That's not how these rereleases work. When the rerelease a game under the Greatest Hits or Platinum Hits or "the Best" title, it's because they have a bunch of backstock and want to generate excitement for the repackaging to try and regain some of the money they lost by a) failing to sell enough copies in the first place and b) repackaging the games.

There's a minimum sales requirement to sell a Greatest Hits version of a game. To massively overproduce over the minimum requirement, then, is to expect to sell it as a Greatest Hits version. Also, some games have bugfixes in their Greatest Hits version. How do you explain that?

What a bizarre day.

I had a French test today in the 5th/6th lesson, and since due to my frailness I have trouble staying at school an entire day I decided to go to school later to I would surely be there then.
And thus I went to the 5th lesson and stayed until the end of the day, which is 15:25 on Thursdays. Since usually I nap around that time, and before departing I had merely eaten a few tiny potatoes with butter and salt my circulation was pretty much disabled.
Still, afterwards I insisted on going to Bonn still where I bought a volume of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles I had missed, and two books about Hinduism and Polish history. By now I would already get dizzy merely turning around a corner, but as if I'd care, haha.
Then I returned, ate the sushi we brought, and fell asleep at ~17:50 until I woke up at almost 19:45. Clazy.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles

The complete first and second season was just released in a box set on the 18th. It also came with both OVA's and the movie. I think it also had a art book and some random keychains with it. I picked it up the other day. Ran me about 90+ dollars, but it was worth it in my opinon.

So I've been 21 for nearly a week now. My friends are taking me out tonight. It's going to bad due to these factors:
1) I live in a college town whose bar scene is supported by college students.
2) I'm going out on Thirsty Thursday.
3) I'm going out with no less than six friends, all of whom just got their financial aid checks.
4) At least two of these friends are intent on making me puke.

Bugfixes? It's not just in the greatest hits versions. For example, one of the early ways to hack the PSP was GTA:LCS, but you could only have something from the first print or so because in later prints (NOT in greatest hits versions), the glitch was fixed.

You forgot that games that have manuals (all of them) are usually printed in black and white instead of the usual color pages.

Also, it doesn't apply to most games, but some have the actual face of the cd changed. The original FFIX had a character's face on every disc, while the greatest hits version removed the faces.

I think it's the same with VIII, but who cares about that one?

FFVIII is amazing. When it comes to mechanics, at least. The story and environment and characters sucked.

The mechanics were innovative, but they needed more work. The system was way too easy to exploit and make yourself ridiculously overpowered early on in the game. I think it would be interesting to see the junction system come back in another game though.

Also I'm prejudiced. Fucking Triple Triad.

I think Nomura is implementing a Junction like system in FFVersusXIII

Gah I haven't felt this unmotivated since my senior year of high school. I hate Ecology.
