- Back to: Sonic R (preview).
General comparisons
The preview has a different title screen, using art that was used fairly extensively in the run-up to release, but is practically missing from the final product. The final game clarifies that 
is a "button". Extra shading was also added to the SONIC text before release.
The menus are in a bare-bones state at this stage. You access different options by pressing buttons on the Saturn controller, as opposed to using the D-Pad to highlight your choice. There is no music on these screens, and details are thin on the ground.
The first five characters can be selected, including Dr. Eggman who in the final needs to be unlocked.
Only three courses are selectable, and each have generic names. Reactive Factory doesn't even get an icon.
Loading screens are different. In this preview, a crude rotating CD-ROM reflecting the title screen is used, rather than Sonic's head.
