My mom would greatly enjoy TASes of Plaque Attack and Frogger, for what it's worth :-P

I also dislike most NES TASes

I'm going to save everyone some trouble by just quoting this so you know not to take anything he says seriously again.

Wow, nice to know that the community that I've felt a part of for 6+ years labels me as not to be taken seriously. I was under the impression that people are allowed to have their own opinions, and most importantly preferences about what they find entertaining, but I guess that's not the case. Go on and make whatever arguments you want and slander me and take what I've said out of context and try and make me look bad, but I'm not the one who first blew it out of proportion. It's just sad that what drew me to this site is a host of intelligent people trying to make entertaining movies that pushed the boundaries, and after spending years trying to contribute to that effort I'm now being attacked for sharing an opinion about console preference.

You shouldn't really take everything written on the internet too seriously. Since some people like to piss off others because.....I don't know? Maybe because they are sadistic can? :/

As I said, you are entitled to your opinions, and you can freely express them, but please do not vandalize the voting and rating systems just out of principle as some kind of useless "protest". Protest with words, not by vandalizing someone's submission. For example, the technical rating of a movie should be based on its technical qualities, not on whether you find it "boring" or not. (Also, "technical rating" refers to the TAS itself. It does not refer to the technical quality of the console.) The author of the TAS does not deserve your empty "protest".

Really? Have you seen what happens when someone dislikes a Mario64 or Zelda64-TAS? They get lynched. If you think people are hard on you now, try saying that OoT doesn't make a good TAS. Ok I finally got around to watch this. I think it's awesome enough.

Voted Meh. Great glitch, I remember the pause sequence. Amazed to see it exploited for an 12 second completion. The entire games premise was to go one screen right (?) and watch the bridge blow up and then recover the pieces. While in E.T. and in Raiders they still completed all of the objectives in the fastest time, this just skips the entire game. I can't really argue this is "fastest completion" and on my own logic, should be published because I want to see a 2600 option on the site, and it destroys another childhood game I spent days playing. However, this does not even have a 10th of a point of entertainment. Walk 2 steps, wait, go in door. Wooo. Like with the other two atari games, there isn't even entertainment value - no dancing, no tapping out to taptaprevolution, no puns or funny stuff. I'd love to see pure skill runs on an Atari 2600 games... like a faster and higher score then the Joust run that won a guy a Delorean with the "Ready Player One" contest. But with these "adventure" games, it's like it's all troll bait to piss people off in here and start an argument on if 2600 games should be qualified. Also, I'd like to actually see a fastest completion after actually starting this game - not abusing a glitch in the "intro". (I'm guessing intro glitches have already been done before on a different systems though. I can think of a few using passwords. So meh.) Seriously, do *something* during the waits, or at least add some sort of entertainment value to your submission if your going to game the system like you have. There is plenty of room to riff while you deal with a 4-bit system - it's great to see it done, but the point of the site isn't just to speed run it - it's to do something inhuman in the process. - Edited for clarity, spelling and grammar.

8-bit.

Dude, you're totally entitled to your opinion. And I'm entitled to mine. My opinion is that your opinion is totally nuts. In what way am I impeding you from having or expressing your opinion?

This movie has been published. The posts before this message apply to the submission, and posts after this message apply to the published movie. ---- [2226] A2600 Superman "pause glitch" by jlun2 in 00:11.42

i agree. this route is trivial to perform unassisted, though the frame count is a little more difficult to hit. If we aim for shortest in game time, there's another route. walk to center, pause, move when daily planet shows on screen. this one is even easier. :) I used both of these routes when i played this game on my atari back in the day and i thought it was fun. :)
