I've been playing Sonic Gems Collection's Sonic CD a lot lately, having a blast with the Time Attack mode. I noticed in the Sonic Rush thread a few weeks ago Craig Bayfield posted a link to This Website in which you can upload your scores/times for Sonic Rush, among other games. Well I'm not interested in competing in Sonic Rush because the game is overrated, but I'd like to compete for best times in Sonic CD.
I was disappointed that Sonic CD wasn't on that website, so I searched all over the Internet for about 10 minutes for a website like it that allows people to submit times for Sonic CD. I never found what I was looking for.
Would anyone here know where I can find such a website? I want to know what the best times are out there so I can aim to beat them. I've found so called "Developers times" which aren't that hard to beat. *shrugs*
Would the fact that I'm playing the PAL Sonic Gems Collection mean that my times will always be slower because it's running at 50Hz compared to somebody playing the NTSC version running at 60Hz?
And I got 0:00 on Palmtree Panic Act 1. I don't know how, I was just doing really well and I noticed the time in the top corner was going all screwy. Once I finished it ranked me in at 0:00. A glitch, or did I transcend time?

Yep..think so!
www.soniccenter.org/
(go to Rankings, click on game, then times/boss/score/whatever)
(note: I actually mentioned this site in the Sonic Rush thread, but I guess it didn't get noticed
)
Enjoy!
(Personally, my reaction to the site was o0!)
*bows*
Thankyou Arikyrenne! As Bunnie Rabbot would say "Your mah hero!"
Looks like there are some worthy challengers on there. Excellent. ^^
Don't mention it!^^
...I think I stumbled onto that site when looking for record boss attack times for SA2/B...or perhaps when I was looking for how to get the Maria theme?? (don't remember) So far, I don't think I've beaten any of the times (or matched, for that matter), though I haven't really been playing much lately!
(Actually, when I first saw this topic, I thought it would be a place to post time scores etc....a bit off topic, but I've been thinking about starting a thread like that in the SPA of the EliteBoard for a while now! Any thoughts?)

I was going to make this thread for that, but because this forum is being put down soon I didn't bother. ^^;
I think it would be a great idea if somebody started one. Maybe a sub-forum on the Eliteboard so we can make different threads for each respective game. Perhaps the first post can be edited to show who has the highest score in each act, and so on.

Sounds pretty cool.
If you or anyone else knows how to do that, feel free (since I have no idea how to )!
*hopeful look in eyes*
I look forward to seeing a topic like that sometime in the (hopefully near) future!^^
The UK version does seem to suffer this flaw, and CD does have time glitchy stuff, so I doubt I'll bother digging up Gems for this, but let me know what your final time is 
I know I did something below the 34 minutes required to unlock all the secrets but I doubt it's anything high ranking.
I prefer Rush for this sort of thing because it's like the game was designed with time trials and high scores in mind.
I think I'll just stop and play a bootleg version of the NTSC game once I get my PS2 chipped a little later this week. Hopefully the times are still in English.
Damn Sega of Europe for not including a 60Hz option. It's pretty much been the standard since forverer. >=(
My best time isn't that great either, mostly because I've been focusing on the Plamtree Panic and Collision Chaos. I only did a few runs through the later levels just to unlock the extras. Haven't even started on perfecting them yet.
My best overall time is: 19'39"41
Keeping in mind it added the 0'00"00 I did on Palmtree panic. My actual PTP time is 00'26"00, so add that on to my total score.
