Differences in BONK III?
« on: December 29, 2011, 03:27:28 PM »
Is there any real differences between the Hu Card and CD versions of Bonk III other than the redbook music?

There is more... try searching the forums... I believe the CD has fewer frames of animation for some of the sprites?

I don't own the CD, either.

Bonk III CD is missing a huge amount of sprite animation and artwork, but no one has gone through to carefully pick out everything that was cut from the HuCard version. The CD version has a different credits and maybe the ending. The CD game appears to be a sloppy port by TTi and not Hudson/Red.

Thats the best deal they got right now, pretty ridiculous. Better off just burning the iso to a cd.

I picked up my Bonk 3 Huey for $17 used at Video Replay. It ain't there anymore now but I was 16 and in the glass case he had a stack of Hu-cards I asked to see them and BAM BONK 3. Fast forward a few years and Toys-r-us I think had Duo games on sale I snagged Bonk 3CD for $30 I think. Sucks they go for so much now a days.

My old source deffinitly makes me believe it was by Hudson, not TTI.  It was actually a gift to TTI, they didn't have to pay a dime for it.  I think that's why it's quick & dirty.  Though, I do wonder, do we know for sure that all the frames taken out was due to lack of memory, or were the coders just lazy?

Anyways, for the CD version, there are a few more layers of paralax.  :D

No, but seriously, the CD version doesn't have the same title screen song.  Instead, it kind of rehashes the ending credits theme. 

I've often thought of recomposing the music myself, to give the songs a more Bonk 1/2 feel & sound.  I just haven't had any time.  Maybe someday I will, or atleast something Bonk related.
