Competition Central / Re: Sonic Generations Demo Speed Runs...

First and last run. This demo just sealed the deal for me. Def not buying this (I had intended to when I saw the first trailer). The handling on it just feels chunky. In all honesty, I think this is crap compared to Sonic 4 and I got that just from 1 run through it >_>

yeah, this was brought up on release... I'm actually not sure whether that is possible on Wii and PS3 since I believe both of those versions have motion controls in special stages. I've heard conflicting reports and I can't check it myself.

In any case, there's not much reason to treat this any differently from any other version difference on the site. It's not at all like CS2 and LL2 where it's not even the same level.

Alrighty, thanks for the reply Paraxade. I wasn't sure if it had been brought up or not and I dislike leaving things unsaid if they may be of relevance. Just wanted to be sure :)


And to Selphos, I totally agree, lol

Rules Revisions / Rule Change for Sonic 4 Episode 1?
« on: June 06, 2011, 02:38:21 am »
I help keep together a topic on Sega forums with the top times and scores for each act using both Sonic and Super Sonic (and TA and SA). I got to the Special Stages section and as I was updating it, I noticed the top times were all from the iOS devices. I decided to look up one of the speedruns done on an iPhone and I think there may need to be a rule change involving iOS devices and Special Stages.

^ That's the video.

The problem is that iOS devices give you free rotation with Sonic as opposed to the XBox, Wii, and Playstation 3 where you can rotate Sonic at only a fixed speed. This clearly gives iOS device users quite an advantage (as you can see at 0:06 in the video...the 3 platform versions cannot rotate at that speed).

I don't think there are any Special Stage times or scores submitted to the charts yet from an iOS device but I think this is something worth addressing.

For comparison:

It's not the same stage but you can clearly see what the max speed for rotation is.


As it stands, only Casino Street 2 and Lost Labyrinth 2 time/score submissions are banned from an iOS device. I think it should be extended to Special Stages as well.

If this seems like a silly thing to ban iOS submissions from, then I apologize XD It seems to give an advantage among most others so I thought it was at least worth mentioning.

I now have all 3 category records (Sonic, Super Sonic, Total) for Times :) I am hoping Flying Fox and Inu improve ;)

I should have my Mad Gear 2 SS run (1:29.10...with a big flop about one third through the run) under the Video's section soon. Just need to get approved for video submissions.

Make some videos and I will ;) but it'll take me some time because of stuff at home. I can get an admin to approve you but for the record you can just put the link from youtube (that is if you use youtube) into the comment section when submitting your stat and the video will be uploaded.

Ah, I didn't know that! Thank you! I'll make sure to do that then from now on :)

Most of my runs are based off of existing strats uploaded to youtube. I generally find myself watching Paraxade and werster's videos for strategies and then making slight adjustments to them (if needed). The only place I made any significant changes was Mad Gear 2. My favorites on YT has a lot of videos from S4E1 so if you're looking for strats, that's the way to go.

For now, here is the link to my run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPTaBn9FzZw

I usually record all my Mario Kart Wii videos onto VCR and then re-record to camera. Sadly, my sister keeps the XBox downstairs so that isn't an option for me for this :( And moving it around every time I want to play is just annoying.

I hate to be the last to post and then post again but...

For anyone who is interested, I will be streaming me playing S4E1 in approximately 30-45 mins (~9 pm EST).

I will post a link to the stream when it's up and ready. I am hoping to not have any problems as I have never streamed with this laptop before.

I will be playing Mad Gear Act 2 first (I currently hold WR...so now's your chance to see the strategy!) to try and get a 1:27 time. I may do Casino Street 2 as well, I'm not sure yet.

Thank you very much :) Glad to have found this site! I can't wait to submit a full sheet of times but given that the XBox I play on isn't mine, that could take a while, haha

Ahhh, right, I forgot about the slot machines. That makes perfect sense then. Thank you!

Casino Street 1 is missing for Scores/Rings. Any particular reason for this or...?
