A prototype of Twisted Metal 4 for the PlayStation.

Notes

  • No music in the intro sequence
  • No loading screen
  • Title screen/main menu is different. Background zoomed away, and Load Game is Memory Card instead.
  • No indication at the bottom that Triangle goes back in the menus.
  • Options menu has an additional item, "Accept Changes"
  • Slight differences for the vehicle selection, such as the text and the control functions at the bottom.
  • The vehicle Microblast is named Wind-Up here.
  • The order of cycling through the vehicles is different
  • When viewing the character bios, the music doesn't fade out to let the character monologue be heard; so their voices get drowned out by the music that still keeps playing.
  • Choosing a character brings up a crude pop-up message asking to save the current settings.
  • Very different pre-battle loading screen
  • No reverse turbo
  • Vehicle handling/mechanics is very finnicky
  • 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
