Semi off topic: What does a game need to qualify for Greatest Hits? I know Oblivion's on the list with around 700k sales, but Uncharted has 1.86 million sales and is not on the list. Does it need to have been out for a certain amount of time? (It's been more than a year, hasn't it?)

EDIT: Sigma has 370k sales. What is it doing on Greatest Hits?

 

Just a quick question, are you refering to the Greatest hits/Platinum re-releases? if so, Uncharted is definately on it, i bought it a few weeks ago.

If you didn't mean that sorry, i misunderstood your question....

Is Uncharted on it? I'm not sure, I didn't pay much attention when I recently went to buy Sigma (which was Greatest Hits).

But this Wikipedia article seems to suggest that Uncharted is not on Greatest Hits. Strange.

 

Uncharted is Greatest Hits (Platinum) in Europe, not in the US though. Here is the list for Europe.  As for when games become Greatest Hits.  I believe for the PS2 it was 9 months and 400k sold.  But honestly it is pretty much whenever Sony decides they will make more from dropping the price than keeping it at full price.  So if a game keeps selling well after release, it is less likely to get a greatest hits release immediately.
