Portal Speed Run Competition

[Switchyyy]

OK, so for some reason, everyone here has an affinity for Portal. So I decided last night during the Community Night to start an official Portal Competition.

The rules are quite simple, all you have to do is have a copy of Portal for PC/Mac (XBOX is fine if you have a capture card, but PC/Mac is encouraged), and then take a screen shot of your time after your run. You can also do a XFire if you want, as long as you upload it to YouTube. Which ever is your fastest time, for whatever level, just PM me the picture/video.

The fastest times for each level, I will post the picture/video up, with the corresponding person's name. Now go play Portal.

I thought it was a speed run through the ENTIRE GAME, from start to finish.

Winner gets all of switchys Valve stuff :p

[Switchyyy]

That's a good idea. But there's no way to calculate that unless you can add a timer.

If you want my Valve stuff, you got to beat me first. :D

My G15 has a timer :D
but if you dont have a timer, how do you time the last levels?
on a side note does anyone have Halo CE on PC or know how to mod it?

[Switchyyy]

I thought we would just do the Bonus Maps, like Level 13-18. But I'll add it if you cut every part of the video out from door open to door closed.

[Alpha I Omega]

I was just assuming a speed run from start to finish, but i guess load times would vary...

[AllTimeMitch]

I will so join in on this, although as we all know. Keyboards and Mouses > Controllers :rolleyes:

*Edit* Also just to confirm, is it the actual story line test chambers or the Challenge Maps?

I just got 5 seconds :p

O and if you want to unlock those other maps you just have to beat them in story mode first and then you can play them in bonus maps.

I have beaten it :/
but the 5 seconds is too hard for me, ive gotten close to the 3rd portal but never get it... :(

[Switchyyy]

The same thing happen to me a couple a months ago during an update and I lost some of my best times. And I had to rebeat everything.

EDIT: Yeah that last portal is hard, it took me like 15 tries to get it.

[Alpha I Omega]

If you tried you could probably get 1 minute on 16...

Heh... I should get in on this with my old Steam copy, but I'm worried my times are going to be WAAAAY slow...

Infact, I don't think I even have the update that shows the time it took you to complete the level, LOL.

You might as well clock in all the levels after 16 haha. You will be the fastest as nobody has done them yet :p

... and does everyone on this forum use Steam except for me. I feel left out on my 360 copy lol.
