Other games?! Preposterous!

I wanna do the Excalibur II Perfect Game for FFIX, but I don't agree with the stat paths. The main problem with perfect stats is that stat-boosting equipment contributes fractions of points to your stats when you level up, so you have to level up with the best equipment to get good stats. This basically requires you to play the whole game at level 1 wherever possible. For some forced encounters you have to jump through really small hoops (not literally) to avoid EXP. When you are forced to get EXP, you have to figure out which party member suffers the least stat loss by absorbing the EXP while not having their best equips on. Also the endgame stat paths after getting the sword are prioritized in order of usefulness (Spirit, Strength, Magic, Speed) with strength and magic switched depending on the character. I don't like that, because even though it gets you to 50 Spirit and no more (with 50 being the max) and that way you don't waste points invested into Spirit, that makes the Spirit boosting equipment less effective when you are level 99. I'm trying to get it so that if the best Spirit boosting equip a character has gives +7, they should end up with 43 Spirit, and the other stats get to whatever the highest average ends up as. Even if Speed (which turns out to be rather useless due to the way the ATB works) is what more points can be gained in, I will gain them in favor of Strength or Magic.

If you have no clue what I'm talking about and why I'm going to all this trouble, suffice it to say that the Excalibur II is the ultimate weapon for the knight character in FFIX, and it cannot be collected after the clock hits 12 hours. This sword is in a dungeon on disc 4. How inconvenient.

There was one guy who wrote a program to determine the best stat paths for the criteria GameFAQs had set (I had thought of doing this too but I suck at writing code) but that still doesn't help me because I'm looking for highest average stats without wasting Spirit boosts from equipment.

Dance Dance Revolution (I'm pretty good at this)
I play other games occasionally, and I used to try Super Mario 64 speedruns, but I don't play a lot of games besides Zelda and DDR.

Always planned on Banjo Kazooie any%. I'm also currently trying to get a hold of mystical ninja to do some type of any% run... ani knows heh. I should also mention I've done some work with sm64, super mario sunshine, dk64 and there are probably other games I'm forgetting cause its 8 am right before school and I went to bet way too late. >_>

I will play pretty much any decent fighting game. I mainly play 3rd strike and used to play a shitload of SSBM. Fighting games own.

Metroid Prime, a little bit of pogeymanz and sonic games.

[Ænlgån]

Yes. Here are a few games: Super Metroid, Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Smash Bros, Melee, Brawl, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, F-Zero GX, Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart DS, and Mario Kart Wii.

That's about it. Love all the Metroids, but Prime and Super Metroid are the best. Also love Galaxy and 64; I sometimes speed run Mario Galaxy. Smash I just play with my friends and the same about the Mario Karts.

[MrSparkle]

Racing games and tactical games own.

[CzarTheDragon]

I use to speedrun invidual levels of SMW, just trying to break WRs.
Also trying to make good races in Mario Kart 64 and F-Zero X.

I used to speedrun MKDS in time trials, back in 2007 before I left I was #33 Worldwide and #2 Canadian on the MK player's page in AF PRB. You can still find some old records of my PR's, Myths and GODs on my youtube page @ MasterLuigiSW. Now I'm like #47 (a couple pr's I've never posted, so it's not uptodate) and I stopped since 3 years Hopefully MK3DS won't be a newbie mario kart like MKWii and snaking will be possible just like in mkds or mkdd. http://www.mariokart64.com/mkds/profile.php?pid=629

I would gladly speed run other games such as SM64, MK64, B-K, B-T, DK64, MM2, and CV1 and probably more. But PAL instead of NTSC prevents this, so I just play other games for fun instead of speed running.

I've been time attacking Sonic Adventure 2 a lot recently. I'm not the best (yet ) but I'm somewhat decent I guess.
