megaman 2 speed run part 1

[Tupster]

Did poster really use turbo? This is about how fast I used to shoot when I played Megaman when I was a kid.

[evilschnitzel]

I consider turbo cheating. I wanted to see how fast YOU are - not how fast some 'manipulation' makes you. :S

[knigmich]

I always did Quickman first cause after that everything's so easy

[sp00kychin]

Wondering why you didn't attack metal man first. It's a given on megaman 2 that the first boss you take out is metal man. Not only is his stage easy, metal man isn't difficult to beat as well. And the power up you get from him saves you a lot of time clearing the other stages.

[Avalayon]

i have the game on NES and i only can say: wow!

its very difficult to play quickmans stage without deaths, i think.

everyone who thinks this seems easy, i got 1 thing for you:

try it yourself!

[porkchop00000]

u went straight for flashman but if ur fast enough u dont need it but instead of flash u should get metalman it makes the rest of it easier

[SwatDBOverlord]

Oh Gosh Its Recorded On A VHS LOL 00:00

[dante404]

Because he's using controls built into the game he's not cheating. Besides it's not like he broke a world record. If he did, believe me, they'd specify the platform and controls used. So chill out and enjoy.

[Kruggy0]

Turbo isn't cheating, at least not for speed runs (since theoretically, you CAN fire that fast manually. Optimal conditions etc). Cheating in this case would be something like, cheatcoding past stages, invulnerability, infinite items or such.

Besides, it's not like it was especially HARD to find turbo controllers back in the NES prime days either.

So shut up and enjoy the bloody video.

[ImBradMusic]

Haha!! You almost died to flash man!!!!!! And you use cheats!!

[guitarpro925]

u dont use cheats my ass i bet u would suck at this game if u didnt have turbo

[porkchop00000]

@guitarpro925 yo dumbass i have the game from the wii shop channel and i can fire that fast using the wiimote cuz i dont have a g-cube controller if u hate it that much dont watch or drop dead either way u make alot of ppl happy

[JacobDragyn]

Time freeze on Quick Man stage! (slaps head) So many hours wasted.

[dante404]

@JacobDragyn I know how you feel. But I eventually got good enough to beat it without freezing time, dying, or cheating. So I guess I was one of the best, back when I cared. Then I got laid and everything changed. (Hopefully most of the people on this page can tell the same story or something similar. LMAO).

[Dino63532]

Quick-Man Stage is the hardest!!!

[locsaretheshit]

I remember playing this years ago!!

[ICanHasVisit]

Dr. Light looks like Santa Claus! XD

[074Jesse]

4:15 XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MindMatters7]

Ain't turbo considered a "tool"? As in Tool Assisted Speedrun?

[erickjansenio]

megaman music is better

[Boothenson]

um it this the remake? you changed weapons without bringin up the menu. also if this is the remake then you have the ingame option of using turbo, turbo is NEEDED for a speed run of this game. so it really isnt cheating

[Bvon]

I agree with everyone else, using turbo is cheating. Sorry, IMO, this does not count.

[hughugh]

What a stupid opinion. Turbo was sold on a Nintendo branded device. Of course it's allowed.

[Bvon]

No, using turbo is widely considered cheating. Before you call anyone's opinion "stupid", maybe you should read the other comments that agree with my "stupid" opinion.

[hughugh]

jesus christ shut the fuck up

[Bvon]

Yeah, you are a bright one. Someone disagrees with you and you tell them to shut up. Love how you try and state your case.

[BleedItOut10]

Here, I'll just put an end to it. It's viewers discresion if turbo is cheating. I don't think it is because, as hughugh said, it was allowed on controlers made and distributed by Nintendo themselves.

[wolf3059]

@Bvon You're completely spot on with your supposedly stupid opinion. Megaman has always been a game of reflexes. Using a turbo controller completely eliminates one of those aspect.

[BecauselCan]

@Bvon It's stupidly called cheating. It's made to stop kids parents from getting soar thumbs. The people who belong in the group that say that turbo is cheating say that Nintendo itself supports cheating, therefore the "Turbo Button is a cheat" group IS the stupid one. The dude isn't cheating, he's doing something clever.

[S0ryiu]

@BecauselCan it's cheating because you are making the game do somthing the developers never intended through use of a third party device. (I get the feeling you support aim bots in online FPS games too don't you?) the point behind a speed run is to play the game vanilla, if he uses tools it invalidates his time.

[BecauselCan]

@S0ryiu First off, please, get a life, stop going around videos replying to 9+ month old comments. Second off, I'm a proud part of Call of Duty players that never have used cheats and never will. Third off, the point of a speed run is to beat the game with the best time you can achieve.. Fourth point. How is something Nintendo made a third party device on the Nintendo console?

[BecauselCan]

Fifth. Oh, enlighten me to that interview where Keiji said that he does not support the Turbo controller. Sixth and finally, please tell how to compare faster shooting of blips is the same as god mode, aimbot, unlimited power and health.

[S0ryiu]

@BecauselCan It's the same in that it defeats the point of a speed run (to show off your skill) when it's not your skill, it's the controller that is doing most of the work.

[BecauselCan]

@S0ryiu Please don't tell me that you see entertainment videos as only a show of skill and not for simple lulz.

[S0ryiu]

@BecauselCan then he should not label it "speed run" since a speed run is a showcase of one's skill measured by the time it takes them to complete the video.

[atypicalmystery]

@Bvon turbo is cheating. Aside from using a game genie, that was how you cheated on a nintendo. convinced your mom to buy you a turbo controller.

[shuasoul]

@Bvon but turbo is easier on the thumbs =D

[lothrazar]

@Bvon If turbo is cheating, then so is TAS - might as well get a computer to play.  I agree, both are lame.

[BulldozerNDF]

turbo button counts as a cheat dumbass.

doesnt count.

[theyear3000]

how is turbo cheating?

there were turbo controllers in the 80s/90s

[snazem]

There were also slowdown controllers, so slowing down the game by 1/4 the speed isn't cheats cause there were slowdown controllers in the 80s/90s

[RockChalk14]

I mean I know right? Why do people get all upset when someone uses a Game Genie...there were Game Genie's in the 80s/90s too...

[gaffelnskje]

thoose laser beams at quickmans stage,, they arent realy that hard to avoid.. i have never died there once XD or the first time i ever playd megaman 2, ofc i died there...

[sgc316]

turbo much?

[PhillyCadderly]

Yeah the guy is using a turbo controller. Very weak. But what do you expect from people trying to be the best? Steroids to turbo controllers. It's all the same.. FN cheaters

[YouReallySuuck]

My record is somewhere around 40-43 min if I remember correctly

[WarchiefBlackhand]

I actually always do air-man first for my speedier runs, because item 2 speeds up many levels and it re-fills after each level.

After him I do metal man.

[AgeOfAnarchy666]

Man I remember playing this game in my younger days. I always beat Metal Man cause he was easy in his fighting pattern and then after that, I go to Flash Man and beat him in like two seconds. Awesome stuff...I hated Quick Man...jerk face...

[Ragesauce]

always, always, always, ALWAYS do metal man first, if your doing a speed run of this game.

[sabel1]

no airman fist in speedruns... if u can handle him. item 2 is needed for speedruns!

[CosmicJulio]

true even with that slight help with the PS 2 version ......ITS FUCKING HARD

[l4st1st4nd1ng]

Speed running any game is difficult, no matter the game. The time spent in planning routes, the way you want to beat a boss...you definitely need to think like a programmer and be ready for enemies before they even appear.

Memorization of the levels, how much damage you can take to save time...everything.

I would go as far to say that anyone who is not able to see the patience required (and would rather blast someone for cheating), should try a speed run out.

Good work 'TheCraigen'!

[CosmicJulio]

Hes playing the PS2 version,it lets you change powers with i think the L2 and R2

[cheritebo]

how do you ghange weapons without going to the menu screen?

[G0Banana]

He does it so fast you can't tell. I've done it myself.

[michaeljoefox]

what i dont understand is how he changes from regular megaman to freeze megaman without pausing the game...

[AsterisKSC]

I wish everyone would shut up about everything that isn't the very basic things you could use when the console first came out.

Guess what assholes. Using glitches (WHICH ARE IN THE GAME IN THE FIRST PLACE), turbo (WHICH DOESN'T REQUIRE AN EMULATOR), or an emulator doesn't mean it takes less thought to put together.

The fastest time is about 24:33. A lot of people think it's cheating because it uses glitches. They fail to see the 100k+ rerecords, and the thought it takes to get that far. Idiots

[Saberwind45871]

@AsterisKSC glithces in a game are glitches for a reason, it was a mistake in the game that the developers tried to get rid of before final release which means its not cheating its a manipulation of the game which in my opinion is just as bad. its like super bouncing in halo 2 to reach high spots to snipe or glitching through walls in gears of war 2 during guardian mode, yes its part of the game but its a very cheap tactic that the developers didn't foresee

[mccarrero]

regular controller and turbo controller u can almost shoot the same speed

[ehorpeda]

i was somewhat pissed at a turbo controller at first, but not tool assisted was a big plus for me. tool assisted speed runs are pointless and not valid whatsoever.

[ch3m5k077]

turbo controller makes this null and void

[Darkwarrier91]

if you've got the tools use them, in this case turbo, but still no hacks or glitches so its all good

[jacoo66]

yeah finally not a tool assisted (cheating) speed run

[thesatanic6]

no cheats????? what do you call a turbo controller dumbass

[magnusdammit]

Cheap... but it's not like he hacked into the game and changed the hit detection or gave himself infinite gun energy

[thesatanic6]

its still cheating dude

[rocier]

Nice to see a speed run w/o cheats.

[ch3m5k077]

the turbo controller is one

[dhm640]

More a walktrough than a speedrun

[brackofthemountain]

Autofire is a cheat, you pussy.

[GhostSonic]

Autofire would be a lot quicker

[thesatanic6]

ummm no this is exacly what auto fire looks like

[magnusdammit]

Sure, the Turbo Controller made his life a lot easier, and sure, he did them in a really weird fuck order, and sure, it was probably done on a computer emulator, but at least he did it fast

[GhostSonic]

This was on the ps2, not an emulator

[thesatanic6]

sooo its still cheating

[magnusdammit]

Not cheating so much as just cheap for using a controller with a turbo feature.

[Flacosux]

I dont understand why speed runners dont just take some time to master Quick Man to take him on as the first boss. I'm not saying your run was bad or anything. Yea, Flash Man is easy, but the run would be much faster if Quick Man is taken out first. That boomerang is the shit against little enemies

[MetalSlug4311]

really nice speedrun how long did it take you to do that?

[we55y88o]

That was cheating, you used turbo controller. If you've got a regular one you'll notice that you only can fire three shots at the time.

[Icemunky]

he only fires three shots... -.- idiot

[we55y88o]

No. It's frickin' hard to keep that speed, with no changes. It's so obvious. And btw, he sucks.

[SerenadeBX]

Lmao. It doesn't matter if YOU say he sucks. I doubt you could do any better. So maybe you should post yourself doing this game rather then saying: "You suck."

[we55y88o]

I'm too lazy, and besides, I don't own a turbo-controller. I can say that he sucks how many times I want.

[wingnut4427]

Did you know the cheat on Mega Man 1 ? when You get Electric mans weapon. Shoot any enemy & pause the game. Wait for the flashing to stop & un pause & quickly re pause. keep doing this until your enemy is dead. Works every time ! Cheers !

[MegaFan1994]

Turbo controller. Not legit.

[N1run]

Cheatah, that was autofire! CHEATAH!

Well, I've just watched 30 seconds yet, I'll keep looking. Just please don't tell us you don't use cheats if you do

[shimokitakid]

Booo!!!!

Using Flash Stopper on the Quickman lasers?

[StaffandStormcloud]

nice gaming bro.

[cuneatus3]

please seed noob!

well done!

[Huonokaveri]

just some hints (im not criticising, in fact ure probably better than me,just trying to help), in situations where u cant avoid getting hit by the enemy u should just run forward and probably get hit since ure invilnerable for a shoort time after than and run through enemies, and as far as i know its best to do airman first, but anyway nice vid

[garrettmarcus]

turbo is weak...

[Huonokaveri]

Or no, im sorry yes u did rigth, flashman should be done first, sry sry

[MalcolmPauze]

fun fact: you can actually damage quick man with the time stopper

[Daandude1]

Lame, dont use a turbo controller.

[LukeChucky]

I used to have Mega Man 2 on the NES years ago. I recently bought a controller off ebay and have downloaded this and many other games i used to have and love. Mega Man 2 is the best of all the Mega Man games and one of the best games for the NES.

[neongreen0001]

Three letters- TAS

[230205]

using a turbo joystick is cheating my friend

[Musicman510ee]

yeah i was able to do a speed run for the anniversary collection version for gamecube with MM 2,3 and 4 but only because of the rapid shot button, i forgot which button it was but it definately made it easier

[cosmuru]

great speed run man, it's clearly you don't use any cheat, congrats.

I already have this version for PS2, great collection.

keep the good job!

(sorry for my terrible english, i'm from Brazil)

[EastLosX3]

Your english is better than most of the comments I read on youtube.

Good job!

[achmedlolol]

I always hated quickmans stage, its bullshit

[GorillaBorg]

Could have done a lot better on the first level.

[Daothes]

yeah, why get the tank?

[FreakonaleashX7]

awesome job :D

Metalman's stage always pwns me

[TheCraigen]

I dont even no how to use an emulator, its all me, i dont cheat. I bought the megaman aniversary collection, so its for ps2, the triangle button shoots faster shots. Hopefully I answered your question, thanks for commenting :)

[Karldaj]

@TheCraigen that's true the ps2 version has "auto" buttons

[acemanistheshit]

how do you shoot so fast? its like fully automatic or something. cant do that myself.. is it something you only can do on an emulator or what?
