I have a different version of this.
Mine has the full intro including the "psycho jam jam" bit. Which means it has a complete Operation Spirit.
Mine has come from a Digital Broadcast. It is 2.97 GB in length.

The difference with mine is this -

I received the original disc in a trade years ago. The original had TV Commercials in it.
At the time, I only had a DVD Recorder that I could use to edit out the commercials ( Ididn't have a DVD Burner in my ancient PC !) So, I re-recorded the original onto a DVD-RW Disc at the HQ Setting.Then edited the commercials out & finalized the disc.

So this version comes from my Original DVD-RW Disc that I stumbled across on the weekend. I added a Menu & Chapter Points. No re-encoding from the DVD-RW.

So, after all of that waffle on, there is a SLIGHT drop in Picture Quality.

And before anyone asks, NO I don't have the original disc that had the commercials in it ( the one with the best Quality). I searched all over my house on the weekend & went through approximately 2000 discs & it aint here! I can vaguely remember at the time that the original disc was thrown out as I didn't think I'd ever need it again ( STUPID ME ) & I hated the fact that I had to Fast Forward through commercials, like using a VHS machine, & hated it because it didn't have correct Chapter Points. The Main upgrade for me at the time was that this was in Stereo, where my old Version was in Mono.

I am currently downloading ridleys version of the DVD & will compare it to mine.

Let me know if anyone is interested in my version & I'll work out a way to get it out to everyone.

Screen cap comparisons will be added later today
