@Jellobeaver I will keep running the game until I get a reasonable time. :)
Update 5/22/16:
Okay, I did not record my run because I unfortunately do not have a capture card :(
My time was 57:54, I'm not sure if the runs have to be recorded or just timed to a certain place, but I am starting to get the hang of it a little. PAL definitely does not have any different kinds of glitches than NTSC, well so far at least :P
So, as of runs that i have seen on video sites (eg. Youtube), I want to start running this game, but as of what I have seen in this community, the game has only been run on USA and JP versions. I live in the UK so the only version I have to play is PAL PS2. Are there any skips in the game that are exclusive to USA/JP, or any that are exclusive to PAL?
