Hey man it might be worth upgrading the hdd on your Xbox to an SSD it should cut your load times by over half it should apply to save times too

[@thepizzaguy8477]

one must imagine Syphrus happy

[@snowiecore]

tas is not the bot itself bozo

[@Chief592]

This video was hard to watch, most of it was you ignorantly complaining. You didn’t even know the route to run and how to work a splitter to pause during loading times. Blamed your hardware and game for your rushed incompetence

[@packthepuck]

Syphilis never fails to disappoint us.

[@splitfire3114]

Trueeee

[@Orincaby]

SYPHILIS 😊😊

[@loopooillohg]

one must imagine syphilis is happy

[@joebeezy9471]

🤣🤣

[@arvoof5945]

Never watched a skate 3 video, not even that into speedrunning, yet i watched this video all the way through in one sitting. This is extremely well made with the right pacing and humour, exceptional job!

[@hippy_flip]

Now how fast can you beat Skate 3 without ollies?

[@Syphrus]

3 gallons

[@8666]

3 snickers and a kickflip

[@gamr6354]

around 2 dreamcast controllers

[@Chonkems]

5 "Mother's Beads" Artifacts.

[@leorudling5291]

probably 3 ish inches

[@DiscretePanda]

I can’t believe I watched the whole thing lol. Great video man, congrats on beating the speed run world record. You’re insane!

[@boaandarrows]

Banger start to end, was awesome seeing the progression and problem solving live over June and how your focus changed during the challenge in video.

[@jacobborders8957]

it hilarious hearing Josh KALES over and over.

[@RobertT1999]

Impressive. I feel fortunate to be aware of someone learning how to speedrun for the first time and making the WR, especially someone who I watch every video of.

[@elilongacre2658]

Skate 3 is one of the greatest games ever made. This video was amazing and I hope people never stop playing skate

[@ThisUsernameSystemF-ckingSucks]

And they are ruining skate 4 by making it free with endless predatory microtransactions. Fuck EA.

[@BillyBob-kj4qq]

​@@ThisUsernameSystemF-ckingSucksthis hurt to hear. I didn't know about that. :(

[@TheDarkfighter101]

The adaptive brightness being reversed from what you expect is normal for TN monitors. TN usually have terrible black levels and saturation compared to other digital monitor tech so the brightness goes up on bright scenes so colors pop and goes down on dark scenes to make blacks darker. Sometimes it’s a setting but it can also be baked into the driver board. Zone dimming is a more modern implementation of the same idea that darkens the backlight only for dark colors.

[@JJJackson777]

I couldn't speedrun skate 3, i have a chronic illness that prevents me from going more than 15 minutes without changing outfits

[@colin.1258]

finally finished this video, your style and just overall editing is so unique and enjoyable especially as a fan of skate, much love man

[@alexwise-]

What a ride of a video this has been, my dude. Peak entertainment right here! 👍👍👍

[@KeroKeroGrips12]

“There we go…” - Sy on day 4

[@nothingcosmic3468]

Found this channel recently and been loving its content. This video is the best one I’ve seen so far and is absolutely amazing. Just wanted to let you know you did an amazing job in this video and even had me fuckin cheering for you at points. Noice 👍

[@SupaScared]

Banger video dude, can't wait til you run Skate 2 next year!

[@yoMXTT]

This video is so good man. The one thing i have started to dislike in the speed running documentaries is that after most things have been explained and youve been wwtching a good minute, Going over the runs in between the start and the record, The footage and what people talk about gets real stale, real quick. Reusing the same footage or reshowing the exact same parts over and over, Just maybe a tenth of a second faster, gets old real fast and i turn the video off. But i mean holy fuck dude this video is 2 hours long and I actually watched just about all of the video. Just listened to the audio of the parts i didnt watch. But still. Fuckin banger. I can only imagine the stress you were feeling when you're putting so nuch into getting the record, Being still a couple minutes off and then luke comes and grabs the record. Really had to put the pressure on you and maybe even started to doubt yourself. But you pushed through and got an INSANE world record. Congratulations on that, You earned the fuck out of that record. Also, The bit of your one buddy attempting to speedrun for the first time was a great addition. broke up the staleness and got me to laugh ahaha. All love to you and the discord boys.

[@Darkshock25]

KZbinrs are allowed to re-use the same footage over and over again, whether it allows them to more views or less views. It’s their decision. I watched the whole thing many times and I never got bored of the same clips he showed. Don’t criticize his logic. 🤨

[@Larslegos]

I loved this video man. This video is so slept on fr. I enjoyed every second

[@ItsjustBlackJackhere]

Was really excited for this video thanks syphilitic

[@Spillages]

Great video first Skate 3 vid i wanted to watch in a while 👍🏻

[@Mattman993]

New sub, really enjoying. Just one thing: adaptive brightness always works this way. The idea is that when it’s bright out, you need a brighter display to actually see anything. When it’s darker, you’ll have a visible display with less backlight. If you want to fix this you could tape an LED to the sensor on your monitor and trick it into thinking it needs max brightness

[@zanik2.054]

i am excited, a (pretty much) 2 hour video from sy, nice!

[@eahemming]

1:42 amazing to see that Ovendonkey speedrun of Mirror's Edge during SGDQ. That run will always be legendary to me because that was the run that got me into speed running a decade ago. After that I played mirrors edge for hundreds of hours trying to set good times. It really is a hard game, they weren't kidding during the livestream. well anyway, back to the video!

[@ventilo1825]

It's actually heartbreaking for me cause your video gave me the motivation to try to speedrun this game but then I remembered that none of my controllers are working :( btw the next step now would be to speedrun the other categories lol

[@1RED1]

I know I'm 5 months late, but I love your love for skate 3. I'm the same way for GTA San Andreas

[@AKtoTok]

😂 i lol'd irl when u brought up TAS, i had the same initial reaction lmao

[@Sorable]

I wanna try, but watching this video has terrified me

[@user-fc3xv7nb9c]

glad to see syphrus on my yt again, reminds me of 2017

[@sethweir8752]

Wow somebody beat the record by 2 seconds, 22 days ago :( Loved the grind and video man keep it up.

[@Syphrus]

I'm not sad, more glad actually. The time can go a minute faster but I'm not doing that lol

[@TheReviewer63]

Definitely felt a lot of the hardships you felt when I used to speedrun portal. Murphy's law is real.

[@TheGovernment101]

Great video and explanation. I've just checked the leaderboard and 7 days ago someone beat the record by 2 seconds. That's insane

[@Syphrus]

whats insane is he was hard stuck at 1:12 when I was running it

[@bugsjam]

upload more anything honestly. You and your homies funny asl

[@railsnaker]

watching this makes me start skating my 3

[@mmmmm1010]

Love the Art of Rally music showing up in these vids

[@poab3036]

I remember being in the livestream actively being incomprehensible and confusing I look forward to doing it again

[@Sleeperlol]

Nice vid Sisyphus

[@CurryEater07]

Great video, Can't wait for you to speedrun Skate when it eventually comes out and break mentally because of it😂

[@FazVoLT]

wow inspirational thank you sypiss

[@zaydangles]

Man always drops documentaries on skate 3 🔥💯

[@Lazurite]

im gonna watch this while at work

[@TVEE]

Such an underrated video.

[@TurbopropPuppy]

that dumpster-launching shit is some of the funniest goddamn shit i've ever seen holy fuck i have tears in my eyes

[@TurbopropPuppy]

1:45:38

[@HyundaiofficialAccount]

I can’t believe im gonna lose new skate 3 vids from syphrus when skate 4 comes out

[@TWDEColtBlooded]

skipping the 1:13 makes this truly a speedrun challenge of all time

[@AlexandraSpeaks]

It took 6 months for someone to be at this record by 2 seconds AFTER syphrus put all this work in for others, that's how impressive this record is

[@censoredialogue]

lol as a musician who’s been skating since 08 and playing the game since release i def wanna try to speed run this game after i finish my album

[@PexiTheBuilder]

Maybe that brightness-thingie could be tricked by putting led on sensor of it..

[@McLitty]

i used to have an lg monitor that did the same thing used to piss me off heaps in games like counterstrike

[@v3co]

very enjoyable video, watched the whole thing..

[@ofr7581]

syphrus is the summoning salt of the skate 3 community

[@ziggy4752]

Definitely do more

[@morrisdc5814]

i feel bad this got beat by 2 seconds 😭

[@birdmangamez470]

On the Dozer challenge, it would say blunt if you were on the inside of the rail and tail if you were on the outside

[@sway_onthetrail]

LOL I had a whole comment typed out correcting you no Kalis name and then I got to day 7 and deleted it while dying laughing. How could no one correct you on that for SEVEN days hahaha. Great content, this was a blast to watch.

[@Syphrus]

13 years*

[@KC-FLIPS]

Bro I was hooked on subway because that's exactly what started happening no joke😂😂

[@censoredialogue]

the way you say Josh Kalis kills me lmfao

[@timgallagher8934]

When she speedrun on my skate till I 3 Great vid and congrats

[@gamezboi_]

RECORD BROKEN 🗣🗣🗣🗣

[@papaguac9288]

I like the video for skate 3 and summoning salts

[@josecastanos8297]

Luke stealing the skate 3 world records as usual

[@user-qe9zn2xr5s]

Was in last one good speed run bro

[@KC-FLIPS]

44:35-45m is hilarious 🤣🤣

[@mikey24788]

I was playing Wind Waker while watching this video and was so confused why the house music was playing when i was sailing the great sea

[@givowo]

livesplit has entered chat

[@-invalid-2882]

im just suprised load times are calculated into the final time usually those are taken out to adjust for internet differences

[@Syphrus]

Pretty sure it's most likely for pc games. Not everyone has the same rig. For skate 3 we are all playing on a universal console. Xb1 and series x and s have similar load times.

[@bfplay4freebattlefie]

You know what this means - time to get the 100% WR

[@MaxLustig]

some sort of tas where all the follow npcs get launched to the end of their route would be funny af

[@agnome7735]

he played skate 3 for a month straight crazy

[@Tiago13337]

Damn nice one!!❤

[@AlexandraSpeaks]

Best skate 3 video of all time? I think so

[@domi--]

Speedrunning syphrus new video

[@gabticio]

If you wanna exit a grind you can just hit “A” and it will slide you off

[@kamek7246]

@25:56 dont know if it matters all too much to ya now but you can set a 1 sec delay in livesplit so it syncs up with the capture, i had the same old elgato for a while and i had to do that lol

[@Syphrus]

i learned that later in my challenge, just never talked about it

[@SvetoslavGluhchev]

Gt4 music goes crazy

[@leorudling5291]

is that mirrors edge music wow thats a throw back

[@ophusky]

holy shit sy 2hours golly

[@felipetamayorivaspla]

yoo skate it was really cool!

[@Giitzerland]

I haven't heard anyone say "LIBERRY" since I was 5, hah thanks man! :D

[@carterfurman6601]

lmfao that TAS joke

[@failed_artist2503]

This make me wish I still knew where my 360 copy of stake 3 was it also makes me wish I could get skate 3 for my ps5

[@KC-FLIPS]

It's funny to see you get 2nd place halfway through the video knowing you have more an hour+ of video until you get 1st. 😂😂😂

[@jordanlewis3790]

Really enjoyed the video tho

[@MadDexSkillz]

1:17:00 GOAT SIM MUSIC SUCH A CLASSIC YOUR A W

[@AKtoTok]

Badass! Did you do this on easy or hardcore? Easy mode on this game is unplayable for me, would be curious to see your time on hardcore!

[@Syphrus]

[@fuzzyplays2321]

20:57 OL DIRTY BASTARD MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣 WTF ARE UNDERSTANDABLE LYRICS 💯💯💯💯💯

[@johnbacon4997]

[@user-pb8vj8ml9l]

Celebrating Pride Month < Speedrunning Skate 3
