I love small "sets" like these. I only have that promo disc myself, which was sent to me a few weeks before launch. Didn't know it was of a lower version number than what's featured on the manufactured retail discs, though.
Interesting. You should also check if it has the debug menu on by default. I don't have a clue how people enabled it on retail versions since I don't have a hacked PS3.
Didn't see anything special when I was doing my playthrough, so doubt it's something that's activated on those regular promo discs meant for retail systems. The way the debug menu might've been activated on hacked retail units is probably just a simple flag that needs to be activated/set to true in a config file of sorts on the disc (In a lot of games it really is that simple)
I was under the impression that it was a dev ps3 that got the debug menu going on it? Besides, considering the statement Sony made regarding the nudity thing on a retail unit was a bit questionable: Source: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/10/22/sony-objects-to-ellen-page-nudity-in-beyond-two-souls-leak
nah,i dont think there is any debug on it...It seems to be the same version as the final,just with some disabld menu options.As far as i played the game,i havent found any ingame differences.If I find anything,i let you guys know
I just want to say wow. Beyond: Two Souls is an amazing game. I was originally supposed to buy some stuff myself for this game which were: Beyond: Two Souls E3 Demo Beyond: Two Souls Preview Code Beyond: Two Souls Review Code Beyond: Two Souls Promo (Final) I ended up missing out on the E3 demo due to a major mis-communication. Yet gutted, I already know the E3 Demo doesn't have any differences as I looked on YouTube so I don't think I'm missing out on much *cough* don't tell me i missed out >.< because I'm super gutted *cough*. Anyhow, I believe that if the Debug menus are existent in the Final Game (disabled in the patch v2 but can be re-enabled i bet) there's a solid chance they were existent in the E3/Preview/Review builds just disabled. The debug menus consist of various options, I believe there is another menu which is disabled. One of my favorite options was the one that gives the ability to freely move the camera around. You get to see perfect titties in them shower scenes if you're a bit of a perv like me. My second favorite is the screenshot ability given, I took some nice screenshots: Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Picture 4 Enabling the debug menu is simple, you have to decrypt one of the files and then you change one of the lines. L3 enables the debug menu whilst L1/R1 cycles through the sub-menus. I was planning on making a thread dedicated to enabling debug menus in games which have them locked/disabled what'd ya think? If anyone needs help message me! Uff.... an Edit for Jodie: I LOVE JODIE <3!!!!!!!
yeah,sounds nice...i really would like to enable the debug of the preview since its version 1.00 i guess i have to edit the files an burn them on a blue ray to run it on the ps3 test or?
