Impossible is nothing
HELL YEAH

All credit goes to the Health & Safety Manual of course
getting there...
was there.
playing prime in a thunderstorm
we are now living in a post-59 era
really glad i got to see this live!

congrats miles!
You, Sir, are insane.
Oh by the way, that was single segment.
loving the pictures. great job though. everyone always though sub hour was impossible. now get back to the segmented run!!
Til Miles gets around to highlighting the run on Twitch and/or uploading to youtube:

http://www.twitch.tv/milessmb/b/338532708

Watch from ~3:56:58 for the run with the amazing live commentary :P
cool, watching this when i get home
Speedrunner
Damn. Im not see that your live attempt because i sleep, but i have to watch this a today.

Congrats with this. Thats damn awesome. Im not even ask did you try redo that one more minutes? I think this very low 59 minutes. Couple seconds off its wil be 58 minutes. But hell yeah who care, sub hour is always sub hour and damn sub hour SS im not never thinking this will even possible.

Congrats and thanks your all hard hob. You are really awesome. Will you submit this run now in SDA?
Awesome stuff, just watched it then. Loved the commentary along with the run :D
Its crazy seeing some of the mistakes u do, yet u get 59. The metroid prime fight was great though.
I still remember when Kip's 1:04 was the record... Feels like a lifetime ago, doesn't it?

It might only be a five minute difference after all of these years, and when you take into account all of the other runs that have happened since then that have trickled the best time closer to an hour it might not seem like much of a change compared to the last. But even if it's only a minute faster than the last run it's still the most important drop so far, and it's SS on top of that! I'm definitely going to watch this later. Awesome work, Miles!

And then once your segmented run is finished you'll have two outstanding runs under your belt! How insane is that?

How much faster this new route are compared Kip & Zoid route? I think it is somewhere over 2 minutes? Though this new route are much harder IMO. Yeah SS category make this time so awesome. Somereason my flash player doesn´t work well a today and its stuck so much i can,t watch and enjoy this run yet. I´ll watch this later when my shit internet connection playing well enought.

Are you Miles ever played 22% SS runs? I think 21% SS is way too hard to beat and all speedrun settings are out of sight here. 22% hard SS NTSC might be awesome progress when you got bored other categories. I think these wave pirate battles could be skipped here used new trick climb up electron gap. Maybe this make 22% hard mode SS very possible to beat because these wave pirates and last boss are maybe biggest run killers.

I am always loved low-% SS runs. Stefan & Smilingjack runs are one my favorited entire game. But nobody never are making it on hard mode even on NTSC version its are way too hard.
So impressive! I've been seeing this forum for a while but with this historic result I had to register and say congrats Miles. You are the best Applause
Speedrunner
I finally watched this. I have to say awesome run. There is still many mistakes and much potential make 58 minutes single segment run. Did you estimate how much over 59 minutes this is? I think this is very low 59 minutes.

Luck with Prime was awesome. Its will be so painful make it done any better. Thats look like prime like a lot use ice & plasma faces.

Since Miles is shooting for 0:53 in the segmented run, that would be 10 minutes saved from Zoid's run. I think that about half of that comes from the new route (ibbf, mines without spider, ice spreader etc) and half comes from general better play. That's just a really rough estimate though.

Also, lol at the third picture in the op.
rocks, locks, and invisible blocks
the route before spider skip was only like a minute faster iirc, so its about 2.20ish minutes faster than the inbounds route.

Also Miles, how were the splits in this run? the 1:00 lost about 2 minutes towards to end so I'm guessing that 0:58 shouldn't be that hard for you, but I'm wondering how likely it will be that we'll be seeing a 0:57 or lower soon

HECK YES

now go do sub-hour mp2

then sub-hour mp3

Also master, nobody in their right mind would do any metroid prime game low% in a single segment <_< and there really isn't any point in doing a SS 22% MP1 run either since it isn't the low% anymore

but it's miles...
Miles was saying he'd probably shoot for 0:57 for an SDA submission.

Okay. So he will keep this progress. I think estimate time with this run is around 59:10. So this requires slightly over minutes improvement got high 57. But yeah seriously this not was Miles best attempt. I think 58 is easy task if most hard things went well enought. High 57 might be hell as hard.

I think this run is still worth submission because its huge improvement over Sparky segmented run 2 minutes & Zoid SS 7 minutes. SDA is really retared right now. LOL
A historic moment.

One down, two to go!

It's not worth submitting. While it's a great accomplishment, I know that miles can do much better than 0:59. There were a few ugly mistakes, and I'm very confident that miles can hit 0:57 soon enough.

And SDA isn't quite that bad. On the plus side, they (finally) universally accept RTA categories (aka with resets). About time. The verification though...

SDA definitely accept this.

But yeah i know Miles could be faster. But i don,t think this happen soon. He make really much job with this. You can,t even imagine how hard this game is. Mistakes are nearly impossible avoid on SS category. Even segmented its so hard.

I know because i am speedrunning Prime a lot. Several years i never can beat game stanard like Miles, even segmented it.

Even Miles make mistakes but luck manipulation against last boss was superb. Thats most important. But hell yeah i´ll hope he will keep progress this. High 57 minutes might just awesome final goal. Nobody else can,t beat it.
