http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wrath_of_Cortex - Wiki Explanation http://www.youtube.com/user/GarlandTheGreat#g/c/891A29DD6F0CFD52 - 100% Walkthrough Well, I wanted to see this run as this game is very great. As I say, Any% and 100% (This game says 106%) would be better if some emulators are possible. My Question is: Which system do you think is the best to TAS? -Playstation 2? -Nintendo GameCube? -Or Xbox?

The game should not be much different compared to system... I would go with GameCube for now because that system is the only one that is TAS stable. Then if another port is better it can always obsolete that movie in the future. (PS2 and GC TASing still needs lots of work and will probably not become available this year, maybe not even next)

Gamecube I checked and when played back loading time is faster thank Xbox (in emulator)

The loading time emulation is crapshoot anyway. But there might be loading time differences on actual hardware too (for those, one would have to compare it on real console). Not that it matters much right now, as only one port is TASable.

The other two consoles may not be emulated well for quite some time, especially the Microsoft Xbox. If you want to make a run of this game, the GameCube version would be the way to go.

Dolphin is ideal for this because... Frame dumping (lag-free AVI recording) Load time hacks (removes drive service time delay) Idle skipping (skips idle CPU cycles and reduces lag) Frame rate interpolation fork (eliminates dropped frames on some games, though I haven't tested it with WOC) And probably more features I'm missing

It's the only one we can use that actually has TASable things within it and has been implemented with this stuff for quite some time.

Woopty do. We're not caring about this, we're caring about the .dtm file.

Nope and Nope. No hacks, and Idle Skipping must be off.
