  • This run is ridiculous, right behind my best pace and I first try endurance.
    I have since beaten this run many times, here is the current wr run of 26:13: • mbu 26:13.060 (I am attempting to push for a sub 26, you can check those attempts out at twitch.tv/m2kmarbles)
    Technical info:
    1. This was not run on emulator, rather on OpenMBU, an openly available 1:1 replica of the original xbox game available for pc with controller support. If youd like to revisit your late 2000s nostalgia, heres a link to the DL site: openmbu.com/
    2. The game is run with loads removed to compensate for different platform loading times.

      This might be dumb question lol, but do the in-game leaderboards still work on this game? I get that you aren't going for the actual time per level, but last time I played this game I remember having all top 1,000 and I think I had a top 100 or 50 on skyscraper.
      I never played this game beating all levels in a full run like this, which was way beyond my skill. However, there are some levels where you can shave off some time with different routes. @@m2kball

    This game was such a hit when I was 5 😭 I had an Xbox 360 and this game was my favorite among Xbox games offline. After reading comments that this game is incredibly hard to find or mere impossible that I thank the people who copied mostly or prob everything from the game to make it the same as it was on the Xbox 360. Is there a WR Catagory for controllers for this game? Or just all together??
