Why dont they just sell the normal boxed games at the platinum price. Platinum packaging always has degraded the sight of your collection with their 'NO FRILLS BRAND' packaging.

Platinum or no platinum, doesnt really bother me, been buying top games with cheap price tags for a while now, so the Platinum label on the side shouldnt make a difference to me.

Yeah Big W are good Even EB have some good prices now there having there half year sale But for the cheapest games, I-M-P-O-R-T

I'm in the same boat as Cal Some stupid "Platinum" banner on the case doesn't bother me I tend to not look at the price tag when i buy in store anyway

I found this interesting:

To qualify for Platinum status, a game must achieve more than 400,000 units across the PAL territories.

Heh, the platinum games in the states (America) are $30 U.S. Lucky for them, crap for us. I wonder if play-asia and other sites will price them at them at that as well.

$30 U.S. with postage is still cheaper than the Australian retail price of $50.



P.S The red cases look great, and unique.
