spot on doesn't get much clearer than that. The - in the title stand for preview.

oh well, from my point of view those are assumptions...


so, it would still be nice if someone could supply a proof.

i tried to find some differences between the 'preview' and the other versions (acrise-fairlight-hysteric), i only saw similarities :-\

not really, whenever you see the "-" added to a releasename you can be pretty sure that it is a preview. (just like "+" stands for "trainer")

Exactly.

aah, cheers Dave! :) I've been looking for that paper screenshot all over the place!

Just a bit suspicious about the "+M", does that only go for cracks that have for example, a key press to skip to next level or something similar? Just curious.

just as gpz said, 'you can be pretty sure', though i did some binary comparison of the vice-mem-dump and could not see much differences...
so we are still only guessing here (relying on the information the release group gave us) which is not enough for me :-)

Previews don't have to be any different to the released version of a game, sometimes they're review or evaluation copies of the games; in some cases they're flagged as previews because there might be a difference between the crack and the release version.
