This category has seen its first ever sub 30 minutes IGT run !!! Pulled off by none other than roku_, and verified today, the run looks virtually perfect.

Ever since the 32 min mark had been breached nearly a month after the game's release, it was a possibility. And although periodical progress was made, through the shape of ever so slightly greater runs, it still was up to anyone's guess if the game allowed enough time to be saved for that goal to truly be realistic. It is hard to believe, but it's now done. Not only that, but 12 seconds of spare. Truly astounding.

While roku_ did his thing, Adachi, another top player, was slowly and quietly working hiw way up. He surprised everyone by choking two WR attempts, and then finally getting redemption with a two seconds improvement run, a 30:10. Although roku_ ended up taking it back, and that Adachi did not end up getting the sub first (possibly so because he moved away from the grind onto something else), in the end, we all know he has such ability. And you can say what you want, but it would be awesome to see another sub 30 min run happen, especially that soon after the first one. So, let's cheer him on ! If he's interested of course.
