Destruction Derby 2 Comparison
This is a big comparison about the Destruction Derby 2 versions
It's mainly focussed, to show what is different on the Matrox Mystique version. I will compare the graphic, sound and some technical stuff like the file contents. My opinion is, that there are too less informations on the internet, about the edition which was bundled with the Matrox Mystique video card in 1997. I have made many screenshots and for all tracks a gameplay video. English is not my main language, there could be grammatical mistakes.
I used these versions to compare:
PC Retail Dos Hires (Dosbox) - Draw distance set to maximum
PC Matrox OEM 1.01 (Rig: Matrox Mystique 2MiB, Pentium MMX 233MHz, 64MiB RAM, Win95c)
PS1 NTSC-U (ePSXe 2.05 2x resolution)
PS1 Beta Rolling Demo PAL from Demo One V4 SCED-00457 (ePSXe 2.05 2x resolution)
I think the same Demo is on the Demo One V4 SCED-00456, Autumn / Christmas Releases SCED-00273 and Official UK PlayStation Magazine CD 13 SCED-00365
