Silent Cartographer - in under 5 minutes.
Vern Shields put together a pretty nice speed run for Silent Cartographer. Yes, it's on Easy... but there are some pretty cool aspects to it. First, he completed the entire level in 4:43, measured from starting to ending checkpoints. Second, as he leaves the underground area, he passes not one, but TWO gold elites. Third, at the top of the last ramp, there's a nice example of mass scripted death - all the baddies simply fall dead on the ground as he reaches them. Fourth - the ending cutscene has a surprise in it... watch it all the way through. And fifth... well, he picked a piece of music that meshes amazingly well with the action. Nicely done all around. There are other nuggets worth seeing... grab the film at Mythica. (It should also be on the Psyjnir Complex Hotline server sometime later tonight.) It's in QuickTime format, and weighs in at 23.1 mb. The Legendary Speed Runners have something to shoot for! (Louis Wu 21:42:20 UTC)
