Because you're reacting too quickly??? I don't actually believe sunglasses can make a noticeable improvement in reaction time, but even if they somehow did how is it dangerous xD???

A tinted lens is yellow because it inherently blocks out most blue/purple light. Some people are unfortunately misinformed in that a yellow tint will cut down on glare that occurs when sun bounces off car hoods, headlight glare at night-time driving, etcetc. However, it does none of those things, and it also cuts out the traffic lights of blue/green and some red (depending on the density of the tint). Nobody our age hears about this because its mostly more important in older people who have photophobia brought on my corneal or lens opacities (esp. cataracts).

It's not to do with reaction time, more that you can't see important signals such as brake lights, traffic lights, and that the most transmitted colour at night is blue/purple - which the yellow tint blocks. Can't see some signals in day, can't see pretty much anything at night. Dangerous for driving.

Felt like uploading the hardest custom guitar hero song ever made, and it's actually a real song not just some beeps made in a music maker program.

Pass this song, at reloaded and i'll give u a brand new wii dance mat!!! Apparently there is 33 nps arpeggio sweeps in this song. Anyone here play guitar? so they can tell me just how insane that is lol

 

[MTGod]

Kudos for the explanation, Unreon

@Ant1: Gawd that would break my hand I'll stick to mashing things with sticks, thanks xD

 

[Ant1]

And the weird thing is mtgod, a lot of ppl have actually said that song is fun to play! I myself have never played through the entire song, i gave up after like 2 minutes in, it was just overwhelming.

 

[xXArrowXx]

playing that suspension song on a real guitar is way more legit.

Masochists, the lot of them!!!

I did a 100% Kirby 64 Crystal Shards speedrun today (with no preplanning or practice).

World-----Levels----Time-----Shards I forgot-------Time taken to get forgotten shards
1 ----------- 4 ------ 11:56 ----------- 1 ------------------------- 1:30
2 ----------- 5 ------ 17:52 ----------- 1 ------------------------- 1:08
3 ----------- 5 ------ 23:27 ----------- 4 ------------------------- 5:08
4 ----------- 5 ------ 21:32 ----------- 3 ------------------------- 4:15
5 ----------- 5 ------ 25:33 ----------- 4 ------------------------- 4:00
6 ----------- 4 ------ 10:50 ----------- 2 ------------------------- 1:51
Final Boss --2------- 02:34

TOTAL
without forgotten shards ----- 103:17 (1 hour and 43:17 minutes)
forgotten shard time ---------- 16:52
100% Speedrun Time --------- 120:09 (2 hours and 9 seconds)

Fail : World 3 - it's a water world and that generally screws me up. Could get much better at this.
Win : Killing all bosses in under 1 minute, except the 2nd last and the last boss, which were both still really good. Also World 4 level 1, which i fluked and did in 2 minutes :D

For those that know anything about this game, it didn't include going to previous levels to quickly get the flame-flame ability and then just pressing B to get through an entire level. I only did this once because I happened to have the ability at the start of a level, and probably the best level for it too.

I liked Kirby 64 a lot. I'm thinking of getting it on VC. As soon as I finish Pokemon Snap :3

Rock/Flame was where it was at during Kirby 64. I ***** the whole game with that combo. Shootan enemies with flaming boulders was beast.

It totally is not where it is at.
It's SO slow, like, in general, not speedrun talk. Though, in a speedrun it's fun to use it's startup to slide off blocks in the air.

My Top 3
Electric/Cutter <-- It's a double ended lightsaber. Plus you can use it as you jump and run.
Flame/Bomb <-- 2nd best move for speedruns, feels fastest though. Also, everything blows up
Ice/Cutter <-- I've finished a quite a fewlevels through with this in use the whole time, much fun.

I like trying to hit all the enemies with Flame/Arrow, though probably only a little faster than Rock/Flame.

As far as the VC goes, now I have to finish Wrecking Crew. NO-ONE KNOWS WHAT THAT IS, amirite?

 

[Timic83]

isnt the fastest rock/cutter? (the one that turns you into super fast bird 1/8 of the time, yeah now that i think about it that would only be useful in a tas)

 

[xXArrowXx]

so zetta slow

btw looks like fire-fire is broken -.-

 

[luke_atyeo]

wrecking crew is a ps1 game yeah?

 

[Alzi]

Speed run good games like DKC2.

It's pretty good, except there is a lot of luck to it to get it straight away and also whenever you go to a different room you have to try and get it again V_V.
It's most useful in World 4, because it has a lot of big spaces with no doors so you can get the Bird and fly through!

Except, Flame/Flame is still faster by a noticeable margin. Still, fun ability.

And yes Arrow, flame/flame is pretty broken. Although, if you go through the entire game with one ability, due to a lot of small rooms sometimes, Bomb/Flame is faster(I tested this a while ago, not through the entire game just through like 8 levels and overrall Bomb/Flame was faster). Also, Bomb/Flame is much more fun and hands on, rather than just pressing B.

@Luke:

...

EDIT: Alzi, use good characters like Meta Knight.

 

[luke_atyeo]

dont just tell me what games to speedrun alzi, tell me how to live my entire life while your at it.

to be fair though, dkc2 is a good game.

no my bad, I was thinking of some other **** ps1 game, your talking about the mario one on nes right?

 

[Splice]

no my bad, I was thinking of some other **** ps1 game, your talking about the mario one on nes right?

yesh

It's one of the only two games my mum plays.

Pretty sure you looked that up though.
Also, there is a brawl hack that makes the 75m stage look like Wrecking Crew.

 

[luke_atyeo]

Pretty sure you looked that up though.

yeah yeah, guilty, it was pretty obvious huh? but since you decided to humiliate me (lol not really) I did a little more research and there is in fact a game on ps1 called wrecking crew, so I was actually right in a way.

 

[Sieg]

NES games are ****, everyone knows PS1/N64 era had the most amazing games.

Ho Ho.

 

[unreon]

Pac-Man is a game where you wander aimlessly through a maze of dark, featureless corridors, relentlessly chased by the undead. Your combat abilities against them are minimal, and your ammunition extremely limited - there are only four per map. Even if you do "kill" your enemies, they are not truly dead, merely slightly inconvenienced. They can never be truly killed, and live for the sole purpose of hunting you until you're dead.

Do you get what I'm saying? Pac-Man is the first survival horror game.

 

[Melancholy]

It totally is not where it is at.
It's SO slow, like, in general, not speedrun talk.

I'm not talking quick, I'm talking awesome.

Rock/Flame is where it's at.

 

[Splice]

Mini Volcano. Just doesn't feel as cool to use as other abilities to me.

Also Luke, the reason I at your first comment is that game is what a lot of people think I'm talking about, including google search.
Why would a ps1 game be on the Virtual Console though??

 

[xXArrowXx]

i taught my dog how to play left 4 dead.
kirby games look so easy @_@

That's what they are for! The point of Kirbys Dreamland was a friendly fun game for the people that found other Nintendo games far too hard.

Strange that some Wii games are easier than Kirby games though.

And uh, dog playing left 4 dead? Photoz?

You post the most epic pictures Scabe. At the most epic times to make all that boring talk all pay up into one picture.

So yeah i've thinking of quiting 1 vs 1 in brawl next year and begin just practicing with doubles and become **** like that.
