Author's comments:
I started this run on December 17, a mere one month after this game came out. At that point, my goal was a time of under three hours, and I doubted whether that was even realistic. I wanted to do my best either way, so i spent a ton of time, probably more than actually working on the segments, going through each part and looking for any tricks that could aid my run. So, not to sound cocky or anything, but no matter how much you think you know about this game, if you want to see some new tricks you should watch this. Those who thought the discoveries have stopped long ago couldn't be more wrong.
As for the actual performance of the run, I would say it is about the same level as my 100% in the first Prime. I'd estimate about three to four weeks were spent actually playing the segments. However, since this game is nearly twice as long, thats less time for each segment. But for the most part, the segments were relatively easy, with some hard tricks usually thrown in. Even if you don't care about the new tricks, and just want to see a fast speed run, this should still entertain.
As for thanks, i'd like to thank the IRC guys and gal for support, and tips here and there. Also, all those who didn't give up on this game, and continued fighting the odds and finding ways to go faster than what was presently known. Finally, nate, who, despite being overrun with work, found the time to capture this run, and Radix, who runs this lovely site which got me interested in speed runs in the first place.
