[thief977]

1:07 Am I supposed to go there?

1:10 Apparently I am.

[MetroGamerX]

i like the shortcut you take when you grind that long ass rail.

[SuperMuellerBros]

WTF!!!

[Idekaks]

Wow.

Ooook, I'm just going to add you to my list of gods for the time being.

[thedarkelegy]

i wanna cut my self I TOUGH I WAS GOOD FINISH THIS LEVEL AT 3:45 !!!!!! T-T

[nevrest]

Holy.

Shit.

[JackyFappy]

0:49-0:58

Best Part

[RicksSpine565]

i know what im gonna do today!

[TheFreddyAT]

what does "TAS" mean?

[ShaniceBubb]

@TheFreddyAT Tool Assisted Speedrun

[GamePlayUK]

thats what the world fastest thing should move like!!

[acerocken]

DANG MAN, OH MY GOSH!!!! HE RAN ON THE DANGGONE WALLS!!!!

[jedimasterpickle3]

I love how this guy just spindashed up the wall to skip a major portion of the level. That was insane

[jackass7561]

LOL he dropped of the platform after he reached the goal

[MasterJabob4657]

I blinked and I think I missed half of it O.o

[Shadowlyger]

I love Sonic game speedruns. It always makes me think that this is how Sonic would actually run the level, if he didn't have slow-mos like us at the controls.

[HyperSonicXtreme]

Sonic: FUCK SUPER SONIC MODE!!!!

[WeirdBrainGoo]

Lol, I love how you picked the animal up! xD

[Zadamanim]

1:35 WAT.

[Nomad9]

So...there's more to you than just playing the level normally...what are you, anyway?

[Mewrulez99]

Uhh... Am I shit at this if the last time I did this level, it took me 9 minutes?

[AnimeAlAire]

0:44 ... :O

[zebdal]

sonic is spiderman

[Ooyo00]

..Sonic just fucking ran up the wall without even trying.

[Sokkbabek]

what a crazy player!!!

[sygnus5]

It just wouldn't be a sonic TAS without clipping through a wall at least once!

[IamMagicHD]

Sir, Are you god?

[Blizzardshot]

game's broken

[crashflyaway]

I was just comparing the times between this speed run and the run you have of mission 3, and this run seems to be 3 seconds slower than the other run, from when you leave to go get the chao in the other vid. I guess you could make this run even faster if you wanted to, is what I'm getting at :P

[BystanderLC]

God, I love the wall run.

[parapperdarapper]

0:50 - 0:58 Sonic: "Ninja Time" lolz

[xBowjobs]

Holy shit

[Lasimo14]

0:50

...ARE YOU SHITTING ME?

[megablueblaster]

00:50 My body wasn't ready...

[Superfast17]

i was drooling at the screen

[SpeakMyMind500]

damn im gonna see more of this.

[Spongetomic]

Would it be faster if you did the jump to skip the rail and land on the lower portion @0:18?

[xBowjobs]

@Spongetomic You fall slower than you grind, so no.

[Spongetomic]

@xBowjobs what if you use the bounce to fall faster? That's what most people do

[xBowjobs]

@Spongetomic Thats still slower. Try it yourself.

[AnimeAlAire]

@Spongetomic Yeah i said that 2

[JetAurion]

Sonic's in your physics, destroying your laws.

[tronmaster6]

@RedLupara oh i gotcha now thanks for informing me i was so confused lol

[DennisBalow]

@RedLupara Thanks :)

For telling him this!

[tronmaster6]

@RedLupara ty and is the tool like a hack?

[tronmaster6]

i found a really amazing glitch in the chao garden but i cant post a youtbe video showing it. u can go completely outside the garden and see the whole back of it

[tronmaster6]

can someone please tll me wat TAS is

[shadowtoast102]

Sonic {During the entire level}: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! TOO FAST! TOO FAST! I REALLY AM THE FASTEST THING ALIVE! TOO MUCH! TOO MUCH!

[shadowtoast102]

Sonic {During the entire level}: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! TOO FAST! TOO FAST!

[supersonic71097]

O____O;

[sa2bsonic101]

how do you do the spindash jump glitch at the end.

[icontrolyourworld]

holy fuck

[Lefonna]

Even Chuck Norris is screwed. He can't do better

[Callofgun]

TOTAL EPICNESS !!

the music goes perfectly with the run

[xMetalxSonicx]

Awesome work, man. Just beatiful.

I'm curious how the Wall Run works. It's only possible at Game Cube? There is some place where i can learn about it?

Hope you can enlighten me a little. =D

[DennisBalow]

@xMetalxSonicx Work on Dreamcast also! And it gives a few stages where you can use it! But its with Non TAS amost impossible! When you are not a pro! XD

[brendude95]

@DennisBalow

That was fucking amazing, my eyes are bleeding right now, it was AMAZING.

By the way, what does TAS mean?

[nightbane2]

@DennisBalow This is the German edition not the US version.

[TheAshOfOurFriends]

wall running.

...

WALL RUNNING

[redlerred7]

Technically son1cgu1tar isn't as good as what soniccenter says, he's rank 42 in SA2, Soniccenter says a guy named blazest is the highest ranked in SA2, while Darkspinesonic has the highest rank overall... Strange indeed

[DennisBalow]

@redlerred7 Its only so becuase he subbed not all Missions ;)

[deaurcy]

Son1cgu1tar is going to beat this.

[xShadowblade2193x]

@deaurcy It's impossible for him to beat this

[deaurcy]

@xShadowblade2193x I know; I was only kidding. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if he did.

[deaurcy]

@xShadowblade2193x Perhaps you are correct. But let us not forget that he has beaten TAS records that were allegedly "impossible to beat" or "perfect runs." But for the most part, it was a joke. =D

[redlerred7]

New one: If you angled that initial wall run at a 59-72 degrees instead of ~80~, you'd slice of aprx. 18ms. also: the part where you trick jumped to one of those inclined hang overs then you spin-jump-bounce-homed to a lower hangover, a wall run was possible and cloud have save you some ms

[daimondylan]

i suck ass my record is 5:32 =(

[EarthboundD2]

At about 00:19, isn't it faster to do that bounce move to go directly to the lower rail? I'm no speed runner, and I haven't played this game in ages, so I could easily be very wrong. I just remember doing it when I was younger and feeling impressed with myself :)

[redlerred7]

@DennisBalow this run is improvable (nothing isn't) 0:15 - 0:18, bounce clipped a bit on to the platform and I'm not sure but would it be faster if you bounced directly into the right rail? 0:43 - 0:45, While you were running to the "up rails" the one on the right was 9 px (in HD) closer. 0:46 - 0:47, you'd slice of 20ms if you stayed 5px mnearer to the middle (you'd start your grind faster). 1:24 - 1:27, go for a bounce if possible. 1:29 - 1:31, bounce down to the lower rail possible? Good man

[redlerred7]

You finally put the Green Forest Wall Walk in final rush! Awesome run man

[gamerboyQ16]

this glitch was amazing i`d never ecxpect that this gonna happen

[EnsignEpic]

That was fucking incredible.

[NonRandomUser]

Apparently, the word "gravity" does not exist in Sonic's dictionary.

[EpicSuperWin]

so, does this mean that SM's trick at the beginning to skip all the checkpoints is now obselete?

[cxgamer]

Speedcore on the background would be more fitting.

[schutzy111]

like...a...BOSS!!!!! you sir are professional!

[ANDRESIWTO]

very good

[sa2bsonic101]

i tried this glitch. i managed to spindash up to 3rd checkpoint. it's really hard.

[PrinceShion]

NO FUCKING WAY! D:

[eMsylf]

Hm... I thought this was Sonic's normal speed?

[SuperYoshi1karter]

Is the wall running possible on console ? This made me shit a brick.

[talon2461]

@SuperYoshi1karter yes it is, it's called gravity control

[stootab]

that was cool!

[MsTitomix]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG AWESOMEEE!!!!!! :O O_O :D

[sa2bsonic101]

best sa2b tas! must try the crazy wall spindashing.

[FrAsCaS07]

WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN

[eyal1231]

(: !!

[EmilSM64]

These levels are extremely big :0

[ShadowJacky]

so wall climbing is going to become a frequent trick now I see.

this is getting insane.

[xAfterDawnx]

@ShadowJacky i can't think of any other levels off the top of my head where this trick can be used, except for maybe pyramid cave.

@sonicpacker good luck

[redlerred7]

@xAfterDawnx it's seen in city escape and green forest. No Video but I accidentally found my self running on a wall in radical highway. I experimented, you can do this on the outside-side of the road barriers. I laughed out loud when I saw my self do that during demo playback. With action replay, it can be played on mission street, wild canyon, I'm not sure about this, but try to do this in cannon's core, if you find any spots

[xAfterDawnx]

@redlerred7 i mean practical use that can actually be used in a speedrun

[redlerred7]

@xAfterDawnx I averaged 1min 47 sec with radical highway. using that trick, I managed 1min 25sec,

Also, another tas trick is wall jumping which Dennis has done in his latest green forest speed run

[pluralverb]

Newton is spinning in his grave. In a good way!

[bahamete]

no words can describe how good I think this is. You and sonicpacker should work together on any% ;)

[shadowdsfire]

Omg it was so fast I was about to have a mental seizure

[frankoredstrato]

wonderfull! how much time did you spend to do this TAS?

[sonicpacker]

i will beat this in my full game tas :)

[AppleCider56]

That was pretty awseome.

[AZaxe]

Omg!! Wtf lol

[brianpso]

FUCK THAT SHORTCUT!!! No words O.O

[Nahoc10]

^_^

[Dopeboy175]

I'm just speechless...

[krawky398]

Oh god, this is amazing. The wall running was especially awesome.

[mapler90210]

Damn, you beat me to it. I've been wondering if that was possible since something similar happened to me earlier in the level, but i couldn't find any way to make it work. Fantastic TAS, Dennis. Truly wonderful.

[diddykong14]

I liked the wall glitch

[DennisBalow]

@diddykong14 More a trick, as a glitch! because is not a game error! XD

[nightbane2]

@DennisBalow Why do you say you have the US version when the text is German?

[cyborg98]

The way Sonic was meant to be played.

[tdivv41]

NOW THAT"S SPARTA

[SadisticMystic]

Finally, the game gets a definitive TAS trick.

[xAfterDawnx]

WHAT THE FUCK

you guys figured out how to fucking run up the wall instead of having to superbounce and go up the rails?

fucking INSANE

[Knyku]

Whoa nice TAS.
