It's possible with out the tools it's just stupidly harder. I guess it's just an easier way of showing what's possible. The main thing used as far as I know is outside slowdown assistance. Or extremely tricky inputs you have to do repeatedly over and over they macro. Yeah it's on par with cheating for legit stuff. But they do always say if it's tool assisted so it's not like they are trying to say otherwise.

Already confirmed to be on the Sonic CD OST coming out soonish.

They're a way to show off the limits of the game, its engine, and how well the player making the TAS understands both. They're a completely different thing from normal real time speed runs, and aren't meant to be compared.

So good. I'll take pictures of the CDs and liner notes too.[/QUOTE]
Damn, I should've paid for express shipping! I hope you're enjoying it, spindashing. :)

Knowing my luck, it'll get here the same time my Final Fantasy Type-0 LE OST gets here. :(

Looks like the liner notes consist of an interview with Nakamura rather than a track-by-track evaluation and thoughts on the tracks. That's still good, though. I'm interested in what the interview says. Packaging looks really nice!

Edit: I think I'm going to stay away from the other music spoilers. Someone please do post the final boss theme when it's available, however.

Merci beaucoup! :)

So...
It isn't orchestrated, and it appears to be the music from the boss trailer. I guess I was wrong about The Doomsday being the theme then. I'm a bit disappointed, but I guess it works better in-game.

I think the highest resolution SEGA released that at was 624 x 351, unfortunately (and I think it was ripped from the Japanese website? I can't recall.). I'm not sure if anyone has a bigger resolution than that without making the image look bad.

The rest of the music is starting to leak out.

Crisis City and Rooftop Run are criminally good, classic and modern alike.

Rooftop Run and Casino Night remixes are the tippity top tier.

...?

*looks for it* Oh my.

You know what?
I agree. It totally works in context, and I like what they ended up doing with it overall. It might be an acquired taste to some people, though. With that said, I can't wait to see how the Classic Sonic version of that level looks like.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
There's also the cutscene before the final boss online.

Ah, it's always Eggman! Always him the o...no, wait, there's even ROBOTNIK! It's an alliance!

I haven't heard a lot, nor have I seen cutscenes... and I'm going to try to keep it that way. Temptation broke once with Classic Planet Wisp, though. Glad I haven't seen footage of that yet. :D

Oh no, I am not clicking on that Chaotix link! MUST RESIST.

Cheers matey. Eh, I can send PMs fine on Firefox. Weird

Sending PMs and seeing other user's profiles has been borked for me in FF since at least FF4 (I'm currently using the Aurora version of FF9)

I shouldn't be surprised that IGN's standards for video reviews have reached sub-Youtube levels.

Yeah, it wasn't the best. No mention of the soundtrack, hub world etc. I was hopin there would have been a written review.

Still, 8.5 is a pretty good score. I feel this game is a 9/10 title tho.
