Holy cow! Now I really wanna see a TAS for both Sonic Adventure 1 & 2. Any chance of an existing Dreamcast emulator that has save states, frame advance, etc?
Why, oh, why do I even <i>try</i> to understand my own species?

This being one of my favorite games to speed run I would be 100% willing to TAS it, Jawzun's youtube channel has quite a few strats faster then the SDA run: http://www.youtube.com/user/Jawzun Note that some of those strats are dreamcast exclusive.

That video made me remind how epic Sonic Adventure (DX) is. I was nostalgic 50% of the time, and amazed the other 50%. Truly a work of art. Now, if he wore to update it with recent techniques...

I'd definitely watch a Sonic Adventure 100% TAS. There are so many short cuts and such that can only be done via TAS-methods. I wish you luck, Pl0xability.

Man, some of those shortcuts are nuts. I think my favorite part was how the second half of Twinkle Park gets completely ignored. I always figured that most of the background scenery wasn't actually solid, and even if it was, that you wouldn't be able to run on it. Sheesh...

Depends on how receptive the game's RNG is to manipulation. You're going to have to manipulate four 1/216 shots and a 1/90 shot, which doesn't really sound so bad given the amount of time you have between them. In some cases, it makes sense to pause-restart because it moves you closer to the next piece. However, the amount of game time saved is unlikely to match the real time spend fading out and back in. What would be the way to go here? For Sky Deck in particular, the fastest game time route actually involves 6 segments, with a setup segment before each piece that consists of going up to the tilt switch and re-tilting the ship to the most favorable angle to reach the next piece in line, then restarting to keep the tilt position intact but without the time you spent doing so counting against you. I can't imagine that would look good at all.
