[KaitoKun72]

[abayomijokez]

how do you go that big jump at 58 secs

[baldwia2]

His boost gauge level is Over 9000! (had to be said)

[TheAshSonic]

i can beat your time, without skills. i got 01:43:09

[TheAshSonic]

@TheAshSonic wait thats the demo...

[Diozide]

1:28, Use the wall jump, It improoves your time by about 2 seconds.

[FFIIInerd]

didnt even know your boost meter could go that high

[Terry1212]

Check out my 1:35.95 ;)

watch?v=bP-3EfU99sA

[DarkFrozenDepths]

that's why they remade the boost gauge. that got insanely long

[Basrohs]

S is for SHIT BRICKS! HOLY DAMN THAT WAS FAST!

[ahafeez66]

@Basrohs S is for suck it i got a 1:44 once

[Basrohs]

@ahafeez66 Pics or didn't happen.

[PaperSonic2007]

@ahafeez66 My current fastest time is 1:41.63; the second fastest time on the 360 leaderboards, at the moment. And even then, that can be improved.

[ahafeez66]

@PaperSonic2007 the fastest on PS3 is 1:39.03

[ToaMahriNika]

I don't have the game yet <XD

[Spanko91]

wooh 1:46:85

[pinoy518]

son of a bitch! i got 1:43.70!

[pinoy518]

i got 1:47:38

[NoNamePTuga]

i got 1:47:51 :D

[Timely]

I blinked and saw the end of the Video.

[SaintBernardly]

.... Now thats how you play Sonic..

[Deadeye287]

mine is 1:51:34 but still workin on it, what i wanna know is how the fuck that one guy got 1:41:86 its a friggin siiick run!

[donthate9000]

i never played the game so i don't have a record.

[RicksSpine565]

NOW THATS A SPEED RUN

[pinoy518]

i got 1:48:50

[AdeebJaber]

Damn it. I can't get below 1:51:50 and I want to enter that contest!

[SocialDevelopmentSex]

My record is 1:48:04.

[JamBugz7]

i thought my time was good, then I see this!? fml

[swordsmen208]

even though sonic in unleashed (360) and generations have the same boost. the blue stuff around sonic is slightly bigger in generations and he has a faster running animation

[kenonerboy]

nice trix bro, I got 1.50. with the *offficial demo* ofcourse. the official one got allot of boost modifits. I think it starts out slower, and the bar cant reach that lenth.

[Batsanes]

If they released this on the Wii Mario would've gone bust!

[skatelord141]

i got 01:50 in the new demo crap your fast

[KiLLeRsGunnZz]

Damn, my best is 1:48.34 xD YOu beat me lol

[MarioSegaFreak]

1:27 SO MUCH BOOST

If the game has boost gauge extenders, it will be awesome.

as in, being to hold more boost.

[pinoy518]

@gridhacker i know that but i wonder if he did it in a specific sequence to make his moves faster or to get more boost.

[pinoy518]

Is there a specific sequence for the air tricks? If so please tell.

[gridhacker]

@pinoy518 only move the left stick in any direction you want and for a finisher, which is not obligatory, press L1+R1 altogether :)

[pinoy518]

I got 1:50

[DreamerGuy2000]

I got 1:57 ;)

[Anthony13USA]

I got 1:58 in the newer demo, I think in that build they changed al ot more than the way you gain boost from tricks. I never played the old version but it looks like in this one you can jump while your in boost. You can't in the new demo, I've tried many times and Sonic just keeps running.

[pinoy518]

@supersonicdrawer i tried it in the demo. All you gotta do is boost while coming out of the slide and then while holding the boost you also press the jump button. The boost is used to keep the speed going while you are destroying the robots. Make sure you hold the boost until you go through the orange ring.

[pinoy518]

Sonic has been my favorite video game character of all time and the only reason i became a cross country runner. Watching this and knowing the fact that i reserved this game makes me wanna cry. (T wT) I even made a pair of his shoes out of my running shoes so i can use them during practice.

[fettarm222xD]

that was a great job. you are very good that was speed

[kenakuma]

The best I got today with the new demo is a 1:56 :)

Route wise the only difference is that I take the wall jump part towards the end but after watching your vid I'm gonna have to try it the other way around, thanks!

[RadRiardos]

Oh snap, I got 1:46. I feel awesome.

[X011I3X]

Just seen your more recent speedrun, christ... i've got some work to do xD

[X011I3X]

I've got 1:48.37, i noticed there's certain aspects in your speedrun that I didn't think of, and there's some aspects of mine which could certainly be of use to you

[sonic4life222]

i mad i got 1.49

[davidpaw22]

Did they have drifting in this new DEMO? What control the drift?

[gridhacker]

@davidpaw22 R2/L2, but it's not necessary to complete the level, it is possible to do so though ;)

[davidpaw22]

@gridhacker Thank you. I will try this out this week. Also, what control the combo, Left or Right analog stick? I already know the Finish Combo.

[gridhacker]

@davidpaw22 left. right is useless, it really doesnt do anything since the camera is immovable ;)

[davidpaw22]

@gridhacker Which analog stick left or right? please

[gridhacker]

@davidpaw22 left. left does everything, while right does absolutely nothing :) if you got it 2 work let me know

[gridhacker]

At 1:06 if it was the real game you would have won the trophy/achievement Trickstar ;)

[jackass7561]

@gridhacker maybe but its possible to get up to 7 combo tricks and land a finish. i do it all the time

[gridhacker]

@jackass7561 i get 7 trick combos without finish and 6 w/finish, i can't do anything else... xD but it takes practice... and yes you would have got Trickstar, as you would get GREEN HILL Restored! when finishing Act 2 ;)

[jackass7561]

@gridhacker just keep press down from the stick not the analog sticks, the other ones and as u hit 7th combo quickly press finish

[jackass7561]

@gridhacker it doesnt really take practice since i mastered the games in 3 tries of act 2

[gridhacker]

@jackass7561 well i kept hitting L1+R1 and that was I couldn't get any more than 2 combos, when I found out you had to move the analog stick I was so mad... but the trophies will be easy, except for Cant Touch This (whoever had the idea, you screwed us up, at least if time eater is hard)

[gridhacker]

@gridhacker this was only the first 2 times or so btw

[jackass7561]

@gridhacker lol yh

[CassiveBrewster]

Wow! My fastest time is only 1:55!

[DanDaMaN95cov]

PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO GET EXTRA BOOST IN COMBO TRICKS I KEEP ON PRESSING UP 1:00 ON XBOX D PAD AND LB AND RB AFTER 5TH COMBO FOR FINISHER BUT HARDLY GET ANY EXTRA BOOST PLEASE HELP MY IM PLAYING ON THE DEMO THAT WAS RELEASED HE WEEK AND NOTHING HAS CHANGED

[TheProphet375]

@DanDaMaN95cov You're probably doing only one direction on your D-pad for tricks, which gets you less boost then doing different directions while doing tricks. Plus when you know you're combo is about to finish, press the left and right bumpers to get a "Finish" which gets you a lot more boost then a normal tricks would. Hope this helps :D

[paulricikeman]

i wasnt aware your boost bar could get that high....dear God

[sonicslayton]

I recently got 1:47 on this stage PaperSonic...i think one main thing i did was on the first grind rail where you boost instead of switching with the stick...i do a "quick hop" on to the other one...and also at the end when you slam through the bridge i boost RIGHT AFTER i hit the ground..question though..does anyone know how to "cash out" during the trick strings?

[wiidollar]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!

[supersaiyanmikito]

Sorry dude but... 1:47.47

[Paraxade0]

How do you maximize the amount of boost you get out of tricks? Having a hard time figuring it out <.< I dunno if they changed it since the June demo.

[PaperSonic2007]

@Paraxade0 Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your stance on the matter), they made it impossible to accumulate boost this quickly from tricks in the newer build. To maximize the amount of boost you got in the June demo, you just held a single direction down and you'd auotomatically gain as much as you see here. In the current build, you have to alternate directions to maximize the amount you get. It doesn't seem like there's any other way to get more beyond that though...

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@PaperSonic2007 Small change, but makes it a bit more challenging! I like it :)

[supersonicdrawer]

@PaperSonic2007 hi, could you please tell me how you do the trick at 1:36. how on earth do you manage to destroy the enemies in the air WHILE BOOSTING. i just cant do it. is there a certain button combination you need to do.

[RobloxDrifter1123]

@PaperSonic2007 SEGA had a statue of sonic give to whoever beat 1:50 on Green Hill Modern.

[000ThatsLife000]

@RobloxDrifter1123 WAIT WHAAT???? Im confused of what you meen

I can beat it in 1:49 I want a statue...

[Jacktheinfinite101]

Ohhh I came so close to beating you on the new demo: 1:48.46

[highguy1011]

sonic's voice acter is roger c. smith

[Batsanes]

1:21 look at that boost power! Amazing!

[kennysuavo]

whoa!!! epic!! i hope paraxade0 is up for a challange!!

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@kennysuavo .......GenoCideNT......THAT is a challenge for both of them. He got 1:43:92. So far an all time RECORD.

[Ausholliday15]

perfect!!!



[ZylerxPSN]

@PaperSonic2007

You, sir.. are the king of speed. I salute you.

[SOnicburn20]

The best part I'd really like about the modern version is the speed dash. When I played sonic unleashed, I kept using speed dash to run and bash though enemies. I like the part where sonic is being chased by flying machine that shoots lasers.

[HypotheDragon]

I wonder if the dash panels will actually make you go faster this time rather than slow you down like in Unleashed. Then we won't have to make hurdles over them (despite how cool that looked).

[TheRandomguy505]

excellent speed run i hope i can be as good as you when i get a go at this level

[FluffMaster101]

One more month.

[pinoy518]

@hondaman

I PRAY IT DOES. BOOST THATLL LAST ABOUT 2 OR 3 MINUTES SOUNDS AWSOME!

[InfinitiveShadow]

I don't see why people are upset that Generations isnt on the Wii. The Wii got Sonic Colors, but Xbox 360 and PS3 didnt.

[pinoy518]

@sonicboy

How are they different? Also does the speed boost actually go past the meter in the real game or is this because it was hacked?

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@pinoy518 It is a special 'hidden' move that adds speed to your quick step, and a LOT of speed. It may not look different, but trust me, it makes a difference. And yes it will. The final build of the game has pretty much been leaked and that is a feature. Happy boosting :P

[pinoy518]

I thout the quick step was in this game cuz i saw it in the greenhill and city escape gamplay trailers.

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@pinoy518 But he was taking about the move, not the regular Quick Step. The QSS and Quick Step are completely different.

[pinoy518]

Wasnt the sonic drift in here when he turns into a ball and skids sideways. And what do you mean by QSS?

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@pinoy518 QSS stands for quick step slide. It's a move in Unleashed that REALLY comes in handy for speed runs. What you do is hold down the B(360) or O(PS3) button down, and spam the shoulder buttons. Also yes the drift is in there, he must have made a typo error =)

[StrykerJC]

how did you get act 2?

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@StrykerJC Refer to Jacktheinfinite101's channel, he did a whole awesome tutorial.

[supersaiyanmikito]

It awesome having a record for a game that isn't even out yet. As far as I know, I have the best time for City Escape.

[wildjaredissowild]

Awesome, awesome, awesome! But man... epic fail at timing your boost at late 1:54 . It had to be either you, or the landing. In Sonic Colors, I had no problems with landing like that. I could boost right after that.

I'm guessing.... It's you.

[ProkoLokor]

How's the homing attack doing? Is it "Jump-jump" or "jump-another button" like in Unleashed?

[XxMrmoneyKing]

@ProkoLokor Another button

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@ProkoLokor X -> X (PS3) or A -> A (360)

[CrashSG32]

How did you record the video in HD?

[MaddZekrom999]

I think the reason they took out the QSS was because they wanted to slow it down for newbies. And do you use a Hauppauge cos that quality is amazing!

[Jacktheinfinite101]

1:31 it depends on luck when wall jumping, so your best bet is don't rely on it.

1:51 I never had that problem, the air boost would respond fine for me.

BTW CONGRATS! To my knowledge this is the fastest run of Modern GHZ out there right now.

[UNCHARTEDuniverse]

AWESOME SPEED RUN!

That must have taken a great deal of trial an error!

[Sonicandshadow557]

OMG U R A PRO

[Gravitylol]

did you saw the boost meter?! IT'S FUCKING HUGE!

[daangelo29]

I kinda prefer Sonic performing his Air Stomp in a similar manner as his Bounce Attack in Sonic Adventure 2. Don't ya guys think so? :)

[pheonix1549]

How did you get this

[TheSonicblur]

you know?the finish in the combo tricks is an SA pose

[shadowblood12]

daaamn is there a limit 2 the boost meter? plz respond

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@shadowblood12 It stretches all the way across the screen dude!!!! 8D

[shadowblood12]

@SONICBOYREBORN234 man now sonics the fastest thing alive no question with his never ending boost haha

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@shadowblood12 Heck yeah he is!!! :D

[MrCartoonLover777]

@SONICBOYREBORN234 Yeah! It was so high it didn't go down for a while!!! That's insane!!!!

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@MrCartoonLover777 You just gotta keep those combos going and your in check. Just like Rush :D

[SonicandInuyasha]

Nice run! I can't to get a ps3 to get this game.

[SonicKingSpeedX]

i wonder how far would that speed boost meter go even though it can go across the screen i wounder would it make a second row of boost...

[wizzlekidd]

in your description, what did you mean by 'QSS' ? quick side step is what im guessing..

[PaperSonic2007]

@wizzlekidd Good guess; you were very close. QSS actually stands for "Quick Step Slide". In Sonic Unleashed, if you hold the Slide button while repeatedly tapping the Quick Step buttons, you'll gain a huge amont of speed, making it an indispensible tool for speedruns. As Lightdasher360 pointed out, it added a lot more depth to speedrunning than just boosting and taking the fastest route, so it's really a shame that it got axed for Generations.

[Jordanthehedghog100]

@PaperSonic2007 o_o that was Awsome this is cool =D

[Anon7906]

@PaperSonic2007 You serious? No more QSS?  D: Can you still infinite drift?

[Jacktheinfinite101]

@Anon7906 Drifting won't make you move faster in this one.

[Anon7906]

@Jacktheinfinite101 Darn, infinite drift and QQS are out. T_T Oh well.

[buytoytroy1]

@PaperSonic2007 there is drift u have to jump and drift before u hit the ground then your drifting in rolling in modern

[Febreeze75]

how do you do the combos?

[richardbmoney]

@Febreeze75 Flick the Left stick in any direction after dashing on a rainbow ramp, or going through a rainbow ring.

[wizzlekidd]

@richardbmoney and how do you do a 'finish' ?

[richardbmoney]

@wizzlekidd Press both bumpers at the same time.

[Febreeze75]

They need to make the 3Ds version more like this

[Chaosemerald252]

I'd much rather play this than a spangonia demo, if i wanted spangonia, i would put my Sonic Unleashed copy in.

[badcoin]

This game has some Epic boost meter XD

Epic run tho

[Paraxade0]

man this game is going to be awesome. great run.

[Sonicfanallways]

Light Speed Dash where is it. Haven't seen that yet. Good run though

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@Sonicfanallways You can use it anywhere, but the level I only see rings that are supposed to be Lightspeed Dashed are in City Escape.

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

Subscription!

[1stkirbyever]

Amazing speed run is amazing.

[baldfalk]

I'm pretty sure that fixing QSS would have been high on their priority list because of how retarded it looked and how 'cool' Sonic is supposed to be. What actually is a shame is that there's no replacement OFFICIAL mechanic to push that last 10% for hardcore speedrunners. :( (Come on, Sega, it's obviously a healthy part of the community)

...Unless someone finds a similar glitch in Generations after it comes out, I guess. :V Here's hoping.

[Lightdasher360]

Gosh, look at that boost gauge go! It's really too bad that the quick-stepping and drifting speed glitches don't work here. They really give speed-running a lot more depth than just taking the right path, pushing forward, boosting, and yada yada...

[UberSonicFan3]

Boost To Win



[SegaTidbits]

@UberSonicFan3 Or how about, "Not boost, and still win." ¬_¬...

[BaconStein]

I said it before and I'll say it again. This is how Colors should've been - a spiritual successor, not a simplistic regression. Nice to finally see someone do this stage justice. Good show, sir. I look forward to tearing these levels apart myself. Can't wait to see how the Japanese speed runners destroy this game. Side note, I love Modern Sonic's results animations. They make me giggle every time.

[KoopalmierMario]

@BaconStein : Colors was kind of SEGA saying "Sorry, Wii Sonic fans, Unleashed sucked for you. Here's a better version". Unleashed speed may look confusing without the Hedgehog Engine too (or not. Look at F-Zero).

[Jarrell444]

1:03 SONIC ADVENTURE POSE

1:23 SONIC ADVENTURE POSE AGAIN

[SegaTidbits]

@Jarrell444 YOU FORGOT 2:06 !! For a brief moment, you could see it. ;)

[Jarrell444]

@SegaTidbits AAAAAHAHHHHH howd i miss it D:

[Febreeze75]

After 2:26 I realized I jizzed

[SuperSonicSoundwave]

@Febreeze75 umm... eww?

[SonicFFVII]

the large boost gauge he got represents how awesome this game is going to be

[SweaterSwagg]

Insane boost levels are insane

[905SONICking]

im piss at you i will be king of sonic the hedgehog

[sonukhan12]

@905SONICking who died to make him the king of sonic the hedgehog

[Bugsyae]

@905SONICking Dude , get a life -__-

[dabestgamer]

The Sonic Center. That is all.

[BladeCrashic122]

I was hoping for QSS i've modded both demos, ps3 and xbox last month, but i cant play them because my consoles are too up to date to mod
