PS3 Greatest Hits & PS3 Platinum Hits?

[Wreck]

Seems like one or the other is true, or maybe someone doesnt have their titles correctly listed.

More news from Sony's secret, snobby, PAL-only event in Santa Monica: the region's "Platinum" games range for the PS3 have a release date, as well as pricing info. The first batch of Platinum games will be appearing on August 1, and titles mentioned specifically included MotorStorm, Resistance, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed and Virtua Tennis 3 (with Heavenly Sword and Ratchet & Clank surely there as well). As for pricing, they'll be *deep breath* €30/£20/AUD$50/NZD$60.

taken from kotaku ....

but then there is this ...

Confirmed list of PS3 Greatest Hits lineup, each retailing for $29.99: Resistance, Motorstorm, Warhawk, Call of Duty 3, Fight Night, Need for Speed Carbon, Rainbow Six Vegas, Assassin's Creed, Oblivion, and Ninja Gaiden.

So.... They both cant have the same games???

Wonder if one of these are spoofs, or just a mix up of game listings.

I did the conversion rate to US Dollars ... thats like 48.99 ... So , assuming they made it 49.99 or maybe 39.99 to our struggling economy lol. (for the platinum hits as they claim greatest hits will be 29.99)

No they can have the same games its just a diferent system, and that Plat case looks horrible, they need a solid silver case with solid silver strip saying PS3 PLATINUM in black letters

All of those look terrible. HD DVD cases? Just give me the clear cases with a silver "platinum" logo.

Also wondering, which version of Oblivion?

+1
I don't much care for the look of HD-DVD cases for my PS3 games. Keep them clear and just add the Greatest Hits designation to the label.

Don't forget that the dollar is also in the trash compared to other currency right now. That at least partially explains why those prices seem so high to us.
