http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzlGPl6EBdk = part 1
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zngYCEQN-zk = part 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdGhwbGllM8 = part 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yti3hZwqWC8 = part 4

part 1 is probably the most boring. if you start on part 2 you'll be watching straight from the interesting stuff.

the middle of part 3 (rocks falling) and the beginning of part 4 (bullet dodging) is insane.

and yes, i did make this. more info at http://tasvideos.org

going to make a compilation clip soon of all of the craziest parts so you can just watch that and such.

Damn, wait a while!

I like TAS'es, a whole lot. It is very interesting seeing all the little glitches that can be exploited (Especially the Megaman ones).

I am excited over the idea of Megaman 3, 4, 5, AND 6 being runned all at the same time.

I've always been curious as to how long it takes to put one of these together.

deepbluevibes · 07-26-2006, 06:18 PM

it depends.

mine took me about a week, five or so hours a day.

the main part of it is which are you going for?

I went for entertainment, not just pure speed. with shinobi this makes it easy because there are so many glitches i exploited and fun/crazy shit i did to make as much of the video interesting as i could.

if you're going for speed, some games are good for this, some are not.

I would say your first time go for entertainment, as it's easier to do, and then 2nd time do speed.

Didn't someone else from here do a TAS?
It was a Ranma 1/2 game... but then I draw a blank.

BTW, GREAT videos!

The X1 and X2 video was pretty awesome, I think he had a demo of a quad game too, although it ran horrendously. I think it was X1, X2, X3 and MM8. MM3-6 hopefully is less CPU intensive, they're fun to watch, but not at around the same rate they play the game at

deepbluevibes · 07-27-2006, 01:54 AM

almost done with the compilation video...

btw, is anyone in here interested in shooters (dodonpachi, giga wing, etc.)? someone should start up a topic for it, yes it would go in arcade/coin-op...

if i weren't talking about mame/ps2/dreamcast etc.

In thread for it, someone mentioned another speed run of multiple games (I'll have to look at the thread to remember what it was). If you know what it was, could it be possible to tell me where I could get my hands on it?

(Besides the Megaman X1-2, and the X1-3 MM8 ones) (Well maybe the X1-3 MM8 (I don't remember what it was))
*Goes to search thread*

AHA!
NMcCoy mentioned a "SMB3-All Stars 1-1 and 1-2 and SMW Yoshi's Island 2" run...Does anyone have this?
He (I assume) also mentioned a desynced SMB3 run (Two out of sync copies of SMB3 runned at the same time.)... does anyone have this too?

How? I can't take video, and pictures wouldn't really prove it (i don't get all of the bees), and i play on mame so i bet that makes it unlegit or something, but i have no reason to lie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GQ3od9MfHA shows me playing some ABA shooter games, just to prove i've got skill, even though i've done way harder than that and so is ddp
