THIS ONLY APPLIES TO NORTH AMERICAN PlayStation 2 RELEASES.
Like many of you I do notice that the greatest hits edition's of games can be eye sores. I mean sometimes with a particular game, the red pops with the cover and makes it looks better. But stacked in a collection, they do stand out. So why in the hell would anyone choose the red box over an original Black Box version? Well turns out there are a few games out there, that beg you to get the GH version instead. Now this is by no means a Greatest Hits vs Orignal debate. Of course not, but this is a cool look into a weird practice from yesteryear and the differences between each version of a game.
Sit back, relax, and lets explore the odd world of Hidden Special Editions.

People clearly caught on to what you are talking about because as of 2021 the Greatest Hits version of Silent Hill 2 now sells for up to $40 more than the Black Label version!

I like having different coloured spines, it adds some variety. I had no idea that there were differences between some originals and greatest hits versions.

I know this also applies to PS1 games as well. Is there a site where you can look up the changes or fixes in the greatest hits version compared to the original issue? Cause I wanna know if any PS1/2 Twisted Metal games had improvements or bug fixes in the greatest hits versions.

I have both copies. The lighting is alot better I the greatest hits version. The flashlight is super blocky in the black label and in the greatest hits is alot smoother and more round. I finally found the greatest hits version at my local disc replay. Now I have all the original Silent Hill games 1-4 and I can die happy lol 🤩

Repost: I absolutely agree, having the greatest hit label with the original black label together never bothers me. They are both unique and beautiful in how they look. Watching this video tells me to not always go by the aesthetic when buying a product. EDIT: So some GH games might have a special bonus but BL has better printing. i.e. color manual, and more pages. The GH isn't always identical to the BL as the GH is a cheaper product. So don't always look at the game look at the casing and booklet as well. A perfect example is Kingdom Hearts 1.

@@Joeki11a Its great for indie developers, and even when they sell a bunch, they always seem to release a physical version, as a thanks to its fans. Digital helps alot, but when big game companies start literally deleting games or just outright stopping the consumer from even being able to play a game they own, thats when I begin to prefer physical. Its a double edged sword and I like actually owning my games...
