So, for over ten years now I've been searching for a particular ps1 demo disc. I've tried my best google-fu and looked up the demo disc list on game-rave but no luck. The database hasn't been much help either. 1 because I don't know the exact date, just that it was before 2000, and 2 not all demo entries list the games that were on it. So I humbly ask you guys for any leads on it. Here's a list of what I remember was on it:

Medievil
A bust-a-move game
Wild 9
Crash warped
A trailer for a rugrats game(?)

If anyone can narrow it down or link me to some good resources that would be great Smiley

EDIT: Thanks to addicted! I'm 90% sure that's the one I had for a few days back when I was a small lad. Brave Fencer was that one game I played but was never sure which game it was. The menu music also rings a bell. Also, this thread is open for anyone looking to pinpoint a demo disc now. Thanks again.  Grin

Hmm.  Is there anything physical that you remember about the disc, such as the color or any art?  Do you remember if the disc was a system pack-in disc, a retail demo disc (such as a Jampack or something you could get from a store), a OPM demo disc, or maybe a Playstation Underground set of discs?  Also, what did the selection screen look like?  Was is a wall tiles that showed the content, or was it a single "one-at-a-time" demo/video selection?


EDIT:  I might be too late.  It looks like Addicted may have gotten it.

Just to hijack this thread, anyone know which demo disc(s) had the fish on the selection menu? I have a co-worker who used to work on these demos, and the fish one was something he was looking to re-acquire again since it was one of his best accomplishments from that time.

@Shadow: Are you talking about the Manta Ray tech demo or something different?

Presumably something different, but I'll show that to him. I think it was an OPM Demo Disc in the 20s range. The fish would school together and swim around the menu.

@Shadow: That puts it from May to Dec 1999. I may have to bring my PS1 out of retirement to find this...

He said it may have been later than that (date), but not sure.

@Shadow: Glad I could help. It's amazing how little information there is on the demo discs.
