 Trivia
  • There is a hidden code for an ID4 video by on the rim of the disc. At the main menu you type Triangle - Square - Triangle.
     
  • Despite the missing 3.5 sticker, the disc itself does read as 3.5 in the opening copyright section.
     
  • Tap the shoulder buttons on each video preview. If you see symbols, type that symbol in on that icon. You will uncover, hidden codes, footage, ads, etc.
     
  • There are three versions of this demo. See variants below.
     
  • Packed in with the PlayStation System.
     
  • The 2xtreme Demo will sometimes crash the system when allowed to play through attraction mode.
     
  • This was one of the first and only demo discs to cause myself and Paul over at Lockshaw's Demos to lose our minds; it's a variant disguised as the original release. The PSRM was the final clue to the whole puzzle. 
     
Variants
There are two variants to this disc, and truth be told, these are the most annoying demo disc variants, ever.
All three have identical looking sleeves, minus the sticker on the 2nd of the 3 sleeves. Sleeves 2 and 3 are
the exact same sans the sticker. 2 and 3's discs are the same looking except for the PSRM numbers.
Note that despite the "Updated Version's" lack of a sticker, it is indeed a 3.5 disc.  

Interactive CD Sampler Volume 3 "Original Version" - SCUS-94959 / PSRM 004920 (Tunnel B1 and King of Fighters rather than NFL GD 97 or RC))

Interactive CD Sampler Volume 3.5 "With Sticker Version" - SCUS-94966 / PSRM 005790 (NFL GameDay 97 is playable, rather than a video)
Greatest Hits
This game was never released as a Greatest Hits.
