Rereleases - PlayStation 2 the Best

If this is just like Greatest Hits/Platinum I am surprised you have never come across this selection. I'm sure if it is out on this selection they will be selling it at that price, if you look around you might be find the original box at that same price, I don't often see them retail at the original price. Many people obviously go for that if they can find it obviously because of the hideous borders etc. Then again, that is probably quite a difference in money so look around for the original at that low price.

I'm not sure if in PC games (perhaps of titles long, long ago), repackaged bundles could have manuals left out, but that is a different case as there usually is a manual on the CD anyway. Other companies often do repackaging and labelling as 'Classic', 'the best' whatever, I can't imagine for console games that they would leave the manual out. I'm sure the manual cover opts for those ugly borders too.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I know it doesn't really matter, but I'm sure there's people out there who like to own the original. Maybe they want people to think they paid full price for it new whatever.

How about the PlayStation? That too had a rereleases selection as well. Perhaps you are new to gaming?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
