What luck, there's french fry stuck in my beard.
Nope, since there's an impassable hive blocking you from the rest of Norfair in the room to the right of the Norfair--Brinstar elevator that doesn't go away until you get the Power Grip.

...does the Speed boost take care of that? Or screw attack? How about it?
Might as well try since the speed booster is one of my 6 optionals.

Well, since I was trying a 15% speed run anyways, why not? I don't know when I'll get around to it, though.
I can try right now(I have to start over though)
There's wall jump for reason. *COUGHCOUGH*
Thats not the problem. Its the fact that there is a hive blocking the way.

The Speed boost would have to be it since the Screw attack is in the rest of Norfair.

There is no way through the hive.  The only way to get past it would be to get some of those parasites to eat it, and since there are no parasites in that room let alone Norfair (and you can't transport parasites from room to room), there is no way past it.

Trust me.  I'ts been looked into and researched quite fully.

You've tried Speed boosting? I'm about to try, I'll have results tomorrow, maybe.
Not impossible
just highly unlikely

Well, that was fun. I'm leaving now. Holy crap dude, he's right. That totally sucks.
Every time I see one of Toozin's posts, his avatar looks like what he might be feeling that moment.

For example: When I read his post in this topic, his avatar was of Joker with his hands clutching his head looking like he's going out of his mind.

Maybe they aren't so random after all Shocked

It was Batman for me. He looked extremely terrifying.
One shall stand, one shall ball.
Right now it's Venom, for me anyway.
Agent Graves is what I get. Anyways, can't you...not get the Speed Booster without the Ice Beam? Or is there some weird trick to do that?
PAGE BREAKER
Ready and willing.

Erm... the Ice Beam has nothing to do with the Speed Booster (beating Kraid, remember?). Maybe you're confused because you have to go get the Power Grip to beat Kraid the "normal" way. But it's not neccesary. So yes, you can have the speed booster by that point.

Ah ok. It seems like there's always a way to do everything in this game. Except skip the Power Grip. Which admitidly I don't mind. But for people who want the lowest percent possible then I guess I can see why you want to skip it.

Considering most of my avatars are (intentionally) angry or intimidating looking, it's no coincidence it'll reflect my mood if I make such a post.
As for speedboosting and shinesparking; the Hive is as solid as a wall. You're not able to get past it using speed booster tricks.

I see Agent Smith with a mad face yelling at me "YOU CANNOT SKIP THE POWER GRIP". O_O Now I'm scared... Crying or Very sad

Hm...

That topic went on longer than it probably should have.
Well although it cant be skipped, last night I managed a Speed Booster and Super Missiles before Power Grip break. I'm please with that :P
