A prototype of Red Asphalt for the PlayStation.

Notes

• Interplay FMV has no scene audio, but background music plays which is not heard in the final.
• All cut scenes have some differences, actually.
• Opening FMV uses a short sample of a Peter Gunn rendition instead. When it fades out, the rest of the sequence is silent.
• Different title screen, much simpler; no copyright info. It has "Options" instead of "Load Game" as the third selection.
• Choosing Options still goes to the 1 Player FMV, where it uses a short sample of the Mission Impossible theme and no voice-over narration. After loading, then the options menu opens.
• The options menu is found in the 1 player game selection in both the prototype and final. This is obviously redundant, so they removed it from the main menu in the final.
• Slight difference in the Options menu itself, and fewer available.
• Also once you enter the 1 Player menu (either way), you can't return to the previous menu. It forces you to select a car, character, etc.
• Loading screen bars have different colors. There's also just a square instead of the disc icon.
• Location info is in a different part of the screen
• No voice-overs to accompany the character select screen. Text font for character select is different.
• Choosing a character's story option crashes the game on a black screen.
• The FMV after choosing to start a race uses a sample from the classic Halloween theme
• Miscellaneous Notes:
  • Game is emulatable: Yes (as of April 17, 2021).
  • Game contains dongle protection: No.
  • Game contains debugging symbols: N/A
  • Dump was originally scrambled: No
