Please refer to the Verification Guidelines before posting. Verifications are due by Feb. 17, 2014.

Please post your opinions about the run and be certain to conclude your post with a verdict (Accept/Reject). This is not a contest where the majority wins - I will judge each verification on its content. Please keep your verification brief unless you have a good reason otherwise.

After 2 weeks I will read all of the verifications and move this thread to the main verification board and post my verdict.

Not a walrus

Please note that this run was going to go through private verification, but all but one of the verifiers had to bow out for one reason or another. Rather than wait for more verifiers this run has gone to public.

A/v is good.

Time from character control to loss of meaningful input is 1:47:05. Final save time lists time as 1:46:59 due to quirks of pause abuse, nothing substantial to note.

Run looks fine, although it should be noted that there have since been substantial improvements by the runner (WR as of this posting is 1:45:02 using presumably game time methods). While there is definitely room for improvement in this particular run, and that improvement has occurred, there is still significant improvement over the current record on SDA to warrant my decision. Looking forward to seeing the runner submit a sub 1:45.

Accept.

Only Offense Will Survive

A/V is fine. Champloo mentioned everything important but I have to say that this heavly improvable - but its still a decent time and a huge improvement over the old one. Please note that there are noteable differences between PAL and NTSC (NTSC is about two minutes slower than PAL). Looking forward to a 1:43 in the future.

Edit: WR is 1:43:30 now.

Accept.

Exoray

I'm confused as to which category this run actually is. Is there a difference between NG+ and Special weapons? All other runs for the gamecube version seems to be with special weapons except the japanese version which is NG+.

There is no difference, Special weapons = New Game +
It would be cool if it can be changed on the RE4 page in my opinion

Only Offense Will Survive

That will most likely happen after my run is fully reviewed.
I want to see a 1:40 in this category later this year. Smiley
