TheThere followingare isseveral a list of changesdifference between the Playstation and PC versions of [[Croc 2]] releases.
 
=== Between the PAL and the NTSC-U versions of Croc 2 ===
Several changes occurred. Some good, others bad.
* In the NTSC-U version, jellies have been replaced with Gummi Savers, and so has [[Swap Meet Pete]]'s dialogue about them.
* The language select for the NTSC-U PC version has been removed for unknown reasons. It remains in the game files, which makes it even stranger since it was specifically removed.
 
=== Between the Playstation and PC versions of [[Croc 2]]. ===
* [[Croc]]'s head is now smoothed with spherical eyes. Also applies to [[Croc's Family|Croc's family]]
** Unfortunately inCroc's thefamily PCnow versionlooks extremely odd, and almost identical to Croc. His father's moustache wasn't adjusted to his new head model, his mother lacksdoesn't herhave eyelashes., Herand dialoguehis iconyounger stillbrother showsdoesn't shehave hashis eyelasheslarger howevereyes.
* Better graphics and higher draw distance. Plus the PC version doesn't suffer from the PSX version's low draw distance and jagged polygons which the PlayStation was known for. The game by standard puts a smoothing filter on all textures, but it is possible to disable it. The smoothing filter ruins some 2D sprites in the game by giving them an unnatural line.
* Better graphics. (All textures are smoothed and some are recolored).
* TheUnlike most PC version is capped at a resolutiongames of 800x600the nativelyera, (soespecially playingchildren's ongames, aCroc windows 98). It2 is compatible with all modern day graphics cards, so all resolutions are non-nativelypossible.
* Sailor Village was modified.
** The "Welcome to Oki-Doki" sign was reversed and now "Bye-Bye!" is visible.
** In the PC version, going North from the beach has you eventually walk on the first bridge. In the Playstation version you walk into a wall.
* Unfortunately, the game removes a song in Rescue the Ice-trapped Gobbos level. The song (popularly called "Save the Ice Trapped Gobbos 2") It was cut presumably to save space on the disc, as the size limit of the PC version was nearly met.
* Croc's kart was recolored slightly and lacks the back number stamp. The front number stamp was kept however, and this change was made to presumably differentiate Croc's kart with the Dantini's karts.
* Unfortunately removes the back number stamp on Croc's kart.
* Unfortunately removes cheats in the PC version presumably to preserve space.
* Replaces the lower quality blue Swap Meet Pete Card in exchange for a higher quality Purple card.
* The music, sound effects, and ambiance has been compressed slightly to conserve space. Both versions of Croc 2 have Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound, unlike the first game. As such, the PlaystationPlayStation version has better audio.
* In the PC version, the "add nine heart pots" cheat is non-functional as result of a glitch. Entering the glitch will procure no sound, but the game does recognize if the cheat was entered on a software level.[[Category:Version Differences]]
 
Bottom line is the Playstation version has worse, but brighter and more colorful graphics with significantly better audio, while the PC version removes some things (like the number stamp on Croc's kart and Croc's mother's eyelashes), changes some things (like sailor village), and has slightly worse audio in exchange for better graphics and configuration.[[Category:Version Differences]]
