    didnt know it wasnt Platinum in other countries yet,i saw it for sale as Platinum range last week in HMV,costing £24.99...which really,isn't that great a price seen as though its coming up to a year now and you can get the original version for prolly less(not pre-owned,just shops selling it for less)...they really know how to fleece us with those platinum ranges


    (on another note i just bought Assassins creed in the Classics range for £14..but that is a bit older than MGS4)

    @metallicorphan: On yet another note, I picked up a copy of Heavenly Sword in Zavvi for £7.50. Not a game that was ever really on my get list, but for £7.50 I was definitely willing to give it a home!

    Do NOT buy Army of Two for $30. I'll sell you my copy for the cost of shipping.


    p.s: I take no credit for the mediocrity of the game. Thank EA for that.

    Yay! A demo is now only $30 ... GT fans rejoice!


    On a more serious note, I might now pick up Ratchet and Clank ... and I'm sure my nephew will get MGS4, so this will definitely spur some sales.

    Wasn't the game $40 new when it released some time ago? The hell? I don't care if it's all super-realistic and shiny looking- "Burnout" has 10x as much content and fun and costs a whole Hamilton less.

    Damn it! I add my voice to those waiting for Uncharted to be on the cheap. I refuse to pay almost full price for a game that came out like 2 years ago, no matter how good people say it is.

    Then again, my opinion is made void by the fact that I picked it up at a pawn shop for $20.

    What the hell do they have against Uncharted? Why isn't that a Greatest Hit yet? That was damn near a launch title.

    @Mister Jack contains Potassium Benzoate (That's Bad): It has to do with making money. If Uncharted is still selling a decent amount at its current price point then they won't lower the price and give it Plat Hit status.

    @Southrncomfortjm: By that same logic though, I'd imagine MGS4 would probably still be selling pretty well to new PS3 owners. Seems a little early for a cut of that magnitude.

    But this MGS4 one also is plastered with a whole bunch of other little shitty logos.

All the trolls are in school, and they're apparently in a biology lab because they don't have internet access which they would if they were in any other class ("You better be doing your crunches and pushups at that computer, Billy, or no recess for you." And billy replies "I'ma chargin my lazur." to which the teacher says "I'ma chargin my red 'F' making pen."... ok, so I just got up, my brain's not in full operation yet)

    They should pack in trophies with this. It'd be hilarious to see how many people would double dip to the GH version just to get trophies in the game.

    This game deserves all the praise possible in the world and more.


    Also, I kind of like the fact that the Platinum series is yellow. It looks different and unique. The regular PS3 games could do with a little colour like that. Maybe transparent black or steel grey.

    I dunno, I personally prefer the red US Greatest Hits cases myself. The yellow stuff just takes over the entire box art and makes it look cheap.
