Resident Evil 4 Speed Run 4-1 Part 1

This is a speedrun of Resident Evil 4 for Gamecube, part 11A of 19(one part per chapter). I finally figured out Windows Movie Maker, so I`m uploading the missing segments which were previously too long. With that, note that I broke up the video itself due to Youtube Length restrictions, but the actual playing is continuous. The entire run can now be seen in its entirety here. If you like this run, be sure to head over to speeddemosarchive.com to see the games we already have runs for, as well as preview upcoming runs.

4-1

Yet another long start to a new chapter. To start things off, I probably should have switched to the flash grenade right away instead of waiting until I killed that guy blocking my path. Because it was at the beginning of the segment, I easily could have retried until I dodged him. Anyways, I use a flash grenade to knock off the zealot controlling the dragon which blocked the way to the chest because none of my other weapons seemed strong enough to break the locks efficiently, and shooting him from the side after waiting for the fire to be blown in the middle proved to be too time consuming. This did, however, set me back, as I was a grenade short for the Knights in the following part. Luckily, however, there was a flash grenade conveniently placed on a chair just barely off the beaten path. I shot the falling ceiling tiles before they descended, saving a few seconds(even though it was a bit slow), and I may have been a bit slow killing the second zealot in the killing machine, though I don't know for sure. Right before the knights room, there are suits of armor you have to dodge. During the time where it prompts you to dodge its attack by hitting a button combination, you can walk or run in any direction. The knight attacks too fast to completely dodge the attack, as shown by the second knight, but this is still beneficial because instead of losing five or more steps during the dodge back flip, you only lose those five steps minus the length you managed to go before pressing the dodge buttons. I discovered this trick on these knights, which is why you don't see me use it with Ashley, and I figured it didn't save enough time to warrant a re-run of the previous segment. The actual Knight 'boss' battle went pretty well, though every bit of ammo I picked up proved to be wasted time. One of my biggest regrets of this run was the use of the yellow herb. I didn't mean to pick it up; when I was running toward the door, I was simply tapping 'A' in anticipation of the door, and I accidentally picked it up. It did, however, prove to be moderately useful by the end of chapter five. I got pretty lucky in the hallway right after the Knight battle, as, despite several extremely close calls, I managed to get through un-damaged. Too bad I couldn't say the same for the Novistador nest room. It was all going perfect: I ran to the switch, shot down the bridge fairly well (I only missed once, but it was a quick-fix), turned around, kicked a couple of novistadors, then one grabbed me. Had I run a few steps farther, I'd have been able to kick the approaching novistador, and continue on my merry way. This, of course, didn't happen, but luckily that was the only damage taken in that room. In the clock tower, I should have re-loaded at the bottom as I waited for the dynamite to explode, but Luckily Leon reloads fairly quickly. In my opinion, the zealot who grabbed me at the bottom either should have missed, or grabbed my back, as I wasn't even close to facing him when I got grabbed. The next parts went pretty well, though, as I was recording the run, I thought I had missed the garrador with the rifle shot, which was the reason I reloaded. I should have switched to the rocket as soon as I bought it from the merchant, as Leon seems to run faster with it, and picking up the incendiary grenade was pointless because I used an alternate strategy for Krauser.

did the shild guys called "mataro"? lol that was fun

[TBright5]

"Mátalo" meaning "Kill it/him." But with the unadulterated pwnage I was dealing, "Motaro" would have been an accurate nickname ;)
