This is all as far as I know, and I might be wrong, but;
I don't think Speedrun.com makes a police checking if games are or not original, although the community doesn't encourage Piracy for sure.
I think the cartridge issue is the same as a console. If the game runs differently in a non-original cart or console compared to how it would do in the original then there would be a category problem (like being considered emulation for example).
So in any case check how the forum of the specified game thinks about it.
I recently got back to running this game. I had to do major changes in my pc, so I'ts been a while, I'm kinda fresh starting again, getting used to the controls again.
I'll try to make my times closer to @Trebr0n 's
: )
I have no idea if the original game suported analog stick but it's ok to use for me. It might help if you get used to it. @Trebr0n uses the analog stick to do a fast 180 quick turn only when placing the crystals. I use only the D pad all the time. It's personal how you prefer =)
Version: All runs so far have been done on NTSC versions, but it's your choice.
Emulator: ePSXe is the one I use. Just watch some tutorials on youtube to set plugins and bios if needed and you'll be ready to go.
About the runs, it's easy to become frustrated with deaths and movement in this game, because of the outdated controls... I think this game is harder to run than tomb raider in my opinion, because it's an action game with tomb raider controls lol
Just keep trying and you will master enough to have decent runs. It gets time. =) I look foward to watch news runs.
Good luck!
We are outta runners, more runs are always welcome, =) I see no problem with emulators
Although PS2 Emulators are always difficult to handle smoothly on many games. due to the alien architecture of playstation 2. But if you have a good PC and can do it, bring it on.
Alternatively (and best) Running the game with PS3 or PS4 seems the perfect idea as suggested
Since some Players want to play with these characters I created a new category: ARCADE MODE - Powerful characters.
How to play this category:
"Gain enough experience to display pictures of Dictator, Akuma, and Garuda in the Expert Mode screen. Now go to the character select screen and hold Start while choosing either Dictator, Akuma, or Garuda."

Como alguns jogadores querem jogar com esses personagens que causam mais dano, eu criei uma categoria: ARCADE MODE - Powerful characters.
Como abrir esses personagens:
"Ganhe pontos o suficiente no modo Expert para mostrar os icones de Garuda, Akuma e Dictator. Agora na tela de seleção, segure Start ao escolher Garuda, Akuma ou Dictator.
@MASH My idea was know more about Marathon Events. My thought was that "tournaments" had some to do with Marathons, lol. But you are right, sorry, I will delete the thread then
A simple silly question; I like to watch.

@MysticManiac Wuuuut! Niiice man! I'm gonna watch it right now! Congratulations for the WR!
I moderate a game that keeps track of both In game and Real time
https://www.speedrun.com/Duke_Nukem_Time_to_Kill#Wussy
But just to show an example, in this case it makes no difference for ranking, because whoever gets faster in Real timer, gets in In game timer as well, It's just a matter of keep tracking.
But when loadings take differences between platforms it really can change ranking, so it's important to keep that in mind.
That's very convenient! And very inclusive and practical. It allows everyone to get a InGame-timer comparison beetwen runs without concern about different platforms, or reading from a disc or hd. In my case I have a PS2 slim with no hard drive, I use the disc and it's tough. The loading times is really messed on this platform comparing to more simple architectures of its same generation as gamecube or Xbox specially with no hard drive installed (which also includes the factor using an emulator or real hardware)
But this can be a thing only if everyone agrees on. Specially mods. And also comes the question, it will be a variable or to change completely the Leaderboard records if times and rankings turn out to be different than current ones?
The way I see mods deal with brand new games that has few runners is to create 1 or 2 categories just as an experiment.
Since it's Just IMAGINE =D, All I can do now is tell you how I would do:
Streets of Rage Remake for PC;
Rules:
- Version of the game: 5.1 on it's Final Release (no mods)
- Game options must be shown as "default" settings (there is a "Default" button in Options menu what would make things easy)
- Cheats must be shown as all disabled
- No bosses and secret characters allowed (other than that, can pick any SOR version of original characters)
Since the game also try to mimic SOR1, SOR2 and SOR3 routes, we could pre-stablish the SOR1 route, SOR2 route and SOR3 route (routes would be stablished first stage to last stage)
First categories could start as the following ones:
- SOR1 route (Difficulty: Normal)
- SOR2 route (Difficulty: Normal)
- SOR3 route (Difficulty: Normal)
=)
