- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- This is a world record speedrun (completed 6/29/2017) for The Twin Snakes, a gamecube game from 2004. I complete the game in 59:51 on the hardest difficulty with game over if discovered active and radar off. I also achieve the highest rank of Big Boss and get perfect stats (all zeros except 8 unavoidable story alerts).

Holy shit, so good to see you are alive lol. Hope you are doing well. Nice change for a video, different pace then usual. Good stuff.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Chris. I haven't been playing online fps the past year so it definitely makes sense for me to upload something I'm working on. This was a long time project that finally came together so I'm happy to share. :)
Damn, GOOD to hear from you. Hope all is well.
All is well. I haven't been involved with UA-cam this past year, but I'm still around as much as ever playing games and enjoying life.
That door glitch makes it look like Snake is beating his clown. Awesome vid Wallguy
Lol, it absolutely does look like that. I've thought this many times. :D
Wallguy i also appreciate the commentary for us non mgs speedrunners.
Yeah I tried to be cognizant that the majority of viewers would not be speed runners. I wanted to make it as watchable as I could for all audiences. Thanks again for watching. :)
Good stuff dude!
Thanks Kr4hu. This and other speed runs, especially MGS runs have been a huge part of my life. I love doing them and they can seduce away years of my time if I'm not careful. I'm not crazy about that part because that means I don't get to play other games at all for like a year at a time. Both this game and MGS3 have done that to me. :/
Crazy video btw!
I'm pleased you liked it. :D
Great.
Thanks Azu. This EMU run has been beaten in execution by 22 seconds by my current best GCN run. You can check that out in the description but I expect to beat that time soon so you might as well wait. :)

I really love your commentaries. Wanna reclaim the top record? Also I wanna ask if in getting BB rank if it is required to turn radar off on Twin Snakes? Cuz I read some articles that say you dont need to turn radar off.
Thanks for the kind words. I try to keep people informed and entertained during the runs. I've done 3 commentaries I think for this game. First time was in this run where I got the first sub hour Big Boss ever on emulator (WR). Then I did one for the first sub hour Big Boss run on original hardware, a 59:48 (WR). Then years later I released a video for the still standing original hardware world record improvement of 56:34. As far as re-claiming this emulator world record, I never really lost it. Officially I haven't submitted a new video that improves this one, but my best time is 55:58 (an unofficial WR). Emulator runs are by default about 1:28 quicker than console runs due to fast loads, so in quality the 55:58 emu run is technically not as good as the excellent 56:34 I did on console. So if I do submit to the emu category again I want to put in a real effort to do the run justice. Maybe a 55:0X time or close. As far as radar you can have it on if you want for Big Boss. We turn it off because it removes some cutscenes in the beginning of the game that saves 5-6 seconds. And also because once you get used to the speedrun you know where all the enemies are and don't even need to look at the radar. :)
@@Wallguy well, im glad that u have unofficial wr. Looking forward for your new run :)
I already gave up on BB attempt. I couldn't beat the phase 2 of Hind D. Iirc i did BB rank on psx (ps1 emulator) back in the day (i used save state abused tho), but this time I couldn't do it on Twin Snakes. I tried your tips on phase 2 but I died easily coz maybe i have only half hp at that boss fight ( tho maybe it doesn't make a difference even if I am full hp).
@@diamondgirls6141 Yeah Hind takes practice. You definitely want to have full health when you get to it, and it also helps if you haven't burned your 1 allowed (for Big Boss) ration yet. Then you have some life to work with. Though once you understand the Hind's movement you can reliably fight him without getting hit if you want. I only take damage in the speed runs to maximize speed and because I know he won't hit me enough with my strategy to kill me. :)
@@Wallguy there is no way u are doing this by taking chances. Lol
You mentioned u were doing this since 2004 so I can only imagine how much experience u have with this game. I'm just a noob who complains and thought there is shortcut to this.
But thanks coz Im inspired to play this game since I watched your speedruns.
Cheers!
It's been a long time Wallguy. I used to be KingStriker finally change my name.
Oh hey KingStriker, I remember that name. I hope life has been good to you.
Oh btw, you probably remember me as FatLard. This is just a different youtube account
Ah yes, I do remember FatLardChris. :)
Will you be putting out more vids? Miss the great content
I will put out some vids yes. But it can never be what it used to be unless I'm frequently playing games that inspire me to release videos. I like to primarily release content here from competitive online fps games and I have been taking a long break from those. A new MoH has the best chance of bringing me back to regular releases. Otherwise it will be the occasional project here and there. With some periodic classic MoH releases I dig up from my vault. :)
I can't get snake to auto aim while running its makes the tower ascension part hard as hell am I doing something wrong or is it a bug in the emulator
Nah, the emulator works fine. What you want to do is press (and hold) the punch button and shoot button at the same time, then release the shoot button as you approach the enemy and see the laser sight tracking toward your target. If you continue to hold punch afterward you can run and shoot without stopping all the way up. It is very important to keep moving up so trailing guards don't catch up to you. A tip to get the auto-aim to engage best is to face Snake toward the guards' direction as soon as you can the moment you come running around a corner. But don't rush your shot. Wait a moment for the laser to line up. Good luck. :)
@@Wallguy thanks I've been holding crouch and shoot
Are you and MeowThR6 into Medal of Honor: Warfighter anymore?
We loved our time overall with the game and will still occasionally release videos based on it and MoH 2010. But most people stopped playing it 3 years ago (being generous) so we're not among the very few people that still play it actively.
It's funny that killing mouse does not ruin BB rank 🤣
Yeah there are several places in the run where you might expect to get kills but you don't. The mouse isn't a human enemy so it doesn't count. Neither do the ravens. At 48:49 I send a guard over a rail to his doom and it doesn't count as a kill since he falls out of bounds and never technically tallies as a death. Then on the escape I blow up barrels to take out guards but they don't die, they only get knocked out, despite all the blood lol.
@@Wallguy yeah that's funny that it doesn't count as kill. Couldn't get the logic behind it. But it's a game anyway. Lol
