Metal Gear Solid 4 And More Go Greatest Hits

Added by Jeff Gerstmann on May 28, 2009

With the money you'll save, you can afford some of these weird Japanese energy beverages!

Sony has announced a new batch of re-releases for its Greatest Hits line. This brings the prices down to $29.99 for games that Sony has deemed to be "the best of the best." The following games will drop down to their new price on June 16:

Considering you can already pick up new copies of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue for $34.99, that's not much of a break. And, sure, there are a few games on that list that I probably wouldn't call "the best of the best." But if you don't have Metal Gear Solid 4 and you own a PlayStation 3, steal forty bucks already. Then... lay low until the 16th, I guess.

GT5 Prologue is on the Greatest Hits before GT5 even comes out? Bummer.

I think I'll pick up Ratchet and Clank when I have a few extra bucks.

Army of Two has been 20 bucks on the 360 for a long ass while now. Sony is fucking this up because some of these games should have been price dropped already. Anyway, everyone, face it. GT5 Prologue is GT5, thats as close as that shit is going to get to coming out. I think we can instead try and look ahead to GT6 Prologue.

I expected a lot later shit.Even Resistance 2 i expected to be here.LBP atleast..The only thing that holds up today is MGS4 from the least.And DMC4 should be like 15 bucks now.

MGS 4 has been selling for £17.99 for months and months now.

In fact all of those games have been on play.com dirty cheap for ages. (no ad intended)
Good news for playstation owners - bad news for retailers having to shift excess stock ...

I haven't gotten Ratchet and Clank: Future yet so that is probably a good deal. MGS4 is needed for anyone that has not gotten it yet.

i don't think Army of Two is considered to be "best of the best". its not even "good".

Good plan for Sony...I think LBP should be on that list as of now, since its been about six months.

Greatest Hit your console price already, Sony. It's still like ~500 colony bucks here.

You really have no idea what you're talking about. Kazunori Yamauchi was discussing GT5 just a few weeks ago. Here is the interview;

I picked up Bf bad company used for $17.99 at gamestop like a month ago.

I kinda want Devil May Cry 4, but $30 is still a bit much... used?

I think Uncharted, Resistance 2 and GTA IV should be added to the "Greatest Hits" list, though. Shame on you, Sony.

Cypher

It's not a matter of quality, it's a matter of sales. Yeah, Army of Two had a ton of problems, but it sold a million units on PS3. Therefore, it's a greatest hit title.

Now I have no excuse for not having MGS4.
