am »

I've been trying on and off to record 24. A new trick found by Upthorn saving about 1/10 of a second got me started again, my best attempt came in at 25 seconds and one measly frame.

But I will get it eventually! I promise!

stanski · « **Reply #18 on:** February 17, 2007, 12:34:05 pm »

I got it yesterday playing on console. Its not impossible.

yse · « **Reply #19 on:** February 17, 2007, 07:12:35 pm »

Please please please tell me you were recording.

I wasn't. Just a casual playthrough. I was only half going for it (i.e. i used the right route but wasn't restarting a million times), and just happened to get it.

comments:

GH3: Why no bouncy bounce on the item boxes like the TAS does? Its not that hard.

M1: You can get through the lava part much cleaner then that.

sy1: A little sloppy as a whole

sy2: overly cautious

L1: Not sure what you were so slow at the end about.

SL2: No shortcut?

sl3: work on your boss battle

sb1: whats up with your route here?

I found it hard...

M1: You can get through the lava part much cleaner then that.

Yeah maybe it was a bit iffy, but i didn't think it was too bad.

sy1: A little sloppy as a whole

Maybe the odd one or two bits at the start were a bit 'sloppy', but i thought the rest was ok.

sy2: overly cautious

Humm, yeah i'd agree.

L1: Not sure what you were so slow at the end about.

Eh?

SL2: No shortcut?

Nah it's not in the spirit of the game :-P

sl3: work on your boss battle

Yeah i never liked his boss, i just did a decent-ish job and that'll do.

sb1: whats up with your route here?

Seemed to be the quickest.

:-)
