Nice one DRX! Someone is going to be pissed - http://www.assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35650
yeah nice one drx guess you were watching my post now i gotta find anotherway to buy my xmas presents ! but i suppose a thanx for this and all your previous releases aswell
Wow, thanks for the Crash Bandicoot release DRX! Although shame for the other guy who was trying to raise money. What's the date of the crash proto? Also, is KH2 final just with debug menu unlocked?
Some backstory on the Crash disc: I purchased the original disc from someone. The seller seems to have unscrupulously made at least one CD-R copy and gave it to someone else and from there it spread to other people. We'll find out yet if that's what the other guy has.
Makes sense. Can you share some info on the KH2 beta? So I'm guessing KH2 (31/01/2006) is from the western localisation? So what's actually different? I'm assuming all the core game elements are the same just with unfinished translations? I noticed the intro still has Japanese audio, although I've never played the original KH2 to compare. This is quite a unique item indeed, not your typical prototype by any means. It's noted on HP that this is with debug, does that imply debug menu? I've tried all the buttons on both P1 and P2 and nothing seems to bring a menu up, is a multitap required to use P3 or P4 to access it?
It should be on controller 2, if its like the Chain of Memories beta I released. Although, I didnt think this one had a debug menu, could be wrong though.
what the hell is your problem ?!? ive had the disk for years ? ok so you may have an origanal but i saw interest and thoght id share ?and ive been nothing but nice to you guys and even thanked you for all youve done
I don't think it does as I can't find a way to access it, not at the begining of the game at least. I've tried all the buttons on P1 and P2, both at title screen, in game, paused and in-game menus, nothing brings it up. It says "with debug" on Hidden Palace so I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt, but right now I'm not seeing it. :/ Assuming the game hasn't got one, I was wondering what a localization would need with a debug menu, considering the game has already been completed and release in Japan. How do you access it in KH1?
Awesome release. I've always loved crash bandicoot on the ps1, I'm glad I can have a alpha/beta copy. I'l be busy with this game for sure.
Yeah, asking $600 for something is so nice of you. Gee, Amazon.com must be the nicest place on the planet. Besides I just added some back story, might be interesting to some. Anyway, I might be wrong on the KH2 proto, I thought it had debug, I might be wrong on that in retrospect. It's been years since I dumped it.
Thanks a lot drx! Curiosity rings tho: what's that bonus dump about? Is it any different from the current Ruby German dump?
I think people might of predicted this. Why did you release it now drx? Why is $600 bad when you wanted $700? I think you stifled a past release before by another person and you seem to do same thing now. Why?
I think it's a matter of two people thinking they had a monopoly. It's now free, so most people have won.
