The Xbox One Port for Blinx the Time Sweeper has recently come out, and if you look at any Video showcasing it, you'll see that the Loading Times are only one second long. The Loading Times on the Original Xbox are inconsistent. this Video showcasing the Japanese Version is the fastest loading time i've seen for the Game, lasting 2 seconds There might be a way to Mod the Original Xbox to decrease the Loading times for the Game. See this thread here https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/34zpk3/original_xbox_load_times/cqzxiks/
There's also the fact that you can still make Blinx run faster by moving diagonally, watch any part of this Video and it's easy to notice I'm not sure what type of Controller the Player is using to do this, but their not the only one who's able to do this trick
I've also seen Videos for the Xbox One where Blinx does not move faster when moving diagonally, so finding the right Controller to speedrun the game might still be an issue. i'm not sure whether this is because of the Player's Controller Limitations or their just not pushing the Analog stick far enough.
Lastly, it's a Port of the Original Release and not the Platinum One. A run on an Original Xbox with the Platinum Version would likely still be faster depending on how fast your Xbox can load each level, but if the Platinum Version does get released for the Xbox One, then it would be the fastest way to speedrun the Game. Either way, from what i've seen so far, the Xbox One Port offers an equal playing field for everyone, due to it's consistent loading times.
I've noticed that once you hit the Chronohorn on it's final green phase, you can still pause, use time controls, move, or die before the boss fades away. Technically once you deliver the final hit to the Chronohorn, it take exactly 3 seconds for the game to be finished. Thats when the in-game timer stops and you're unable to perform any actions. I was wondering if the timing method for this boss should be changed for this reason.
