SCEE Platinum line expands, includes Resistance 2, Killzone 2

by Andrew Yoon on Sep 8th 2009 3:15PM

The European budget line of "Platinum" titles has expanded quite significantly, adding four new titles for the low price of £19.99 / €29.99. The collection now includes Metal Gear Solid 4, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Resistance 2 and Killzone 2.

We're a bit jealous of our European friends, as games rarely get the "Greatest Hits" label so soon. Killzone 2, for example, released just a little over six months ago. However, it makes sense to drop the price of these games, especially Killzone 2, so soon -- there are a lot of new PS3 owners out there, hungry to try out the system's greatest games.

Cool, more people to play with !!

Their Great Games. Motorstorm isn't too bad .. i own the first .. but not this one it's basicly the same thing with a new area and new Toys To Race In ! hope the new UK PS3 Owners enjoy these games

Nice Killzone 2 for $30! Sony making the right decisions again for the PlayStation (yeah yeah the PSP GO is still too expensive) brand and making it more valuable to the consumer? I missed you Sony! Now give me God of War 3 and Final Fantasy 13 soon pleeeeease.

I hope the PSP Go get's a price cut before it's released (is that even possible?). Maybe Sony have seen the complaints about the price and will announce a €50 / $?? cut at TGS? I can dream on I guess...

I hope so too dude. It's ridiculous that their portable system that can only play downloadable games is more expensive than the more advanced PS3. I gave my PSP to my little bro so I'm definitely getting a GO if the price is lower than it is now.

30 euro. there's a bit of a difference there.

The PSP Go in general is really worthless, though.

I for one welcome these new players and pity them at the same time.

I shows no MERCY!!!

J/k

Too bad no one will buy the platinums because they are SO UGLY.

Yes, it is indeed too bad that:

a.) you're wrong.
b.) it doesn't matter what it looks like when you get the same content.
c.) IT'S ALMOST HALF THE DAMN PRICE.

christ they're hideous. yellow and silver do not go well together

Yeah, I agree here. When I buy a game I care about the box art.

The thing is, in the UK before a platinum version comes out the price usually drops to that of the platinum's price for the proper version.

So anyone with sense would buy the normal case not this.

I agree with the fact the case is ugly as I care about how the box art looks.
But I do what den-69 said; buy it at the platinum price with the original box art :)
