1997 Windy Valley Renders#

Two very early renders of Windy Valley (named TEST00 and TEST01) were included on various internal discs, used to verify the functionality of GD-ROMs. One such disc has timestamps of December 9, 1997 for these images.

Bug Database#

Please elaborate.
Having more detail is always a good thing.
Specifically: Where is this? What's the source on this document?

The "Sonic Adventure Bug Database" is a collection of reports made by game testers between December 10, 1998 and August 12, 1999. Most the entries only report spelling problems and "suggestions" from the testers (e.g. "Twinkle Circuit should support multiplayer"), but a number also detail gameplay problems. Due to the date of some of these reports, there was probably not enough time left in development to correct these issues.

Early Music#

Open Your Heart#

During a March 2, 2004 "Radio DC" broadcast, an early demo of Open Your Heart was shown off publicly with lyrics completely different from the final version, and the lead singer suspected to be Kenichi Tokoi. Unfortunately, the full version has never been released publicly, and the second half of the song is drowned out by Jun Senoue and Yoshiko Takeda.

Curiously, some of the lyrics at 1:08 appear to be identical to those heard in the "Transmutator vs. Razed in Black" remix included in the Sonic Adventure Remix album.

"Lazy Days" -Livin' in Paradise- (Big's Theme)#

Demo	Final	Description
