Extreme 500

Extreme 500 is a racing title developed by Ascaron Entertainment and published by THQ for PAL territories, sitting within THQ’s broader late nineties racing catalogue.

This is the German Original pressing, dated 15 March 2000, shipping as a single-disc release in a Full Jewel PAL case. The disc supports English and German on a bilingual master, the same master used across the wider pan-European pressing. Disc serial SLES-02220 is shared between the German pressing and the multi-territory UK/Italy/Spain/Netherlands variant, with EAN barcode 4005209037211 as the principal German-specific cataloguing identifier. The 4005209 EAN prefix is consistent with German-distribution barcoding of the period and is therefore the primary regional identifier for separating this pressing from its multi-territory sibling. A standard pickup for German PAL collectors documenting THQ’s racing output.
