A prototype of Vigilante 8: Second Offense for the Dreamcast.
==Notes==
* No logos, opening screens, sequences, etc. It goes straight to the main menu
* Main menu itself is different
** No music
** Different button symbols (for all menus)
** Different spinning cursor (tire instead of 2-faced smiley)
** No flip-away transition when making a selection in the menus
* Options menu is also different
** Selections are simple text (not on plates)
** Different background behind the title logo & selections
** Lineage portraits have the central 3 boxes filled with portraits and they're colorful (related to unlocks?)
** "VMU" is "Memory Card", and no "Back Story" selection
** Swapped buttons between going back and main menu (although it is redundant, in general). Navigation buttons for various menus are generally different.
* In 1 Player Mode, Quest and Arcade have swapped positions
** Quest and Survival are not accessible
* Placeholder names, like "Harbor Level" in the stage select. Also, the interstate "V8" sign stays in the same place.
* Lots of differences in the character select: portraits, stats, names. One portrait even somewhat repeats
** Selected characters have no voice clips
* There are no loadings screens; instead, the current screen freezes as the next part of the game is loading (such as entering the gameplay)

* HUD is slightly different
