Also, we're including segmented times in general? If so, on the team any%, miles has 1:01 segmented for prime 2 any% from his segmented test run. the 1:06 was single-segment

I pretty much just took single segment runs from the records so that they appear slightly more achievable. Maybe I should list segmented times, too.
Well I said that because you have parax's 2:09 time for mp3, which is segmented, but 1:06 for mp2, which is single-segment, when miles got 1:01 segmented
Shifty Leader
That M2k2 guy
I thought he said his 2:09 is single segment. Oops?

okay, turns out TheOnlyOne actually didn't do the post-credits stuff. Oops. Put Hitaka's time instead. Did he do post-credits?
He posted this on September 27, 2010 in the best times topic. (Page 10)
Quote from Hitaka:
3:58:14 15% through second ending. Sub-4 is done.

This is the first time I've ever been the first to break a milestone time and hold the record. Yay. Though I'm sure someone will surpass me before long.

Notice the part I put in italics. Given that so few people even run Other M these days it's not surprising that his record still stands.


I did notice Paraxade made a comment early on about having 3:53 GT and about 2:40 RT at the 1st ending, which coincides with what we've been finding out recently. Despite the cutscenes lasting longer the game seems to only count about 1:15 or so based on some of the runs where we've paid attention to real time. (Paraxade's run, my recent one, and your streamed one)
One shall stand, one shall ball.
Went and looked up my probably best times for Echoes and Corruption and found:

Echoes 8:40 64%

Corruption 8:12 71%

Whee!
Pretty sure that's going to move you up another 3 spots and into 12th place, too. Puts you at 85ish hours I think. Only about 73 more to go to break that combined any% record! Go go go!

I mean, think of how much time you could shave off if you simply completed Metroid, Hunters, and Other M. You know, three of the most polarizing games in the series from a gameplay standpoint. Shouldn't be hard, right? laugh new
One shall stand, one shall ball.
If I could bring myself to put Other M back in I could check my time on it but... Other M. I'll probably get to it.

I have completed Metroid also but I totally cheated so it doesn't count, I wish I could stand to play that game at all. Confused
Shifty Leader
That M2k2 guy
Yeah, unfortunately, it's fun ONLY if you're speedrunning it. Still, big jumps, I like it.

After I break 3:56 in other m, I might go back to corruption and improve that. I don't think I'm too far from having the series SSable. :^D O_O
One shall stand, one shall ball.
Have fun with Phaaze!

do it jagger. The easier breaks are very easy as long as you know how to BSJ. Specifically the jungle bryyo turret skip and hazard skip.

Berserker Lord Skip in Elysia is a bit rough if you don't know what you're doing, but you can go for that too

My PB:

Prime 2 Any% 2:03

I'm number one, right?

Alright, I've beaten Fusion, Prime 1, Prime 3, and the original Metroid casually. That's 5 games, right?
Thank you JaggerG for reminding me of this thread Wink

Update:

(old)  Metroid: 4:59 h - I don't remember my real time, but it was the ending without the helmet, so I took the worst possible time

(new) Metroid II RoS: 1:28 h

(old)  Super Metroid: 1:10 h

(new) Metroid Fusion:  any% 0:48 h
                                    100% 1:10 h
                                    1% 0:53 h

(old) Metroid Prime:  any% PAL 1:23 h
                                100% PAL 2:08 h

(old) Metroid Zero Mission: any% 31:38 h

(old) Metroid Prime 2 Echoes: 4:08 h  - no SBs or real speedrun - never got into it in Echoes - just a normal ss run

(old) Metroid Prime Hunters: 8:37 h (first and last playthrough)

(old) Metroid Prime 3 Corruption: 3:43 h - same thing as already stated in Echoes

(old) Metroid Other M:  4:03:35 h

So, my new total time would be: 30:50 h

lol, I find it funny that I took longer SBing Corruption than you did playing normally. Nice improvements.
should just learn ILS for mp2; it's fun even if you're not speedrunning seriously :D ignoring that it can crash on you
Jagger was playing so much Hunters that it reminded me of the fact that I actually have a new update to announce :D

I finally acquired Hunters yesterday, and beat it tonight! Got 14:22, and that should be enough to pull ahead of secre...crap. Nevermind.

Congratulations Secretkey on moving up to second place! I shall meet you there very shortly.

Beat Hunters in 4:05, bringing me to 20:16 total. Second place! ^_^ My third playthrough is likely gonna cinch 1st.
Hmm, the TMT topic was updated. Let's take a... Wait, when did Jagger get that close? laugh new

Saw the leaderboard before finding these last few posts so I had no idea what had happened at first. Solid competition and not playing any Metroid games for a while will do that. Great progress, guys!
Shifty Leader

Finally improved my Hunters time on my third playthrough, by an hour and 32 minutes, putting me in first! Then I figured it's probably time to double-check my math JUST in case I typoed. Turns out...I totally missed that I didn't update my other times after my mini Metroidthon back in November.

    Metroid        00:28
    Zero Mission    00:29
    Prime 1        01:55
    Hunters        02:33
    Echoes          01:53
    Corruption      03:49
    Return of Samus 01:07
    Super          00:58
    Other M        03:47
    Fusion          00:48
                       
                    17:47
I gladly relinquish the crown in the face of such amazing times.

...but I've still got you beat with Prime 1, Corruption, and Super! Prime 1 and Super by only 10-15 minutes each... but that still counts!
my umbrella goes directly to Bankai
maybe i should pay more attention to my bad games and play them more.

the only times i recall so far are:

mzm: 40:xx (stupid seconds)
mp1: 1:47
pinball: 30 minutes (a bit less but this lacks timer)
mp2: 1:38
mp3: 3:11
m2: 4 hours
sm: 5 hours (only have a 100% time here)
om: 8 hours (i only remember my 100% time)
fusion: 1:01

i've beaten m1 but only with the super powered password.

haven't beat hunters yet (and i got it on release. such shame)
Shifty Leader

Added you, uchiha, though I put 59 minutes for the times rounded by hour until you can be more specific. I'm not tracking Pinball because it's more of a spin-off than actual canon. Also not accepting times using codes for stuff you didn't get in Metroid 1. Congrats on top 10.
