Regional Differences

Title Screen

Since the game has a different name depending on the region, all the title screen logos were adjusted accordingly.

Japan	US	Europe

Miscellaneous

• In the European version, the in-game music was replaced with new music by Richard Jacques, though the cutscene music tracks were left intact.
• English subtitles were added to the cutscenes in the US and European versions.
• For unknown reasons, the opening cutscene was removed from the US version. As a result, this also makes the above FMV cutscene cheat inaccessible.
