    Boco Gotta Go Fast: Sonic Speed Challenge!

    Okay guys, I have an idea. We currently have a Sonic 2 challenge going on where you see how far you can get before you get a Game Over. Here's a challenge that focuses on something else that Sonic is all about: speed!

    Each week I'll post a zone and act from one of the "original" Sonic games (anything between Sonic 1 and Sonic 3&K). Your challenge? To get through said act as fast as you possibly can and then post a screenshot of your results! If we get enough participation, I'll see about setting up a points system and I'll keep track as we go along, so we can see who the fastest is!


    Let's start with a classic:

    THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE:

    Sonic the Hedgehog - Green Hill Zone Act 1

    Be sure to get your results in by Monday, March 19.

    Rules: Only screenshots (or pictures, if you're playing on a console) will be accepted as final scores. You can post as many screenshots as you like; your fastest time will be accepted as your final time.

    Any version of Sonic is allowed so long as you don't cheat or whatnot!

    0:34 is my personal record thus far, but I'm hoping to shave a lot of time off of that with all sorts of practicing!

    Edit: Sephex, I told MILF about your screenshot and you will be pleased to know that he immediately dropped everything that he was doing and loaded up Sonic. He really wants to win this. xD

    Cool. I am actually hoping someone does better. I might give it another go myself on Thursday, since I won't have time tomorrow.

    Dude, come on. That's just not fair. I can't even beat 30 seconds yet.

    My Sonic skills suck worse than I thought. That's what I get for being a Nintendo boy growing up. I'm in the 40's so nowhere near Sephex. I'm struggling on the other challenge as well. I've only got to the aquatic ruin zone. I'm gonna give both challenges another go tonight and post some pictures.

    If you guys did this with Kirby: Canvas Curse, you'd all be weeping in shame at my mad skills.
