Well, you could PM it to people you trust. I can't imagine there's anything bad about it now, it has been over a decade and it was never even released. true. well i don't have the iso yet. haven't got around to it. PM me your email and I'll send you the soundtrack at least, for now. Ok cool, PMed.

So, I finally got my emulator to work. Since it was the only way to get to play the game, without buying a modded system (which are pricey and hard to find).
So, I got it to play directly from the CD, but I can't seem to get ImageBurn to work when trying to make the ISO. It always saves as a BIN file when I don't specify, or a ZIP file when I select "save as ISO", and the ZIP file doesnt seem to have the ISO in it. It's just the files that were on the disc.

At any rate. Since it's an unfinished game, there are of course bugs to be expected.
The few CGIs I've seen are blurry as hell.
The music doesn't play EVER. That's right no BGM. Luckily they sent me the soundtrack too, and I've seen the online clips from PlaystationMuseum, so I know what the soundtrack would be like.
I have a list of all the players and sponsors from the game now.
Also, whenever I try to select one particular character, Hellbound, the game freezes up.
Also, the AI program isn't finished, so the other racers don't race against you, on all the races. They just sit there. For example, on the 'Atlantis II' race, they don't move. But on the 'Syrtis Mars Colony' race, they do race.
The game freezes up, whenever you complete a race, so while Season Mode is selectable, it's not playable.
Also, some of the track descriptions aren't finished or present.
Oh, one funny observation. The programmers hadn't entered in any of the characters Bios, so whenever you click 'BIO', instead of character info, it displays the theme song to 'The Beverly Hillbillies'.
The controls are a bit muddy. But I guess that's because its only 75% done. Tweaks needed to be made that never got made.
I think I've covered everything.
All in all it's a really cool experience. And its cool to see what could have been.

Oh! I forgot to mention something! A neat little design tidbit. Your racer's outfit glows. The little lines on the outfit pulse like a neon sign. I'll post a pic, to better illustrate what I mean.

I was looking at the video footage. It's just that the bikes looked really shiny and I guessed it was PS2 graphics. I dunno. I remember now it was really PSX. Geez I feel dumb. Ah well, it's not like there haven't been poor graphics on PS2 games right? lol

Nice video Aaron. I like the song too.
On another note, I watched the PlayStation Museum video again. (At the moment I cant sleep.)
The graphics are definitely a up for a uncompleted game and well, I like the fact the females look ,well, like females.

The game, I believe, was in mid-beta testing.
All riders and tracks were nearly finished (don't know why Hellbound doesn't work, because he did in the PSM video)
They just had to fix the AI, finish up some of the tracks, add some missing sfx, tweak the engine a bit, and fix the controls. Oh, and do the character bios/endings.
By the way, in your vid, you accidentally put a Mercury pic under Europa at :35.
