Lemmings CDTV / CD32 difference?

Galaxy · 12 October 2004, 14:02

Not a request, but a query - did not really know where to post this.

Does anyone know if there is any difference between Lemmings CDTV and Lemmings CD32. My understanding is that the CD32 version also works on the CDTV so I am guessing that it was a rerelease, or was there anything extra on the CD?

Does the CDTV/CD32 version have 2-player mode?

Since we're talking about Lemmings CDTV/CD32...

If you have an original CD, take a look at the text around the centre. Does it mention that the disc is pressed by PDO? My copy does.

If you try backing up the disc using software like CloneCD etc., does it report any read errors/unreliable sectors?

Certain CDs pressed by PDO in that time frame were defective; something to do with the laquer coating I think, meaning they suffer from "CD rot". That's why I'd like to know whether anyone's original Lemmings CD is going bad.
