Hey all, welcome to the Sonic Game Speedrun thread! The thread is pretty self explanatory, you post your best time on whatever level you went through and I'll keep track of them here. Video or picture proof is preferred but not necessary. I trust you all are mature enough to not lie about your time.

Anyone is welcome! (although preferably someone from Smashboards and not just linking the fastest time you can find on youtube)

I could do Emerald Hill Zone 1 in 24 seconds, but i haven't tried speedrunning it for a while. I'll see what I can do later, can't post any vids until i get my cam back. Tempted to try Unleashed 360 too.

Give it some time. Kupo said he'll add more when people post their times
^Pretty much this I have late night johns too Dx

Anyway, here's my time on Sonic 2: Emerald Hill Zone Act 1
24 seconds (almost 25 seconds)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNidpry8uYY
That looked easy.

....Then I tried it, and failed miserably lol.

Gonna practice Unleashed and some SA2B speedruns.


edit:@ROOOOOY!: You don't have to post a video, you can take a picture of your time with your name scribbled on a paper somewhere if you want lol.

Wow, I'm not even a Sonic fan, and my interest is piqued. The closest thing I ever came to speedrunning a game was the "4th missions" in SA2B, which weren't particularly tricky.
Now I have the urge to speedrun most of the games I have. I wish I was good at Sonic games.

This thread may as well be one huge D1AOS name-drop.

That guy practically challenges himself to push Sonic games to their limits.

I'll see what I can muster if I can bring myself to try.

Go for it!

I'm not forcing anyone to have picture or video proof lol. It's only in case if someone doesn't believe you. Just post your time if you want.

Not sure if you're trolling <.<

Loool. I only just found out D1AOS was Darksspinesonic not long ago. He's like just sooo good with every Sonic game.

Sorry Kupo, you may have to update my time. I took a screen shot of a recent speed run of Emerald Hill Zone Act 1
Nice improvement Tails!

Do you want me take your old time off or just add the new one in?

Not trolling Kupo, Nado was broken in Sonic heroes. One or two lucky nados could get you 3 ring outs in now time. I'm just a beast you know.

Urrgh.
...Read the bottom of the OP, please lol. Thanks though.

I should have been more clear. I was wondering if you were trolling about "but Sonic Heroes is not up there" when I already said at the bottom of the OP (and two posts above you....) that I'll add more games in once people post their times.

I can't supply a picture, but I do have the Wii record for Lost Labyrinth Zone Act 2 in Sonic 4. It's 1'43'65.

Last I checked, this is the record amongst all three platforms that have this zone. I could try and reach that time again if you need a picture as proof; I can remember mistakes I made in that run, or going faster in subsequent runs that I can use to break it even further. I's like to see if I could break 1'40 there.

I must go get myself a recorder and speedrun every Sonic game I can. XD

I bet I can speedrun some Heroes levels, Adventure/2 levels, and Unleashed levels.

@D1AOS: Never mind, that's the Wii version. -_-

I wish I had your skillz. <_<

Thanks. But do I have to? :p

And I'm still wondering about how he managed to exploit the game so well.

3D in 2D sections glitch all over again. What is this, Unleashed PS360?

K. I have a speedrun time I'd like to post for SADX, can I just post a pic of the time?

Never mind, I'll post it later.

For now, here's a Sonic 1 Master System Time. I was too lazy to go over to my Wii and do it over, so I downloaded the ROM instead XD.



I'm pretty sure I can get 19, but the signpost won't spin until the camera catches up to Sonic, so I need to slow down for that.

EDIT: LOL. As soon as I posted that, I got 19 seconds.

Yes, www.soniccenter.org is a great place to be for time attacking tips and tricks. I usually contribute to the community by breaking shiz like in my latest video, or like the gtw trick for Sonic Unleashed ps3/360. I'm mostly a 3D Sonic person though.

I didnt speedrun it yet, but i did a blind playthrough. i am impressed.
I tried speedrunning it but my thumb messed up multiple times and I ended up jump-canceling my spin dash instead of jumping AFTER the spin dash.

I did get sub-1 minute, though.
