I know it's not the same but Therio, myself and (maybe) Adam are considering submitting a SADX relay if you're interested, we've got runners for Sonic, Gamma and Big, so if you know anyone who can do the others, point them to the ESA submission thread when it gets put up.

I love all of the versions of Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 for speedruns. There are so many weird level/physics glitches to abuse.

I know a couple of people who have ran SADX so I can tell them about it when I see them next. Dunno how recently they did it mind, but I can pass the word around for ya.

unsurprisingly the overlap between freedom planet guys and sonic guys is pretty large

I wanna learn SM this year, should be pretty "fun"

It's sooo goood, and there's a smooth learning curve at least until you're getting close to an hour and ya gotta buckle down on the bosses. Zoast and oats+sweetnumb both have exhaustive tuts: http://www.twitch.tv/zoasty/c/3574041, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA9JK6IE24g. I think it's the Zoast one that includes some extra safety e-tanks and missles and such making it a lot easier to learn and cut out steps as you feel comfy.

How many hours does romscout have in that game, jeeeez o_O.

Dunno if I'll get anything done in it before Street Fighter drops but I just picked up rear end Creed Chronicles India last night to try learning something fresh and undocumented. I'm real spoiled by awesome controls and savestates but it's fun so far, and I'm dying a fair bit which I take as a good sign for making things interesting.
