On September 2nd the PlayStation 3 Platinum range received a handful of new titles. These popular games require no introduction and may well be of interest to any recent purchasers of the new PS3 model.
All these games have reached sales of over 400,000 and so to celebrate we are offering consumers a chance to add these unmissable titles to their collection for an unbeatable price – £19.99 / €29.99.
So check out the list below, including their shiny new Platinum box art.
And last, but by no means least, Metal Gear Solid 4

Lots of things good and bad with the 3.0 update, so i wont go on about what other people are saying. but what i will suggest is this!!!:
The ONE thing I want from the XMB (and have wanted since launch) is the option to GROUP MY FRIENDS LIST…I have lots of friends/different clans/teams, and grouping would make life a lot easier!!! we can group music and videos so why not friends?!?!? if this is possible already then please tell me, if not, then can you add the option in 3.01 please!

i agree completely, grouping the friend list would be a nice addition to the PS3.

ya them yellow boxes are horrid, great games & i already have them, but if i didnt id rather buy second hand ones with pics on the disc and a nicer looking box, you should do away with the yellow and just slap a silver\platinum border round the edges

Ok, Now I have to say it. Who designed these cases and covers?.. Yellow and grey. The designer must be blind!

I wonder how many people would refuse to purchase Gran Turismo 5 if it was released in a bright green box with a tiny picture of a baked bean on the front of it.

regarding pricing of games – there seems to be fixed price points which are £40-45 (UK), $60-65 (US), €60-65 (EU). this actually makes some sense economically, for what currency could you set the fixed price and vary everybody else?. it would be madness. set it in $US and the UK/EU would vary all the time. set it in pounds, and the US price would be all over the place (it would have varied from $85 to $55 to $75 in less than 12 months) which be very annoying to consumers. these price points are common to all the publishers, EA, activision, konami, ubisoft, etc. not just sony. for inflationary measures, it’s not good to let prices wander up and down erratically. the UK has been getting shafted on prices for years, so i don’t really feel much sympathy. at the time of the PS3 launch £40 was more than €60 and way more than $60, we’re just getting some benefit from a weaker pound at the minute. however, some reckon the £55 price point for MW2 could be a market tester to see how it reacts (my guess is badly, probably not for MW2, but certainly for other titles) as a prelude to higher prices in 2010. another consideration is that the UK has the lowest sales tax in europe (it differs by 10% compared to some countries).

in any case, my points were : try to make the games platinum faster, so the game isn’t dead (multiplayer) by the time people get it platinum, plus it’ll just sell more copies in general, so everybody wins..
secondly : the covers..why are the platinum covers so disgustingly ugly (and I know there’s a lot of people who think so)..some people suggest you guys might even do it just so we would get the original (more expensive) version of the game :d Just so we wouldn’t have to get it with the ugly cover.. I mean c’mon, grey and yellow :s It’s just ugly..make them look more like the original see-through boxes or use more mature colors like black and grey?
