Sega

it was also released on sega cd. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.112.247.10 (talk) 11:40, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, it was not. You're thinking of another game.--Martin IIIa (talk) 04:16, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

@Martin IIIa:Actually, he's not that far off but at the same time, not quite. There was going to be a Sega CD version of the game but despite being advertised across various magazines, it was never released for unknown reasons... Roberth Martinez (talk) 00:28, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The PS1 version of this title came on 2 CDs. I'm unsure about the PC/Saturn version but the PS1 definitely came on two discs. Also, more discs is not an indicator of better quality. The PC had and always has had access to better video compression algorithms than home consoles. Trmchenry (talk) 18:45, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Revision Info

I believe this article contains incorrect revision info regarding the PlayStation 1 release "The first run of the PlayStation version freezes during startup, making it completely unplayable". Not going to get into an edit war so I'll just stash it here. The GamePro article is most likely misinformed and got the PS1 release confused with mixed up with the bugged release. The known proper/working PS1 disc of Braindead 13, all files are pre-release date, so no revision would be possible without updating these dates. Additionally the mastering code of the redump.org entry ends in a "1", this number would be higher if there was a revision.

Another inaccuracy (which I could be mistaken, but doubt I am) is in regards to the 3DO release: 'a version labeled "Disc 1 (v1.1)"' I believe this incorrect and instead refers to redump.org's former revision tracking system - which used to specify 'v1.1' by default as second known version of a disc when no actual version number is known. So I highly doubt it says this on the disc label anywhere. --2605:E000:141D:52EA:F8D1:8225:7189:B88D (talk) 02:23, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No possibility of the GamePro article being misinformed; they got their info straight from Readysoft and confirmed for themselves that the game crashes as described.

The existence of Brain Dead 13 v1.1 has been confirmed by multiple members of the 3DO fan forums, and while that still leaves us with no usable source, I'm highly skeptical that so many people would go to the trouble of concocting such an uninteresting hoax.
