Cool. I hope you like it. Do you like it? One of the absolute greatest games in the history of mankind.


It is pretty good, I have not gotten that far though because of lack of time. I also played Dark Souls(I say Dark Souls is easier) and I like the pvp in it.

Yeah, lack of time. It's always the lack of time. Same here. I've got so many games waiting on me, over 30 of them just on PS3, and I just don't have the time. And now these PS+ deals. I became a PS+ member yesterday so I could get Darksiders for free, but when will I have time to play it?

Exactly its summer break, when I have the most time. And I still do not have enough time. I am currently going through 10 games and PS plus games as well. I also have PC games to play. But most of all I am replaying one of my favorite games from ps1 era.

Aw man, I entered the thread expecting to read FOLKLORE.

One of the best games this gen and I can't buy because it is out of print.

Wouldn't this just be a copy of the greatest hits program?

Yes, probably even cheaper.


Doesn't Europe already have platinum hits or something? 

Greattest Hits = USA $29.99 games

Platinum = PAL regions and Japan 29.99 games

Platinum Hits = XBOX360 US $29.99 games lol XD

 



With some strike of luck it'll be $14.99 or even $9.99.

Check the interwebs sites.  I'm sure online retailers might have the game in inventory.  I still see it around here in Canada, heck, got mine for 10 bucks.

I wonder how much those games will cost. I also wonder what criteria is used to choose the games. They have a lot of low-selling games, but also have high-selling games like GoW3


It looks like a "pimp our first party releases" collection ala Nintendo Selects.  Which is something they've needed to do for a long time.  Have the Greatest Hits line for  general popular stuff, and then their own special line to promote PlayStation-specific products and build up that brand awareness.

I wonder why Killzone 2 isn't on the list, though.  It seems like they're promoting first party titles that are at least two years old, but Killzone 2 came out before God of War III, Resistance 2, and Heavy Rain.

Also, I would hope SCEA would get in on this, especially with the rumblings of a super slim coming out in a few months.  They need this type of brand promotion in both Europe and North America.

Edit:

And I'm pleasantly surprised to see Heavenly Sword getting re-released.  The game deserved a sequel, imo.  It had great potential for a new IP.  It was just too short and had a terrible framerate.  It was a beautiful game, though, with fun combat and a compellingly told story.



I've played all those games,except for motorstorm.
