Hidden Credits

Enter the second level of Ultimate Doom (Map 2: Plant), then go to the password screen and enter any password starting with "jb4jh" or "lyjvm" (the rest of the password can be filled with any characters). When the "INVALID PASSWORD" error pops up, press Start to bring a Special Thanks screen by the developers (each of the two passwords has a different screen).

Unused Map Data

  • All of the level data for the colored lighting and translucency used in the PlayStation version is present.

Regional Differences

  • The US release lacks support for the Taisen Cable, and multiplayer as a result. Oddly, the box for the US version claims two-player linkup support, while the box for the European release claims to be single-player only.
  • The Japanese version slightly reorders the music tracks on the disc to more closely match the track order of the PlayStation version.
