Interesting story that may not mean anything to y'all but I feel I should tell it anyways.

For many years of playing my original retail copy of Outlaws on older systems, whenever the first cutscene (not the intro one, the one before the first level where the wife gets murdered and the child kidnapped), the cutscene would stop just as the two bad guys approached the house while the girl was on her swing. I had always thought that was normal for some reason, and yet I never questioned why or how Marshall knew of his wife's murder and daughter's kidnapping before returning home.

So I get the GOG.com version and play it and see that the cutscene goes for hell of a lot longer, and we see that the event happens overnight and everything. I was watching this cutscene in shock and awe and thinking to myself, "All these years, I've missed this and never even realized that."

Just wondering, did the same thing happen to y'all when y'all played the original retail version on older PC's?

Yes! My original copy (bought in a store in the Netherlands, but could have been an import) had the same problem, but I did know it wasn't how it was supposed to be at the time, as I had already seen the full cutscene on a demo CD that came with TIE Fighter Collector's CD-ROM :) I found a re-release version a couple of months later (which included the extra missions) that had the issue corrected*.

*could be that I have these mixed up, and the re-release version was actually the first one I bought, so if anyone knows which version(s) had the problem, please share :)

Mine had the same problem! I had no idea about the whole other half of that intro. Blows my mind learning that all these years later.

Yes!
My CD copy is crippled exactly the same way!

I had to resort to, let say, "creative means" in order to get full intro... I heavily suspect, that this has something to do with a censorship, as the opening scenes are not exactly "kid friendly" (not that I care, this game is not exactly suitable for small kids beacuase of other things involved).
