James Bond 007 12-8-83

 

This is a very late beta for James Bond and as such has very minor differences.


Prototype Differences
Some colors have minor changes
Vertical blank enabling is missing
The amount of scanlines was changed.  The final has 254 (title screen) or 256 scanlines (game screen), but this prototype has more scanlines (261 or 262) in an attempt to bring it closer to the NTSC standard of 262.  It's unknown why this was changed back for the final version, but it may have been an attempt to speed up the gameplay. 

 

Is that an egg?

 

The sweeping beam from the helicopter is a nice effect

 


Watch out for frog men


 
It looks like he's wearing a disco suit
