Unused Music#

Obfuscated Music#

Stage Start#

The stage start music is always cut off after three seconds, leaving the full track unheard.

Speeder Chase#

The Speeder Chase theme, due to the level typically being over in around a minute, has a section that isn't heard in-game. (The audio has been trimmed to this section.)

  • Lives - Select up to 99 lives.
  • Health - Set and/or refill health.

The game was rereleased by THQ in 1997 to coincide with the theatrical release of the "Special Edition" of the film. This version removes the JVC logo from the game's intro, as the company was no longer involved in publishing duties at that point.
