    Default Check your PSX Demo Discs

    Hey,

    Since I'm on the Playstation kick, I'm trying to throw together a list of demo discs for the system. I'm only counting standalone demos (so nothing already on my main psx list like the Dino Crisis demo packed in with RE3), and not counting prototypes, review copies, kiosk discs or anything like that. Also, NSTC-U games only.

    Here's what I've managed so far:

    "Ape Escape: Demo CD"
    "Burning Road"
    "Colony Wars: Vengeance"
    "Contender"
    "Developer's Demo Disc" (Also called the "Black Ice" CD or the "Hear it Now, Play it Later" CD. Includes the famous T-Rex demo.)
    "Final Fantasy VII: Squaresoft of Playstation Previews"
    "Gran Turismo: Demo Disc"
    "Grind Session"
    "Hot Shots Golf 2: Demo CD"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Pack Vol. 1"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Pack Vol. 2"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 10"

    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 3.5"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 5"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 6"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 7"
    "Interactive CD Sampler Vol. 8"
    "Iron & Blood"
    "Jet Moto 3: Demo Disc"
    "Legend of Kain: Soul Reaver: Demo CD"
    "Legend of Legaia"
    "Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete: Demo CD"
    "Medievil: Demo CD"

    "Megaman Legends 2 Demo"
    "MLB 2001: Demo Disc"
    "Namco Cool Games Free Stuff Demo CD"

    I know all of these were released, though if the title is slightly off, let me know. Any other demos you own that were standalone releases, post here and I'll throw them on the list. I know there's many missing (for instance, I'm pretty sure there's an Interactive Sampler 4 and 9, but haven't seen them).

    What about the stand alone Sonic Adventure 2 Demo that came with some versions of Sonic Adventure? It is a separate disc, so I would say it could count. It includes a semi unfinished first Sonic level with slightly different stuff and music.

    Shoot. Now it's in my head.

    Cool Boarders 4 had a demo disc...though I haven't a clue where it came from. Just digging through this cd holder full of freebies.

    I think that's the "Blue" version; as far as I know, there was a Picks that came when you registered your system, and one that could be bought in stores, so only two. Really somewhat of a shot in the dark, though.

    Let's see... I have

    Interactive CD sampler pack Volume 3
    Mega man Legends 2 Demo Cd
    Playstation Demo Disc Ver. 1.3
    Rascal Demo CD
    Tomba!
    a disc that only says "Brought to you by Toys r us"
    Toys R us Interactive CD Sampler Disc

    Hope this helps! I Haven't used them in a while, so I'm unsure as to what demos are actually on some of them.

    Hopefully this isn't rare (I gave it away a while back to a guy I sold my psx to):

    Activision psx demo

    It had Pitfall 3d on the front and I can remember Pitfall 3D and Nightmare Creatures as playable demos, as well as a few more and some videos I believe. This must have been around 97 when I got it because I think they gave it to my dad for free at an EB when he picked up a used copy of Ghost in the Shell for me.

    Wipeout 3 had a demo

    There was also a series of Kiosk discs (I think these may have been relesed only for the PS One countertop displays) I've got 1.17

    The "kiosk":

    I have a demo disc for Croc 2 - it might have been from Pizza Hut, I'm not sure. And I think there's another one I've got that's not listed there.

    Also, if you or the DP Guide people are interested, I recently picked up a whole stack of old PSX sales promo literature from the old guidebook at work. There's a bunch of release dates, tech specs, game facts and other assorted info. PM me and I'll give you a rundown of what I've got.
    Active systems owned: Wii, X360, PS3
    Inactive systems owned: RCA, INTV2, NES, SMS, Genesis, Lynx, SNES, Saturn, PS1, GBC, DC, PS2, GBA, Xbox, GC, PSP, DS
    Systems wanted: Coleco, 7800, TG16, GG, 3DS, Vita, WiiU

    There's a demo out there for the unreleased PSX game Titan A.E. (well, there were a bunch a couple years ago on eBay, anyhow).

    The upcoming DP Advance Guide will have all of the PSX demo discs in it. Adam has been compiling this list for quite some time. With his additions and Kristine's top-notch research, the PlayStation rarity list is going to totally kick ass!

    Stay tuned.

    There's an early version of the rarity list here by the way:

    Here is a few I did not see on your list, but a couple have been mentioned since. I have included the Sony numbers, which may help identifying similiar named disks.

    Bust A Groove Demo SCUS-94376
    Coolboarders 2001 Demo SCUS-94625
    Crash Bash/Spyro Year of the Dragon Demo SCUS-94654

    Destruction Derby Raw Demo SLUS-90092
    Driver 2 Demo SLUS-90094
    Driver Demo SLUS-90053
    Eidos Demo CD # 3 SLUS-90047
    Interactive CD Sampler # 0 (No name cover or disk) SCUS-94232
    Interactive CD Sampler # 4 SCUS-94418
    Interactive CD Sampler # 9 PBPX-95010

    Toys 'R Us Demo Disc SCUS-94397
    Toys R Us Interactive Demo CD SCUS-94371

    The word Demo was added to the title of many of these to differentiate them from the released game in my database.

    Thanks for the games, guys.

    DP, I didn't know Adam had already put together a Demo disc list, so I'll update this one with what we have so far, and he can merge that with what he has as of now. Also, if you or QoF want the raw Access files of the bigger PSX list to compare with the DP Advance list, throw me a PM or an email and I'll forward those over.
