On conquering and continuation of a theme.

Welcome back to Evil Sapphie's Pit of Lulz. Last time, I discussed my general dislike for my fellow Sonic fans and in keeping with the theme of the week, I am going to talk about the Sonic games some more. Bet you didn't see that one coming. So anyway, the whole purpose of this post is simply to announce that I have finally cracked the sub 40 second barrier on Sonic Advance 2's first level, Leaf Forest Zone, Act One. Even greater is the rage any "True Sonic Fan" is going to feel when they read the following statement. I did it with Amy Rose. Yes, the slow pink fuzzball who according to most of the fanbase, needs to go die in a fire.

Times 2 and 3 are identical, as you'll notice.

Ironically, she is strictly speaking the second fastest character in the game, behind Sonic of course, as she shares his speed and moveset, but lacks his ability to accelerate quickly with an air dash, (which is an annoying move to pull off without a decent controller, believe me, since I'm emulating the game on my PSP and controlling it with the infamous PSP 1000 D-Pad. I do own Sonic Advance 2 physically, though, just for the record.)

Mmmmm... Interstellar Ice Cream...

Also, I have no idea how I managed to get exactly 0:40:28 twice. Granted, I took the same route both times, but to match times on a perfect run is still surprising. The extra 1.4 seconds came from a perfectly timed jump around 3/4 of the way through the course that enabled me to skip one of the rotating swing arms - those things have a huge impact on your overall time if you land on one.

A time attacker's worst nightmare...

Anyway, to close the post I would like to offer the following up to anyone that reads this post: Anyone think they can do better?

p.s. I've been on board with Sonic since the days of the Master System and I like Amy, Cream and Big. And I don't like Shadow. Far too "Serious Business" for my liking.

p.p.s. Screw you if you disagree.

p.p.p.s. I promise not to talk about Sonic in my next post. Possibly.
