Red Scarlet has beaten Smokey's 0:58 record by 3 minutes achieving a time of 0:55.
Smokey improved his old record by doing the run 2 minutes faster landing on a total time of 0:56.

Great work on the run Invoker. Im watching it right now.
But I think you should use the re-record to more to correct errors/mistakes and go for some speed.
For example when you are trying to get the X-buster upgrade.
I.e:
Dont try to get hit(unless it save times)
Let the dash be you friend. Dont dubbel click(I cab see that you using it) use the dash button instead :)
And do not bother about the enemies(unless they are in you way :)
Maybe im wrong but, do you use the start button at the subtiles/text? It goes faster ;)
I just finish my second timeattack run om MMX which is 3 min and 34 second faster then my first attempt. :)
But I dont go for any powerups and no hits taken.
Otherwise.. Awesome work with your run, indeed.
Keep the spirit and countinue with the good work.
Now I shall countinue to watch you run :)
When i first recorded this run, it was garbled and out if sync. Next attempt was not at all what I had done when playing. Third, likewise. Something was really messed up. I had to re-configure the game-pad on several occasions and even after that it just wouldn't work. I ended up re-installing Snes9x and after a few minutes of tinkering with settings and so forth it was working the way I wanted it to.
Also, this is the run on Mega Man X I am actually satisfied with ... for now. ;) It was like the tenth attempt or something. There is room for plenty of improvement but I'll do them some other day. Right now, I'm sick and tired of looking at Mega Man and all cronies that try to stop him ;p
So the start button works on the in-game text? Huh.. I'll keep that in mind.
I kept the "no-hit unless necessary" in mind but on the Sigma stages, I was way too tired and just didn't give a damn. But there is much improvement to be done there, as well.
Also, the Launch Octopus. I REALLY dislike the dude. I've tried, time and again, not getting hit by him but it just isn't going to happen. The best I can do is minimize the damage I actually take from him since he's the fasted of all the bosses when it comes to shooting.
Let me know when you've finished MMX2. :) I really enjoyed seeing you blaze through the stages.
And finally: Is it just me or is MMX2 done a bit sloppy? Seems like the ideas that hatched MMX were gone and replaced with mind-numbing "something else."
