Besides, in seven months time now, I'm going to be a dad. Life is moving on for me.

no one from Sonic Retro post here. Here's video found by Meat Miracle.

Bumping with beta footage.


From 10:16. Different object placement and some minor stuff, character selection has different portraits.

From 4:00. Everything is different. SOR2 music, Gorilla-like Zan, crap sound effects, Victy is called KAN, different enemy placements, and so on.

poor Kan that don't have lifebar icon... and awesome beta Zan with Max's icon on lifebar. And WTF at crate in tunnel subway and... and... sunset!!!!

This....this is awesome!!!
And damn, now that we're seeing that beta sunset in motion, it looked much better than the final one, why did they change it? <_<'

The trolls were still the ones from SOR2 and the bulldozer didn't have colission only when it hit.

[Saven]

Zan had a Max portrait in-game too.

I noticed that one of SOR2's unused voices "OH!" was used during the Kusanagi fight where you usually fight Yamato at.

Very cool stuff, thanks for posting Rabbit.

Now I can kinda see why they overhauled Zan. Some of his animations were just odd, though I still prefer the beta design over the current one.

Really cool stuff, nice find joy.

Can some1 translate & transcribe the Japanese voiceover in both vids into English text plz?

Not just the SOR stuff, I mean teh whole of both vids translated word-4-word, & can u post it as 1 long unbroken paragraph in this color plz, thx!











(PS: Nice find - sunset looks pretty good there, bonus audio points for Spin On The Bridge glitchin' up at the bulldozer as well!)

[MattD]

Great find, Joy

Beta Zan FTW!

[JoyJoyfulRabbit]

Heehee thanks.

This Video with Beta Zan, "beta" Blaze has the upskirt sprite in this footage. I wonder why they changed to final... and "Genin" is the name for 3 ninjas... >_>

Also Shiva killed by Blaze because there's no Rocket appeared to help him escape. And video with beta BKIII titlescreen with lightning sprites, is that a broken Plank on floor in harbour area? O_o *poke*

cool sprites, right? .

one question: there are other missing sprites, or now we have all their sprites beetwhen the shots and the videos that we have? or maybe we miss the jump + down attack?

greetings

pd: i found this by true luck this morning. maybe someone has to search more in that cool site with this old french magazines, just in the case there are more surprises there...

[Iceweb38]

Very cool! Great job Cabo-Hicks!

Console+ you say? the oldest issue I have is from 1997 so I'm afraid I cannot help

[Saven]

Cool, nice find.

[badjab]

Good find. I think that's actually his running attack. Though it does look like it was heavily based on Max's fwd special. I still think we might be missing a few things, if not just other frames of certain animations.

It is his running attack. I wonder why beta Zan player in video never used his move.. =\
