Wow, a sample disc of Snatcher, thats pretty special, though if it is as far as 98% complete i could doubt there was much change. Maybe a faw bug fixex to the last version, of some bits of text added, like more files to Jordan, who knows

Hmm, not sure then, perhaps it was at 98% because it needed approval by someone or something, to make it up to standards, or a slight change in timing for music or speach, im not sure, just thinking of random things it could be, or maybe the other 2% counts for the packaging, though i doubt it

I doubt there's really any siginificant difference other than few minor bugs here and there in the released version. The code no. (FR002) indicates that this was Konami's second Sega CD production (I'm guessing Lethal Enforcers was FR001) if anyone cares.

Could we get an ISO/MP3 dump of the disc? I'd play it through and see if there are any differences, and I'm sure many other Snatcher fans would be interested in seeing this barely incomplete version of the game.

That's a European Review Copy. What Snatcher has is likely a copy that was sent around Konami to make sure everything was ready for release.
