Halo 2 Speed run gets in Guinness record book
http://www.planetxbox360.com/index.p...tails/show/259
Halo 2 player and speed runner, Cody Miller, has been inducted into the Guinness World Records 2007 for completing Halo 2 on legendary difficulty without dying once. Some of you may remember the Twin Galaxies halo 2 bounty. Fastest time through the game on Legendary wins 250 dollars, however one stipulation was that you could not die. At first I thought beatign the game in one go on Legendary with zero deaths was impossible, however the more I thought about it, the more it looked like it could be done. A few days ago I did just that, Legendary with zero deaths. The time from the xbox startup to the credit's end is 3hrs 28 min. I mailed the tape in today, and it's not official until it's reviewed by Twin galaxies, but I think this proves it can be done. Basically it involves a lot of persistance, and some luck. I've been trying on and off to do this since it was announced last december. ------------------- Damn, Legendary without dying once? INSANE! Critics agree: Quote:

I wouldn't say its pathetic. To beat a FPS all you need is to know the map and the enemy lay out and the rest is just about reflexes, really.
Plus there are alot of records out there more pathetic than beating a game in 3 hours. Like "Farthest Spaghetti Nasal Ejection". |

....and? Your just gonna leave us hanging? I wanna know how far and who's record i will break.
On a side note, those Guinness records are WAY to specific. Like 'Longest fart by a 13 year in his home on a saturday night at 7:13pm eastern time while in the living room watching The Simpsons' |

I think he's a moron but whatever.
Anyway, Anyone think they could be in a record book for game related stuff? I bet I could be. |

Well youd have to record it (obviously) but seems like the only thing the record books look at as 'legit' is speed wise, youd have to do a speed run. I dont think you could pull off anything else (ie: most melee kills in 2min on Halo 2).
hmmm...someone should look this stuff up, and we should try to snap some records in the name of the Dub. |

I've completed Wind Waker over 6 times without dying once. Will that make it in? Very doubtful.
I can do the original Super Mario Bros game in no time at all without dying and without "tool assistance". Just running non stop. Uhhh, I'm sure theres more but I can't think right now. |

I'm sure I read a PacMan record in one of the books. Can't remember what it was.

pathetic maybe, but still impressive.
I think I've played Halo 2 about 3 times, that game sucks. As does Halo. |

I've never been impressed with speed runs, they're so... solo.
And has impressive it is speed run Halo 2 on Legendary, it is pretty much knowing the map and enemy layout. If I had the time and drive, if any of us did, the record wouldn't be so special. It's more a reward for who has the time and motivation to do such a thing. And it sure as Hell don't mean jack in a multiplayer environment. I see it like those gay 8-hit combo vids in Tekken (or double-digit shit in 2D fighters); "Meh, let's fight already." |

Well three things that I can do in videogames I have not seen others do is:
1) Beat the first level of Medal of Honor blindfolded 2) Nearly beat Mario Bros 3...Using only my feet. 3) Snipe with a shotgun. or similar weapon, and get a OHK. ![]() |

When somebody teaches themselves to play videogames with their feet, and they have 2 able bodied arms, is where I lose all respect for said person.

If that is the only game you have, and you can beat it without dying once with your hands you tend to look for something a little more challenging if your low on money and can't afford another game.

I know that, I usually spend alot of time outside, its that I don't live near alot of people, in my younger years, so rainy days I played games. Otherwise I was building crap, and playing basketball by myself.
