European Covers versus USA Covers

Anything relating to CD-i can be discussed in this forum. From the multiple hardware iterations of the system to the sofware including games, reference, music and Video CDs. Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

European Covers versus USA Covers

Post by Bas » Sat Dec 17, 2005 9:53 pm

First of all, the quality of some pics is hilarious. But that shows not all versions of cd-i covers are available on the net, which is a shame. If anyone can help with some better quality pics of these, let me know!

I think it's remarkable the earlier USA releases got a different cd-i cover. Compare these ones and tell me which one do you prefer?

For The Apprentice I prefer the European covers, whilst with Space Ace the USA revision is much better :D

As for the others they are all quite similar. Given time they will all be uploaded to the unique game pages on Black Moon although my main focus are the European issues at the moment.

do you have this USA Mega Maze Devin, if yes, do you know what's on the sticker on the bottom right of it?

Yes I do, it was a review quote from some magazine. Think it was Game Informer although i'd have to check!
