Ewil the game was never made to run at 60FPS, if you play a game on an emulator then the game should run at the Natural framerate it was supposed to not a higher framerate.

Here's something to mention someone has ran this game in the past and done a Any% run and got some silly time due to the game running at 60FPS and being a TAS, now I know that TAS runs are not allowed because well you're not doing the run - a program is. The whole 60FPS is also another reason why it wasn't allowed either IMO, there are 3 different versions of the game (PAL, NTSC and U) and the last one (U) is actually a modified NTSC iso that allows the game to run at 60FPS.

Plus another thing to note about the 60FPS runs is that there is no game lagging/frame rate drops like in the original game, therefore any game running outside of the natural framerate should be disallowed completely.

It's ok, I do apologise for all of this mess. If we could have a word via PM somehow then that would be better I think.

So it has recently come to my attention that those who are running on Emulators (Including myself) have all got different framerates.

I have got 30FPS for mine however CoopeZz and recently VGRDaftPunk (who recently came on the scene) both have their games running at 60FPS. I'd like to discuss whether these runs should now start to be allowed for the leaderboards as I personally don't think they should.

It sounds like I want this to happen because then I get my record back however considering that the game only ran at 2 main framerates to begin with (25FPS for PAL and 30FPS for NTSC) I think this would be a right decision as then that way the runs are definitely legit as the games are running at their proper framerates.

Any thoughts on this matter would be welcomed as I think we should get this sorted properly.

Hi there, So as some of you may know there is a Championship mode which takes you through the entire game and I was thinking why isn't there a leaderboard for it?

I mean it would make sense since that is something you can do which counts as completing the game, I actually did a full run and it took me just over an hour to complete the game so would be a fun category to do I reckon?

Any thoughts on this would be welcomed :)

My Championship Run Attempt:

Sounds like a good plan to me ;)

Agreed ?

https://www.speedrun.com/cmr If you fancy running one of these games then feel free to, we're always looking for new runners regardless of their experience. My advice would be to run the first game in the series on either PC or PlayStation :)

The game is rather easy to pick up and play but if you want more of a challenge then you can always go for a harder difficulty ;)

@Ewil I can confirm the game is different on the DS and GBA versions although whether they follow the same route I'm unsure, I did manage to do a Any% run for the GBA version a while back but it is basically Finish the Game as you cannot skip any bosses and there's probably about 2 races that you don't have to do in the entire game to face Razor.

Here's my run for those that are curious:

GTX 970 is my graphics card and I have a i5-3770k as my Processor

I'm having trouble with my FPS on the game, even with V-Sync enabled which locks it to 30FPS I have bad frame rate drops a fair bit when doing my run and it's very off-putting when trying to attempt a run any idea on how to fix this problem?

I've got all my settings on low for Visual Graphics and play at 720p windowed and it is still a big problem :/ Any tips on how to fix this then that would be great :D

Hi there, there will be a few changes to the main leaderboard for this game:

• Times for just the rallies should be moved to their respective level leaderboards
• For the main leaderboard only Championship% will be shown as that is a full game run

Any questions feel free to send them my way and I'll answer them of course ;)

Yeah @Bastos that one is hard, put in a fair bit of practice to get that run looking forward to seeing how you get on with it ;)

The game has now been setup if you guys want to submit any runs ;) http://www.speedrun.com/The_Italian_Job_LA_Heist

I'd be up for doing a speedrun on the game, so there's no page on here for it right but could you class it as part of a series like The Italian Job series or would it just be on it's own and separate from the rest?

Hi, Just out of curiosity could there be a 100% category for this game? I was thinking it would mainly consist of the story, checkpoint, destructor and challenge all put together to count as the run. Any opinions on this would be awesome to hear :)
