User:GyroMan/judge dredd prototype

An interesting thing about this prototype right off the bat is that the header date is June 1993, a full two years before the game would eventually release in 1995! Weird publishing setback or unupdated header? You decide. Despite its (assumedly) early date, the game is actually mostly complete.

Intro

Title Order

The order of the credit and trademark screens at the beginning is different.

Prototype	Final
Sega Logo -> Acclaim Logo -> Probe Logo -> Trademark Screen -> Intro Text	Sega Logo -> Trademark Screen -> Acclaim Logo -> Probe Logo -> Intro Text

Additionally, in the prototype, the music doesn't start until the intro text. In the final game, it begins as early as the trademark screen.

Intro Text

The intro text is a little sloppier in the prototype.

Prototype

Final

IN THE THIRD MILLENIUM, THE WORLD CHANGED. CLIMATE, NATIONS, ALL WERE IN UPHEAVEL. HUMANITY ITSELF TURNED AS VIOLENT AS THE PLANET. CIVILIZATION THREATENED TO COLLAPSE. AND THEN.... A SOLUTION WAS FOUND. THE CRUMBLING, LEGAL SYSTEM WAS MERGED WITH THE OVERBURDENED POLICE, CREATING A POWERFUL AND EFFICIENT HYBRID. THESE NEW GUARDIANS OF SOCIETY HAD THE POWER TO DISPENSE BOTH JUSTICE AND PUNISHMENT. THEY WERE POLICE, JURY, AND EXECUTIONER, ALL IN ONE. THEY WERE... THE JUDGES.

To do: pictures of the margins

The margins are also wider in the final game.
