I can't remember are the Platinum games are first party games or just games that sold over a million?

1.1 - It's usually first party or exclusive titles....
All of which have sold a million or millions , and are well into profit mode repectively and will push hardware sales.

If they go platinum in the United States this year, it would be MEGATON. :)

Thanks have a bubble.

Heavenly Sword got to a million? I'm surprised and pleased it did. It was a very good game pity it was so short but the quality make up for it.

It's not first party or exclusive, it's any games that have sold over a certain number.

Greatest Hits is the US version, they're called Platinum in PAL regions and The Best in Japan.

And, sonarus, who was on a boycott? I just take my annoyances to the PS Blog now and spam SCEA.

actually the PS2 mark/requirement for Greatest Hits is/was 400k and on the market for 9 months. The PSP is only 250k. I'd be surprised if Sony raised it to 500k atm, but I guess it's possible.

But this begs the question. Where the *bleep* is North Americas Greatest Hits lineup? I figured between April-July we'd hear something. But I really thought they might announce it before E3. Guess at E3 we can expect an announcement for the Greatest Hits lineup in North America. If not then wtf is Sony waiting for!? The PS3 to flatline?

The requirements for a platium title on PS2 were 800K in that Region. No idea what it is for Ps3.

However all the games shown did sell really well in Europe (uncharted and Heavenly Sword saw great sales in Europe, but average elsewhere which is a shame)

Why do they make Platinum title boxart so ugly. It sorta has that "I'm cheap" feeling when looking at it. I guess that's the point. Why not just make it blue or red? Though yellow could work for Haze if ever it does go platinum.

Jesus god that's some ugly box art. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. Let's hope it's not final. Nice to see they're dropping the prices on some great games, though.

Not sure why they make it so fugly, but it seems to apply to all console manufacturers. If it is a budget title, make it look cheap!!!

damn is it the sun I'm looking at? so bright and ugly.

ahh well I think it at least look better than the "red" label for PS2 games. And certainly better than X360's. May sound fanboyish of me but if you take a look yourself you'll see that X360 has the UGLIEST platinum label ever.

That was the Xbox Platinum Hits. PS2 million sellers got a red stripe across the top.

The real question is why Nintendo never drops the price on old games.

Where did yellow come from? OK people for the States we have to let SCEA know that we wont put up with the international color for wuss. Why don't they use platinum for the platinum hits.

I never got Ratchet and Clank nor Heavenly Sword, and I only borrowed Motorstorm from a friend. 3 great games for the price of 1 yay! Sad that Folklore isn't there though.

It looks very real. Right down to the god-awful yellow boxart, it looks pirated dammit!

Ah well, hopefully it'll change before then? And I'll just swap out the cover of my old resistance box for this one and buy it again cheaper ^___^

Heavonly Sword is the only one I missed out on. Shame the cover art for these looks so repulsive. Ah well that should be the least important thing really.

And dont call fake on this just yet. Greatest hits games were always called Platinum here in Europe

Heavenly Sword should do well as a platinum. At $60, the length made it feel a little light. The production values and acting made up for some of it though.
