Destruction Derby 2 Comparison

5.1. Missing object/sprites etc. in the Matrox version

Now i will compare which details, are missing in the racing tracks from the Matrox version. The tracks from PS1 and PC version have the same details. In my opinion they removed a few things, to try to improve the performance of the Matrox version. Same here, Left is Retail PC, middle is Matrox, and on the right side is PS1. On the Pine Hills Raceway is the fourth picture the PS1 Rolling Demo. I will enumerate the differences at most places in the tracks, so don't be surprised if the descriptions are repeated.
