	Secret Of Mana [eu] (SNES) - 5:15 - Frank Cid Speed run of Secret of Mana (French) in 8 segments completed on August 26 2005. Available in three versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high quality. Author's comments: The run is PAL (French), played alone, segmented (there are 8 segments+credits) and recorded on VHS. -Thanks to Nate for to capture my run. -Thanks to Radix for to upload it. -Thanks to all the people who encouraged me.

Available in six versions: low/normal/high quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: This run was done using version 1.05. Originally I started running this without using Fraps to record, since using the built-in demo recorder would enable me to play at 1280x1024 at 60fps, which makes aiming/movement easier for me...

	Shadow Man (N64) - 3:14 - David Gibbons Speed run of Shadow Man in 20 segments completed on August 3 2005. Author's comments: Although released on multiple platforms, Shadow Man is by far the darkest title on the N64 that I can recall. I mean, the first item you use is your dead little brother's teddy bear to warp to different areas. I also can't pass over the fact that our protagonist is black. And he's not Token!

Available in five versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: This was my first speed run, and I played with Normal difficulty, no fruits or lizard's tails eaten. The only things I did were: Locate and defeat all 16 colossi.

Available in Low, Normal, High and Insane Quality H.264 MP4. Author's commentary: I started playing this game about 1 week before i did this run. So i spent only a few days investigating this game before I decided to start working on the SS run.

Available in five versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: Shadow Warriors is the european version of Ninja Gaiden. This version differs slightly from Ninja Gaiden in that Ryu can jump a bit longer. It also has slower "loading" between levels and slower count-down after boss fights than the american version, so 13.51 is a very fast time...

I actually got a request of doing this and after concidering it I decided to see if I could improve CaithSith2's run. Apparently I could. This version is not only 5 seconds as someone thought but 5 minutes and 8 seconds (if I calculated it right) faster!! How could I improve it so much then?

Available in six versions: normal/low quality DivX, and normal/high/insane/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: This is my first speed run and I enjoyed it immensely. I'm glad Shinobi kept offering new levels of depth to the gameplay to keep me engaged through the months that I've been playing it. There were a number of tricks that I picked up from others and I'll give credit where credit is due, everything else I figured out my...

Available in 3 versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high quality. Author's comments: After I saw Molotov's run, I knew I had to make a run of this game myself. I tried to make this run no damage, but after getting hit once in the final level I just thought, "fuck it" and soldiered on. When I do an improvement to this run I will aim for no damage...

Author's comments: I had some run-ending mistakes/complications before this one was completed. Level 6 and the first part of 7 are not my strong points (but the boss in 6 is easy though). You have to be careful around the flying ninjas, as they are effective time-wasters and killers, and level 6 has a few of them + the rock jumping = argh... Keywords: Shinobi; Genesis Downloads: 8,817

Author's comments: WHY: It's my last work connected with "Silent Hill 2", so I especially wanted to give the best result which was possible to get.

I have had this idea for awhile now and now I had some time to do it. The biggest problem with this game is the day and night thing. It's a cool idea for a NES game but it's annoying when to time attack the game. Because of this I had to do certain things. First: I did get both the holy water and the white crystal before heading towards the second town. This forced me to kill a bunch of monsters to be able to afford em both...

	Simon's Quest (Castlevania 2) - 38:53 (US version, emulated run) - Joel Yliluoma (aka. Bisqwit) This is the story of Simon Belmont's horrible weekend without sleep. The timeunit count for this movie is 3:15:11. There are several items that are required for the completion of the game, and you can't buy them without killing a certain amount of monsters, thus this movie has quite much of running back and forth, collecting hearts. There are a few very impressive glitches in this game - using them could cut the time down significantly...

Abuses death to save time. Available in four versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high/insane quality. Author's comments: Thanks goes out to Radix and Nate for the obv.

	Snake Rattle 'n Roll - 10:17 (US version, emulated run) - Devin Coldewey (aka. Devindotcom) Snake Rattle 'n Roll is mostly about collecting the "nibble bibbles" or something like that, but the biggest part of the game is the tricky maneuvers required to complete the big mountain levels. This 10 minute movie is quite an acrobacy. No warps are used. The movie does not include the ending demo because Famtasia issued a "unrecognized opcode" warning when the game was completed. The movie could probably be improved by a bit by luring out some better luck, but it's a somewhat good first publi...

	Snake Rattle n Roll (NES) - 05:08 (US version, emulated run) - Devin Coldewey (aka. Devindotcom) Aimed for ~5:50, ended up far shorter. Barring maybe 5-6 seconds of piblet randomness abuse, this is almost certainly as fast as this game can be beaten. Unfortunately most of the fun stages are skipped by the warp.

	Snow Bros (NES) - 16:45 (US version, emulated run) - JP and JP Hamelin (aka. DJ FozzBozz and RaverMeister) This is the first timeattack movie with two players playing controlling two characters simultaneously. Quite interesting. The coordination is not perfect, but the movie is quite good nevertheless. Selected comments from the author: The first level might seem like "two average players playing", but that's because there's nothing to do for the other player. This game is a little similar to Bubble Bobble. Keywords: NES; Emulated run; tool-assisted speedrun Downloads: 3,510 Average rating: (2 reviews)

Available in six versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/insane/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: Tip for the viewer: DivX/XviD can't cope with the detail levels and high motion of this game so I can't recommend anyone to watch them.

	Solomon's Key (NES) - 22:44 (US version, emulated run) - Joel Yliluoma (aka. Bisqwit) Uses warps. A warpless version will probably be coming someday. This timeattack exceptionally contains one death. It was intentional to save time. There are many more goals in this game than to just pass all levels... Including some secret levels. Many levels are much more difficult when you try to collect the items required for those quests. This timeattack ignores all those goals.

	Solstice (NES) - 07:09 (Europe version, emulated run) - Peter Bucher (aka. Exim) Solstice movies get shorter and shorter by every release, just like most of the other movies. The amazing thing is that nobody could see them coming. Another 20 seconds squeezed here. Note: Famtasia plays PAL games at NTSC speed, that is 16.7% too fast. Thus the AVI is significantly faster than the movie should actually be. Keywords: NES; Emulated run; tool-assisted speedrun Downloads: 1,099 Average rating: (0 review)

Timing note: the run was timed based on an earlier (crappier) capture from a different VCR, so it actually times slightly faster now, but the old time is left.
