 * Lighting is handled differently; there seems to be a higher gamma to the graphical output.
 * Karen in Training is using the dark-haired female cop model, probably a result of Rockstar's efforts to conserve resources due to limited memory.
-* Some of Shinatama's un-subtitled instructions in the PC version of Training are subtitled on PS2, but not all. Some of these PS2 subtitles are abbreviated transcriptions:
+* Some of Shinatama's un-subtitled instructions in the PC version of Training are subtitled on PS2, but not all. Some of these PS2-only subtitles are abbreviated transcriptions, as seen when we compare SNDD and SUBT:
-** SNDD: "00_01_76 Be careful, Konoko! Some attacks are so powerful that they can stagger you even if you block them. Some super moves are so strong they can't be blocked at all!"

+** SNDDs 00_01_86 and 00_01_88:
-* Instead of using "Trailer" and "Farewell" for the credits, the PS2 credits have completely different music. This is probably because [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od1ReWIxduo the PC credits sequence] is 171 seconds long (that is, the textual credits, not the whole outro), but [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yhqg_MF6dM8 the NTSC version] of the PS2 credits is 156 seconds and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YX0OGl2-WLA the PAL version] is 204 seconds. (The differing frame rate of PAL's 25 fps vs. NTSC's 30 fps cannot account for this 48-second time difference, and the credits themselves are identical; the PAL version simply scrolls the credits 30% slower for some reason.) To cover these credit sequences of differing length, a new backing track with a house beat was composed by Rockstar Canada staff. The NTSC version's music fades out arbitrarily as the credits end, whereas the track behind the longer PAL version continues on an extended (and eyebrow-raising) riff on female pain sounds from the game and ends with an actual coda.
+::: "Perfect!"
-* The text of the PS2 credits is somewhat different; see [[Quotes/Credits#PS2_outro_differences|HERE]] for details.
+::: "Let's try firing at some moving targets. Walk over to the table on the right. See the weapon lying there? That's a plasma rifle. Pick it up."
