Notes

  • Compiled almost a month before the US build (the first final retail build).
  • Demo build.
  • Opening FMV is missing, however all the company logos are present.
  • Doesn't load into a title screen, goes right to the main menu instead. Likewise, you cannot select a profile like in the final game.
  • Only Crash Nav is selectable from the main menu. All other options are greyed out and cannot be selected.
  • The "Xbox Live" option as seen in the final build is known as "Online" in this build.

  • Game lacks the EA "Trax" feature.
  • Only USA is a selectable region.
  • Selecting a location is different in this build. You select the actual event that is located within each region. In the final, you select the region on the map and then select the event.
  • Only certain types of events are accessible in certain locations for this demo.
  • You cannot view Driver Details in this build while on the main menu.
