372633 2005-07-16 05:58:00 Is there a difference in game-play or features between Platinum and non-Platinum Playstation games or no difference at all? Thanks. xmojo1 (4630)
372634 2005-07-16 06:34:00 Platinum just means its re-released as a budget title and that it sold over a certain amount at full price.....which is meant to indicate its a quality or worth owning game.....


Full on marketing BS in other words.

372636 2005-07-16 09:20:00 It means you can justify buying it to the better half.

1. Its way cheaper now!! WE are saving money now buying this game!!

2. Its got to be good they would not sell so many if it was not!

3. I have waited so long for this game to come down in price finely it has!

4. I better buy this its a sale!

5. At this price I can get the game and you can get those shoes/dress/etc that you were wanting to get!Thats fair now, something for both of us.

:D

372637 2005-07-16 09:44:00 I take the stance that no way in hell would I ever let onto Mrs Metla how much I spend or have spent on gaming, or hardware (which is only really at the level it is to play games.

I'll be telling her its been a tight month so shes going to have to stay barefoot for a bit longer yet, and I am thinking to myself...woohoo.....$300 bucks worth of new games, yeehaa.

Then an hour later Im thinkin "damn it, I need to 2Gb of ram for this pos",looks like she wont be getting those shoes anytime soon..


Muhahahahaha.

372638 2005-07-16 10:10:00 I've noticed that some of the "Platinum Edition" re-release games are stripped down versions of the original distributed by a different crowd that the original. Murray P (44)
