I Prefer the Genesis version because the endings are more optimistic. In the Mega CD version, only Xaviar and Raven get good endings. I think all 9 of them deserve another chance.

Yea that is, I'd still would like the artwork of those if possible since I lost my book. Β I do remember seeing them in color somewhere as well. Β Maybe it was for the canned 3rd game or something.Β

Oh, there were also drawings of DEC and the Eternal in all of his forms (which are in the CftDS manual, albeit sadly, uncolored...) Mike might have them still but he'll probably have to look for them in an old box or something

oh and there's also these as well: scontent-a-atl.xx.fbcdn.net/hp⦠Midnight's Sega CD stage concept (probably was planned for the original EC Since Blast and Chin Wo were scrapped characters from said game. So was Dawson as well.)
And then there's this document:
scontent-b-atl.xx.fbcdn.net/hp⦠I'll keep you up to date as he starts posting more stuff.

That's also a interesting read on Midknight's stage about his lab. I've never noticed the sprinklers because they kinda drip and not spray. Also loved the idea that he wanted the champions to look "wet" from the water. So this document was made in 1993, is this for CftDS or was it for the 1st EC. I never understood why Midknight's stage was set in Viet Cong, yes, that is where the US government used his virus but he wasn't there.....unless as a vampire he wanted to see "the damage" his virus has done. Also in the document it said they wanted the lab to look like right after the accident. So I guess in this story he turned into a vampire from an explosion from inside his lab and not the incident with the agents at London's airport. Β

As I stated in a post above, Chin Wo and Blast were actually slated for the first EC. In fact, there was an image of a title screen (as in an old jpeg screenshot one of the devs took. Don't remember the site and don't really wanna dig through sega 16's boards to find it. There was also a sketch of the same title screen layout. It's the same as the final version's except Chin Wo and Blast are included. I asked Mike why Chin Wo and Blast were removed. He told me that there wasn't enough room.
There probably was enough room, however, in terms of development, EC was already an expensive game since it was a 3 MB cartridge. 4 MB Genesis/Mega Drive games are few and far between because of the costs associated with them. (it gets even worse if the game had a save battery. That's why Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles were split into two games. thankfully EC doesn't have a save battery but it still would have been costly to do 4MB.)
Chances are the Vietnam and China levels were leftovers of Blast and Chin Wo as they get these two stages in the Sega CD version while Jetta and MidKnight both get new ones.
Dawson was also planned for the first EC but I don't think he made it past conceptual stages unlike Blast and Chin Wo, who apparently did if that title screen image is legit and not a developer mock up. I asked Mike about the image's authenticity and he said if it's from the developer it was from, it's probably legit.
There was also the concept for senator's attacks. I believe the interview I did with mike a couple of years ago and posted on the fan page more or less covers that though so I won't go into it.
Hope this answers some of your questions.Β

Well most places won't continue certain games like the one I used to play on the 64. Conker. All they did was just remake it for the original xbox.
