*IMAGINE A BUS*
That was the thing thart got me into Speedrun
What video was that from again?
TheNintendoFan37 pretty sure it’s Bismuths video about the breakdown of Super Mario Bros
BUS
@@sofknupbeat I think it was Darbian who first used it. Might be wrong though
That Todd Rogers meme is optimized.
@Max Blankenship Not only one of the best BUT THE BEST. Let's be real, it's just so optimized, much more optimized than any other meme. It's just simply the best.
I dunno, I hear it's unverified
@@lucyx3008 That's only because you didn't include the human element. You are just a jealous hater. There are at least a handful of people who can verify it because they were there when he started this meme in 2nd gear.
@@Black-Dawg-Jesus it's obviously supposed to be the SAIYAN element jfc dude
Black Jesus except its proven fake lol
Dude, you need to switch into second gear before the game starts. The programming don't matter, human element reprograms it live
Gex 3 in second gear!? You're a mad man...
wat
You weren’t there. Were u there?!?
Todd Rogers is an ex member of team Dai-Gurren
That was a bad game. In fact this controller is dodgy.
5:58 "start the level running" ahh yes, the todd rogers strategy
No no, it's a:
*ROLLING STAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRT!!!*
Start moving in SECOND GEAR
You have to start running in second gear
Start in the th end and
Todd Rogers can optimise speedruns beyond 100% perfection.
You made my day
Jajajajaja
@@itzLeonnnn
Doesn't take much to make your day, huh?
Snorlax nah man he started in second gear...................what do you mean that’s impossible
@@KCzz15 doesn't take much to make you respond to comments huh?
tomb raider 4 has some ridiculous speed run glitches, most absurdly, the one where you use the binoculars to just throw the camera at the level exit, essentially meaning Lara just looks at the end of the level and beats it lol
lol
still get so fucking sad when these videos pop up. you are deeply missed. not a day goes by where I don't wonder how happy if you were still with us and posted videos.... R.I.P a CZcams legend. we will always love you. ♥
I had no idea... Just looked it up... that's horrible...
I miss him too. It's so weird listening to his voice but knowing he is not with us anymore.
It's strange how you can get attached to someone without even meeting them. Listening to their voice everyday, they aren't really your friend but they are a part of your life.
@@darkjapan yeah... I understand what you mean. I didn't know what happened until just recently myself. RIP 🙏🙏
Yea this really sucks. I just found out yesterday
6:00 you can start the level running.
Don’t you mean iN sEcOnD gEaR
Lmao
Finally, Todd Roger's 5.51 run footage
Apollo Legend in 2019: OoT any% is one of the most optimized categories out there, it won't go too far below sub 17min
OoT runners in 2020: Hold my beer
Apollo is the only man with balls big and hard enough to stretch TWO videos to >10 minutes using the same TAS
It's a hell of a lot better than people who just speak really slowly to extend their content. At least with this i can just stop watching when the gex run begins if it doesn't interest me.
Don't hate the content creator; hate youtube for requiring dumb, arbitrary minimum video lengths to enable ads.
any content from apollo > no content from apollo
@@__w__o__w__ not true, he can still put ads on videos less than 10 minutes. This is bad content all around.
Not midrolls.
@@iroxudont so? This is CZcams's decision to make it so short videos don't have interruptions. There's a reason why this practice is in violation of CZcams's ToS.
Crazy hearing the voice of the lost.
Same
"It's not well made from a technical standpoint but it has a lot of character"
This describes so many of my favorite games
nice fashion week pfp
Movies for me.
Skyrim
souls games
Dead rising. Check out the channel stihpo or whatever. He is still making content from that game and delves further than anyone else I have ever seen.
"Developer laziness" come on dude. Making games is hard. Finding space on a limited cartridge is ingenuity.
yeah
Smash melee: allow me to introduce myself
Special mention to whoever managed to compress all the cutscenes enough to fit Rsident Evil 2 in a cartridge (wich is like a 90% reduction in size)
People who dont understand tend to undermine how things are done. Like people thinking that artists shouldnt be payed that much
@Mach bruh
The man, the myth, the (apollo) LEGEND

Man, this comment hits way differently now :(
Todd Rogers meme speedrun : 0:02 by Apollo Legend. This is a new WR !
Apollo > Todd Rogers
@@xtzyshuadog dude RESPEC TEH HOOMAN ELEMENT
rip brother, we love you
dude rest in peace bro, your videos were always super fun to watch. I hope you're resting easy up there homie.
Not even 5 seconds in and already a Todd meme, nice
I come back every so often just to watch the first 20 seconds.
this video is pretty umoptimized. You could save a lot of time by using the "gex 3 tas" skip using the save corruption glitch
no
@@ib_res2566 r/whoosh
Why all the hate for the Gex 3 Tas ;( cry inside...
Y'know, it's apparently one of his favorite games. Y'all keep hating on it and he'll probably keep posting about it to try and persuade you guys about its awesomeness.
@@LilJbm1 i'd be fine on its own but he's clearly using it to pad out the video to 10 minutes.
You could save a lot of time in your speedrun of life by drowning as a baby, so why didn't you do that?
The Charging Chuck thing isn't "developer laziness." It works for the same reason the credits warp works; the game going to unintended parts of memory. Usually, when consuming an item, the game reads from an area of memory that corresponds to that item. The Charging Chuck, of course, was never meant to be eaten, so instead of going to a table of things that correspond to the items you eat, it goes to a completely different part of memory instead. This happens to be the part of the ROM that executes instructions based on whatever was in a particular part of the RAM at the time. This part of RAM corresponds to things you can interact with in the level, so by changing a few things in the level around, such as enemy positions, you can essentially write the code that warps you to the end credits.
The fact that all of this is possible is nothing short of a miracle. if Charging Chuck weren't in that level, or if it corresponded to a part of memory that just crashed the game instead of magically being part of the ROM that interprets part of the RAM as instructions, or if the part of RAM that was executed as code couldn't easily be manipulated, none of this would have happened. It's basically like the planets aligning, similar to how everything lines up perfectly in Ocarina of Time, allowing players to warp to Ganon's Tower and beat the game in under 20 minutes. Both of these things are simply miraculous.
That's how I've always seen it
Thanks for posting this. Attributing interactions like this to 'developer laziness' is totally unnecessary and disrespectful
Thanks for this
I absolutely LOVED Gex as a kid! It was a game I played quite a bit and after my parents got evicted and we lost everything, and I subsequently went to live with my dad, it was one of the games I was never able to recover because I could not find a copy at my local game stores.
I really should look at maybe getting an emulated version to run on my PC just for the nostalgia...
This is my fav video, thanks a lot for the memories you are a legend RIP
legends never die ♥ they live on in our hearts forever
We’re all not considering something... Todd Rogers OBVIOUSLY went Super Saiyan on his Dragster run
*The intro. The absolute madlad did it!*
Apollo you will always be remembered! You are a legend to me!
RIP Apollo.
Todd Rogers sets his speedruns to 110% maximum possible speed
I thought he always started his speedruns in second gear
Wait, so you start Dam Agent in second gear?
Todd was right there whole time
Its kind of wierd getting a vid recommended by youtube thats a year old (I remember times where this was not so) its more wierd when that person has recently died (by self infliction) , I know im absolutely talking to the wind here but I had to have said that if "youtube" was a person then everyone here (incl me) would find that person incredibly improper
Another frame rule has been found in SMB's 4-2. Somewes is working on its viability now. It may not be long before it is.
Very nice tas, frogburt found you could warp to the final boss with the superhero flying ability only skipping 3 remotes, and I discovered TV cancelling which will suck you into the closest tv that is spawned. If there is no TV the game will put you in an infinite load for level 0 which there is none, thus giving you scrooge TV in the loading as level 1, but no proper destination. Props for putting everything together. Reece, andypanther, frogburt and myself put a lot of work into this game and it is nice to finally see it all put together. Thank you for figuring the game out once and for all. I know you probably wont see this due to the thousands of comments you receive, but thank you.
Great to see your videos. Keep it coming Apollo.
Karl Jobst got the first 52?
What an absolute legend.

Also nice unrelated gex video to get 10 minutes
I hope he'll do the gex stretch every video now
good to see your new content as always Apollo my dude. We all love you, you righteous bastard, stay strong, stay true!
I wish he’d taken this comment to heart. So sad this guy lost a war with depression.

Funny watching you today, talking about Zwlda OOT "under 20 minutes".
Great content as always my friend. I'm glad you're back.
Great video! I'm glad I was able to help you with the TAS :)
Glad to see you “back”! Cheers man
Welcome back man. I saw your CZcams community tab and saw you were struggling with dark thoughts. Really glad you got over it. Welcome back!
Good to see you back man
Came for the smb1 portion. It was a bit misinforming. No one is going to get a run that cant be beaten and the leaderboard isnt going to fill up with TWR's :l
summoning salt and bismuth did a good job at explaining how smb runs work, where the limits lie and the tradeoffs to choose from when coming up with strats and "routes".
I suggest anyone interested to take a look at those instead
Its the quality you can expect from Apollo. Passion but misplaced effort, prone to conspiratorial thinking and errors.
I mean, getting a perfect run isn't impossible. It probably will happen eventually.
@@codieb5612 and what makes you say that?
Thanks to frame rules, runs are already perfect up until literally the final pipe. The ONLY thing that can be improved is like the 3 jumps from the pipe, over the hammer bro, to Bowser. It's just a matter of frame perfect acceleration.
Right now, just my opinion, Bfbb (battle for bikini bottom) speed running has dozens of frame perfect and pixel perfect tricks. One is cruise boosting, which you need to have for over half the run. It’s a frame perfect trick, while trying to find the pixel perfect surface.
Guess whos back
Back again
Apollo's back
Tell a friend

Great video, so nice to have you back Apollo.
oot will always have a special place in my heart. stuff like revrse bottle adventure videos are what got me into speedrunning videos.
rip apollo, sad that you're gone
inb4 the Gex TAS becomes the outro of every video from now on.
that goddamn gex speedrun to stretch the video out to 10 minutes lol ;)
Awesome video man. Been following you for a little while now. Keep it up! And this is random but you sound like Young Jamie from the Joe Rogan podcast :]
Amazing video
Keep up the amazing work
Welcome back! I'm glad you're doing better, Apollo
Hope your feeling well man, great to see you back
Welcome back! Missed your videos.
A day with a new Apollo legend video is a damn good day lol
He’s back! The legend is back!
nice apollo, keep the videos coming!
There are a couple of small mistakes in the description of the Super Metroid techniques. For a damage boost, you not only need to press backward, you also have to press jump. You can see Samus do a backflip if you did it right. Damage boosts move her much faster than she normally can, so they are worth doing even when there is no way to use the invincibility frames. And when you describe the mockball, you make jumping through a door part of the trick, but that is not usually the case; there's just a door in the way in the place you showed. In general, all you have to do is morph while landing and then press forward again. This also seems to be an intended technique. Usually when you land on the ground in a ball, you bounce, but if you morph at just the right time as you land, you don't, and that's what allows you to keep your speed. Finally, the shinespark you described is not a secret. A friendly alien in the game called a dachora teaches you how to do this.
With the credits warp, I believe the idea behind the reason the game treats the charging chuck as a powerup is that instead of saying "if the item is a mushroom, execute code A, if the item is a fire flower, execute code B, etc" it says "execute the code with the number associated with the item" and it just jumps to some location much further than the actual code provided because the chuck is much higher id than the highest powerup.
Not sure if that's the reason but that's my guess. All items could be treated as a powerup and would just jump to random unused code locations.
thanks for giving gex 3 the love it deserves!
Now that arbitrary code execution is common i think we need to give Todd another chance
Torje playing Ocarina is amazing, even for a non-speedrunner (and definitely no expert) like myself.
Nice TAS, by the way!
That has to be the best intro I've ever seen
Mock ball in SM doesn't require a door transition. Just requires that you jump in the air, lose vertical momentum, hold jump again then hit down on roughly the last pixel available, then hit the direction you are moving. This can be done almost instantaneously.
I think destiny 2s scourge of the past raid is a really good example of a well optimized speed run.
Its hard to say, because its an online only game, and the speed run is with 6 people. Also the game is always evolving so you will use different dps strats at different times, but the core run is very very optimized. And also just a really really cool and interesting run.
I come back to this video sometimes just for that intro. Makes me chuckle everytime~
Glad to see you well. Long live The Apollo Legend!
You're back Apollo!
great vid and will miss u always. you peaked my interest in speed running though ill never be able to do it lol. rest in peace.
love seeing another video. keep it up!
Link to the Past: no wrong warping allowed.
Ocarina of Time: wrong warping embraced.
The speed running community is so inconsistent and finicky :D
Great video! Would love to see more optimized runs, maybe a future video?
He has returned!!! Welcome back man
OoT is even more broken than this video says, new strats finish the game under 8 mins and skip the whole deku tree and warp directly to the credits.
THE LEGEND IS BACK, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love that you mentioned Carl!
You HAVE RETURNED HOLY SHIT
I miss playing Gex, that game is most of my childhood. Especially Gex 3D
I seriously hope that a remaster is made one day
Great video - almost 100% optimized - just need voice presentation tweaks
A few days ago, I beat the WR for Ancient Lake car time trial in Diddy Kong Racing, and the record was 3 years old prior to me breaking it. Within 2 days, another player beat my time and his flap record is now 2 frames off TAS.
Oof
welcome back mane
"There are times like 5.57 seconds in Dragster that are perfect and can't be improved at all". OMG, I'm dying!
Doesn't make sense because Todd Rodgers got a 5.51
When I saw jobst I heard him say "Hello you absolute legends"
Yeah, I got excited.
Yo! Apollo, good to see you back, dude!
Ey another Gex fan! I loved the Gex games as a kid and they still mean so much to me now!
I’ve never been happier turning the notifications on! At last Apollo!
Well TAS can make any game into this list. But we are talking about human inputs so I understand.
the pokemon one u show is for red and blue ONLY the yellow version glitch is more in depth requiring specific character names and items
Make more content please. I've watched all of it ❤️
That intro animation reminds me of Rathergood's old stuff. I love it.
Some random guy: wonders what a framerule is
Darbian: *breaks through the wall* SO IMAGINE A BUS
Every fking time I was amazed by how the fk did these speedrunners figured those insane strat/glitch, at the same time I am being more disgusted about the movie, ready player ome, where they dont know how games actually work or thinking gamers are IQ of -50. One scene where the hidden/true strat of beating the race game is by driving backward only. I was like how the fuck no one figured that out when there are million of amazing gamers out there(Even poor people can access that game). I just cant describe how mad I was when watching the scene. The director has 0 idea about gaming.
I listen to a podcast that covered this book, 372 Pages, and one of the hosts was so disgusted on that plot point. "One of the first things everyone does in a racing game is run backwards, and you're telling me not one of those thousands of people tried it until now??"
the man is back!!!
