I think you're missing critical thinking skills...or is that reading comprehension?

BTW, it's dyslexic.

i think someone beat metroid prime in an hour and 36 minutes and 7 seconds, with a 100% rating. Wonder how that guy accomplished that! Dang!

swordsplay he already said that.

I saw that mario video a while ago.

I mean he would get one ups 20 at a time. Insane insane insane.

Wow... That was new to me and I think it was pretty amazing! Did he use a cheat code to skip a lot of the levels or something? I couldn't believe his skills on those Cannon Balls!

Myxtika1 Azn · « **Reply #12 on:** December 06, 2003, 07:46:09 PM »

He didn't use any cheat codes to skip levels. He used the warp whistles he got from levels 3 and the fortress in World 1.

Swordsplay · « **Reply #13 on:** December 08, 2003, 08:06:23 AM »

whats the website link so i can see that metroid prime one?

more impressive is seeing people get high scores in games
like the relatively recent donkey kong high score world record,
i believe beating an easy game fast takes talent but achieving the highest score at
a hard game takes genius. and alot more effort and time

vudu · « **Reply #16 on:** December 12, 2003, 09:08:48 AM »

i'd like to disagree, joeamis.

getting a high score at a hard game such as donkey kong is based on repetition. many of those classic arcade games had limited ai. because of that, memorizing a simple pattern was often enough to get though an entire game with a high score. (pac-man comes to mind.) thus, it becomes an exercise in remembering what to do and when, instead of reacting to the game.

also, i hear that the guy who beat smb3 in 11 minutes cheated. he used an emulator to slow down the game, and he would save repeatedly and load the game if he messed up. then he went back an edited the video.

i actually noticed what i thought to be a glitch in the video in one of the tank levels (i can't remember which one) where it looked like mario got hit by a cannon ball, then magically warped above it and jumped on it. i passed it off as being a problem with the direct feed. looks like it might have been a case of creative editing.

Myxtika1 Azn · « **Reply #17 on:** December 12, 2003, 02:07:34 PM »

I think I know the part you are talking about. The thing is though, if you look at the points when he lands on another cannonball/enemy/whatever, the points is doubled that of the last one. That can't happen if he touches the ground, and he wouldn't be able to get 1-Ups the way he did.

vudu · « **Reply #18 on:** December 13, 2003, 07:33:38 AM »

i read that the guy constantly saves the game. so if he missed a jump, he could load back up from where he messed up and continue as normal. as long as he edited it correctly, no one would be the wiser.

Myxtika1 Azn · « **Reply #19 on:** December 13, 2003, 07:43:23 AM »

Hm.... I would think that if he saves snapshots, then the message "Snapshot Saved" would show up on the screen. Perhaps there's a way to make the messages not show up on screen?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #20 on:** December 13, 2003, 07:50:02 AM »

I'm fairly positive it's possible to suppress that message.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #21 on:** December 13, 2003, 08:01:31 AM »

I think people are just pissed off they can't do it themselves, so they make up rumors.

Majexto · « **Reply #22 on:** December 14, 2003, 04:45:56 AM »

Uhh, wasnt it beat by using bugs in the game? Not by skill. Correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure he just used allt he bugs in the game.

ib2kool4u912 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 14, 2003, 06:16:42 AM »

He didnt use any bugs in the game. If he really did cheat it was by using an emulater and screwing with the speed and saving all the time or something like that. If he didn't cheat with the emulaer then it was all by skill not a bug in SMB3.

Majexto · « **Reply #24 on:** December 14, 2003, 06:33:01 AM »

Ooh, ok, I saw that a long time ago and I was told it was beat by using glitches/bugs. My bad sorry, thanks for clearing that up.
