3DO Betas/Previews/Pre-Releases
Hello all,
I thought I would share some photos of some of my beta/pre-release/preview 3DO titles. I've only tried out Need for Speed, and it has a couple of differences that I noticed (I only played a couple of minutes). The opponent videos are not available (maybe this should be considered a positive feature ), and some other options for the cars don't seem to be included. A couple of the cars seem to handle a little differently as well. I have many many many hours on the released NFS to compare the handling with, and it seems a little tighter (believe it or not) on the pre-release version I have. Go figure. On Deathkeep, the controls for the game are mapped to different buttons.
I play them on this:
If the pictures are too big I'll edit them.

DAMN! I say again; DAMN! You crazy Bastard! That is awesome! I know for sure I wish I had that Deathkeep disc. That would be awesome as i collect Dungeins & Dragons 2nd edition stuff! Other stuff is "sweet like candy" as well!
This is a stick up! Put all of your 3DO games in the bag and nobody gets hurt!

does your testing station have a switch on it, for encrypted and un-encrypted games?
i almost bought one on ebay long ago but then i thought why? as im not gonna buy stuff that works on it
Zangardo had 2 Captian Quazar betas, Save Yourself (i think that was the name) and probably 10 others i cant remember
Ex-3DO collector extraordinaire , but i still have my collection
Villagephotos is dead, need to find my old pics and find another host

Yep, it has the Encrypted/Unencrypted toggle switch on the back. Did that Zangardo fellow end up selling off his entire collection a little while back, or did he just up and disappear without a trace? I'm pretty sure I remember him from another forum.
Heh, as long as you don't expect too muchT2KFreeker wrote: 3DOSanctuary.com, huh? I'll have to check that out here soon as well.
I'm just messing around with the site right now. Actually, it is extremely pathetic at this point. I have uploaded all of one image. Eventually, I will get rid of the template page and give it a real go. It will probably wait until I get most of my collection photographed though.
he used to post at assembler and FreeDO, from what i saw he sold off some of his bigger priced items then disappeared, but i dont think he sold everything off, he wouldnt tell me why he was selling the stuff off either.bitrate wrote:
