INTRODUCTION [SEC-1] ============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-A ABOUT THIS GUIDE [SEC-1A] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome to the PlayStation Platinum Games List. This guide will serve as a reference for PlayStation owners who want to know more about the budget range which was released by Sony between 1997 and 2005. I hope it will be especially useful for dedicated PlayStation collectors who wish to avoid getting any Platinum releases, or inversely, wish to collect all Platinum titles. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-B WHAT IS A PLATINUM GAME? [SEC-1B] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A PlayStation Platinum game is a video game which has been re-released at a reduced price after achieving a certain level of sales. Originally, Platinum games were sold for half the recommended retail price of new releases ($AU49.95), though they were later sold for a third of the original cost of a new release (AU$29.95). The Platinum Range was launched in March 1997. It coincided with a major drop in the price of the PlayStation - a one-two punch to counter the threat of the Nintendo 64, which launched at about the same time. The first batch of Platinum titles included: Air Combat Battle Arena Toshinden Destruction Derby Ridge Racer Tekken Wipeout Worms I am led to believe that FIFA 2005 was the final Platinum release. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-C HOW DOES A GAME "GO PLATINUM?" [SEC-1C] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A game would "go Platinum" (i.e. join the Platinum Range) when it achieved total sales of 100,000 units across all PAL territories (Europe, Australia, New Zealand, India and Africa) after one year. Later, Sony revised the total to 250,000 units after 9 months, then again to 400,000 units. For the PlayStation 2, that number jumped to 400,000 until after the release of the PlayStation 3, when they just re-released whatever they felt like (i.e. all SCES titles). In most cases, the "black label" (i.e. standard or non-Platinum) release of a game will be reduced to Platinum price in order to clear out inventory. For those looking to avoid Platinum games, this is the best time to get a copy, as you will get the original game for a reduced price. Platinum games also tended to be released in batches on a regular basis, usually once a quarter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-D DIFFERENCES BETWEEN STANDARD AND PLATINUM GAMES [SEC-1D] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The differences between a standard release of a game and its Platinum release are usually quite obvious, but some might sneak under the radar. - The black "PlayStation" bar at the bottom of a game's cover is changed to a silver bar which reads "PlayStation Platinum". The bar is added for games which were released before Sony introduced the black bar (basically anything before September 1997). - The same happens to the front cover of the game's manual. - The spine of the game will be changed from black to silver - /P is sometimes added to the game's SLES/SCES Code (part number). - Standard release games tend to have elaborate disc art. For a Platinum game, this art is discarded and replaced with a very generic printing featuring the game's title and the Platinum logo. All Platinum games have exactly the same design. - Any bonus materials which were packaged with the original version of a game will be discarded for the Platinum release. - In some rare cases, the publisher of the game will use the Platinum release of a game to correct glitches that were present in the original release of a game. Some games even gained analogue control and Dual Shock support. - The Platinum version of a game may be released in different packaging. This usually occurs where a game was originally released in the Double CD cases Sony used before they brought in the fatter dual cases, or where the Platinum version was released after the PlayStation hardware was redesigned into the PSOne. In this instance, Platinum releases tend to come in regular sized CD cases. ============================================================================== SECTION II.
