    What was most annoying for me was ending up faster than him, then LB decided not to work and I hit a rolling barrel :(.

    Regardless, THIS IS WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT SON:

    I didn't quite beat him, mainly due to me not being able to get the bit right just after the 'up-the-building' run. However, Nova I challenge you to beat me >:D

    Gone is the thought that only the Japanese are 100% pro at Sonic. Props man :V

    Now I wonder if GenoCideNT is going to try and keep his title by beating his time by more than 2:05.48. Heehee.

    EDIT: how the fuck

    Haha thanks. To be fair though, I was practising that for about an hour each day this week (sad I know). I'm pleased, though, that I did it in the end.

    Now I have to repeat and record it :(.

    As for the exploit vid, I guess that's kind of retarded but I imagine they spent a damn long time trying to get that right. Probably as long to get a decent run down the normal route.

    EDIT:

    2:05:63 run, recorded. I still beat genocide. But then I found this. I have a new target.

    Is it even possible to beat that?

    Jack shit.
    Some little mistakes were made so yes it can be improved upon if someone can even match that time.

    I've killed that time. On ranked, my best there is 1:32:41. If you're playing on the 360 you can see for yourself- it's #1 by a pretty significant margin.

    That video is all crusty and old by now. :v: If you want to see something impressive, you should look at his recent skills run.

    Posted for those too lazy to go to his channel. He found a way to make the 3D-in-2D glitch useful in Crisis City (if only marginally so) which is more than I can say. :v:

    Also, broke 1:43 on Green Hill Act 2. Can't remember the exact time but I was happy to finally break that 1:44 barrier.

    Steam. KAKIPI switched over to the Steam version a few videos ago, likely for the slight advantage that 60FPS gives. His Green Hill w/skills run looks like it's in fast motion. :|

    Kickin' this up a bit

    I'm not sure if the Steam demo counts, but I got 46.64 on GHZ1. The only real difference between the demo and the final (in GHZ's case) is the inclusion of Red Rings, so it should still count, right?

    Steam username is Blivsey, not that it matters with the demo.

    It can't just be me that dosen't really consider that a speed run right? I'm not really a fan of the BS "if you can do it, it's legitimate way of beating it"

    Like Formular 1 or Rally driving, you could cut a huge corners or skip across fields, but it dosen't count because you didnt beat the course correctally.

    It was looking like a really good speedrun untill hey jumped half the level =/

    There's space for both. This one seems to use the principles of a TAS basically, do whatever's possible in the bounds of the game to complete it in the best time possible.
