Let's keep you guys busy for a bit. I think I know the answer to the question, but let's see what you come up with.

A Robocop technical demo was created for the PS1 (http://playstationmuseum.com/Games/BETA/BTA-074.htm). Developers don't usually build tech demos of trademarked characters unless asked to. What publisher was shopping around Robocop for the PS1?

To help you along, this tech demo was created April 1997.

My guess: demo was created by/for Orion Interactive, and was forgotten about when MGM acquired Orion three months later.

I'll assume the pic of the cover art is fake, considering it's rated as "T". Out of curiosity, where'd it come from?

The cover was an artist's concept. Don't know where the art actually came from actually. The T should have been NR though I agree.

BTW, someone told me that Titus was working on a PS1 Robocop which I believed was to be the publisher, but I haven't found any verification anywhere. Didn't Titus make the PS2 version?
