Alien Breed
Why on HOL are Alien Breed and Alien Breed Story listed separately when they came together?
Alien Breed should be listed as 3 disks surely? The same thing goes for Shadow of the Beast 3, why isn't it listed as 3 disks (2 game disks + Intro Disk)? |

I thought that the Alien Breed story disk was released into the public domain, rather than being released with the game...
Beast 3 - it's listed as two disks, because the crack is two disks and much of the info came from crack versions in the first place. Was the original definitely three disks then? |

The crackers simply removed the intro disks to save space...
They were possibly "released" later on. For Beast 3 check caps#16. For AB KG just dumped the original. All of them came with an intro disk. |

Yeah they both came as 3 disk behemoths.
I had both so I should know! I didn't realise the Alien Breed original was so un-owned! |

Just digging through some really old posts...
I noticed this hadn't changed at all? Alien Breed came in a box with 3 disks just like Shadow of the Beast 3 did, yet in HOL Alien Breed and it's intro are seperated, whereas SOTB3 isn't.
