Even beyond that, the physicality of the level design is great. The fact that they didn’t rely on floating platforms and instead made the levels feel like authentically real places is something I’ve really appreciated about this game in retrospect.
One of the best licence based games I ever played and a childhood fav. Never 100 percented it because I suck as a gamer. I loved seeing someone speedrun it this well.
Got the platinum for this game cos it looked fun. Took me about 5 hours. Thought id look up a speedrun. Realised it coulda been done in the time it takes me to blink apparently. Holy shit man
A couple weeks ago I was chilling with my three siblings. We played the hell out of this game on the N64 together so we got used to watching other people play. Long story short, nothing to watch, someone suggested watching playthroughs of old games and this was one. My sister has never watched a speedrun before so it was hillarious seeing her so peeved off that some one like you could pull of some of the crazy shit you did here. Happy to say we watched you from start to finish so you made a good sibling memory. Props to you man and keep speedrunning!
I played the pc version back in the day with my sisters when it was showcased on all the stores. Needless to say you just unlocked some beautiful memories with this! Still to this day this game is just a masterpiece! The soundtracks, the mapping, the gameplay. Thanks sir! Congratulations on your Speedrun!
The amount of memory and precision it takes to pull this off is utterly insane. How are your hands not completely cramped from constantly navigating for so long? You make it look so easy. Wow, just incredible to watch!
I just beat this game last night and doing the part where you have to climb the fire escapes took me like 25 mins to complete because I kept missing the wires Watching you climb up it no problem WITHOUT a grappling hook kinda just pissed me off lol good shit man
Damn I didnt know that there are this many shortcuts to complete the levels. It's amazing to see your childhood game which is 25yo get mastered like that. It gives you this feeling that despite you beat the game, you still didn't know shit about it
Great run :D Cant tell how many times I beat this game as a kid, so seeing some skips in this blew my mind (like skipping locking character in place during dialogs) amazing ^^
Bro had to backtrack to Andy’s Neighborhood but managed to complete both Alleys and Gullies and Al’s Toy Barn without the required gadgets in one try 😂😭😭
Dude loses .002 seconds on the stairs. “That was ass.” Oooh he’d fucking beat the shit out of me if he saw how long it took me to get up the stairs on my first play through 2 days ago.
Try downloading the PC version and seeing if that works, if it doesn't then you can always play on N64 Emu which should run perfectly on all devices. *Link:* docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KtduYDKLRJLKsiHkslPNmHeG-xNHhV72kkLeiAwyWCE
Many of the changes in N64 ports of games like this are because cartridges had less space than disks. They had to figure out which things to cut or change to make it fit
I wouldn't be able to tell you. I can't really give an estimate since there's a lot of practice and testing that's time spent not necessarily doing runs.
How those the triple jump work in the alley and Al's toy barn work? The one you yoused to get to clown top boss fight and one of the ducks and chickens? I wanted to try it, but I wanted to make sure it's right.
They are not quite triple jumps. They are double jumps followed by a Buffer Jump which allows you to double jump Mid-Air again as if you touched the ground due to landing on a weird collision that we call "Shadow Boxes".

Hey Solarson! Can you explain to me why my savefile of this game reads "TOY STORY 2:TOK01:00 1 BLOCK USED" What the hell does ":TOK01:00" mean?? And what does "1 BLOCK USED" mean?? For the record i didnt do anything except beat that race. And im playing the ps1 port on ps4.
@@Number1Tailsfan Yeah I already figured it out back then. Pizza Planet Tokens, of which there are 50 (5 per level), so a complete save would say TOK50. The last two digits are simply the number of the savefile. Whenever you make a save or overwrite a save, it's numbered with the lowest number not currently in use.
@@Solarson See it now. Why did you skip over it initially? It's possible to beat rc without the rocket boots, it's just about 10x harder than in level 1 :)
The level design of Toy Story 2 is top tier. Such an underrated design of exploration and mystery.
Even beyond that, the physicality of the level design is great. The fact that they didn’t rely on floating platforms and instead made the levels feel like authentically real places is something I’ve really appreciated about this game in retrospect.
The music in this game is also awesome
"I Hate this Controller" Proceeds to 100% WR
Actually made me die laughing starting out the WR video that way, so perfect haha
most world records are made by PC gamers i always notice that.
I can't tell you how many hundreds of hours me and my sister sunk into this game. Seeing it routed so beautifully is amazing
Same. This game kicked my butt as a kid (never made it out of Alleys and Gullies), so it's extra special to see it shredded.
@@proudtexan8521 we made it out of alley's and gullies, but it took us a LONG time. That level was hard
@@leftysheppey No kidding! Its kind of insane how hard a lot of the '90s Disney games were (cough lion king cough) considering their target audience.

I'm happy people have gathered some interest with the addition of the PSN trophies. 😀
9:10 "This is not good"
*Goes on to produce a new WR* 😜
So many times throughout this run you were like, "dead run" and "prety much dead." Then proceeds to set a new WR! Love it

Aww, this is such a nice comment. I'm happy to have provided a little bit of bonding and good memories. Thanks for sharing!
Love to see a childhood game get the attention it deserves
You know how everyone knows where they were when 9/11 happened? Yeah.
Great run. What a nostalgic and genuinely well made game. Keep it up!
Was just playing this game on my modded PsVita. Absolutely loved it back then and now. GG Man.

Bro, I forgot to mention how clean your run is. Every movement is optimize to a tee.
I grew up playing the PC version and always loved Andy's House track more than the N64 version. Excellent run my dude.
The soundtrack to the airport has no right to be this good 😮

Awesome! Well done! Loved this game and watching your run made me want to try to speed run it!
Congrats for the WR
Another amazing speedrun congratulations this video has a like from me and it deserves way more views 👏
DAMN Al's Penthouse has such great music playing in the background, easily the greatest
Never saw the ending to this game. Glad I did now. Great run homie.
Insane run, funny how once you stopped talking your times started to go down 😂
Had to get serious at the end.
Toy Story 2 on pc was my first ever game. Twenty years later and I'm still nowhere near your level of expertise. Cool dude, cool.
Same bro the first robot boss gave me nightmares as a kid lmao
Great run :D Cant tell how many times I beat this game as a kid, so seeing some skips in this blew my mind (like skipping locking character in place during dialogs) amazing ^^
Bro is a Legend! keep hard work
Duuuuude seeing you do all these moves I thought were possible but could never get right at 7 years old so smoothly is awesome.
This was my first ps1 game.. loved it back then and put so much time in it 😂 great run 👌 ive never seen anyone doing a speedrun
"i hate this controller"
"dead run"
*proceeds to WR*
They did not have to go THAT hard when creating the OST for Al's Penthouse
Amazing, congrats man!
>>10:28 "so this run is like officially dead pretty much"
>>Gets World Record.
Always keep those 'shitty' runs going man.
Always.
Idk how many times ive watched this video before going to sleep
Bro had to backtrack to Andy’s Neighborhood but managed to complete both Alleys and Gullies and Al’s Toy Barn without the required gadgets in one try 😂😭😭
It's faster to do Andy's Neighborhood with the Rocket Boots even if you have to enter it again. :D
I’ve never seen someone complete Bombs Away so fast 😭😭
When Buzz Lightyear turned into John Wick
congrats solarson for the world record!!!! LET'S GOOOOOO!!!
Buzz lightyear in the books
Dude loses .002 seconds on the stairs. “That was ass.” Oooh he’d fucking beat the shit out of me if he saw how long it took me to get up the stairs on my first play through 2 days ago.
The obly level in need of backtracking being level 2 is crazy
YOU CAN SHOOT THE ROBOT WHILE IT'S MOVING????!!!
Amazing!! GG
Trying to do the jump skip to get to the rooftop in Alleys and Ghoullies but just cant get myself to do it.
Ps5 version
It's not possible on PlayStation versions.
Nice run. How can I play this on an imac m1? Is the OpenEmu any good, and how do I install or even run it?
Try downloading the PC version and seeing if that works, if it doesn't then you can always play on N64 Emu which should run perfectly on all devices.
*Link:* docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KtduYDKLRJLKsiHkslPNmHeG-xNHhV72kkLeiAwyWCE
I wonder why the N64 version didn’t have the music in the first level

Best document i've watch
I wouldn't be able to tell you. I can't really give an estimate since there's a lot of practice and testing that's time spent not necessarily doing runs.
The sound of Buzz in PC version and PS1 version differs a lot
GG!
GG! 😋

Its funny you mainly press x too jump and the left analog stick to guide.... I guess it really is all just falling with style.
Freaking awesome!!!
Is it possible to play this in modern pc?
Yes you can download and play for free, check the Speedrun.com page for this game.
@@Solarson isn't the game at internet archive?
GG
Sum of best segments says 45:00.4 so sub 45 possible?
SoB is 44m 55s now.
I wouldn't say possible with current strats, every segment is pretty optimized.
Hey Solarson! Can you explain to me why my savefile of this game reads "TOY STORY 2:TOK01:00 1 BLOCK USED"
What the hell does ":TOK01:00" mean?? And what does "1 BLOCK USED" mean??
For the record i didnt do anything except beat that race. And im playing the ps1 port on ps4.
TOK means token. The left part represents how many tokens you have. I don’t know about the right part, possibly how many hours you spent.
@@Number1Tailsfan

How are you firing so fast on slime time
I use Keyboard for mashing. Index & Middle finger on Spacebar and just alternate between them.
@@Solarson oh i gotcha, i was looking at the controller mapping. dope run btw. i don't speedrun but this game has big nostalgia for me
you didn't show the RC race in level 2
21:50
@@Solarson See it now. Why did you skip over it initially? It's possible to beat rc without the rocket boots, it's just about 10x harder than in level 1 :)
@@cheesepuffs3765 It's faster to enter the level the 2nd time and complete the race with the Rocket Boots.
Why did you unlock the invincibility shield in the first level?
In order to achieve "100%" you are required to collect all the power-ups from Mr. Potato Head.
@@Solarson I see. Thx for the quick response m8
i dont understand how you beat the race on andys neighborhood
I entered the level the 2nd time and I beat it with the Rocket Boots.
My least favourite level is Elevator Hop.
The best level is all the others 😂😂
❤❤❤
Loved this game as a kid
Wayyyyyyy🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😮
