| Do you hate Greatest hits/Players choice games? |

I've always wondered, is there any way to tell if a GameCube disc is a Player's Choice or a black label? I've never been able to figure out the difference. |

I had this conversation with some one recently. I'm pretty sure that there is no recognizable difference between player's choice and black label releases for gamecube other than the cover art. There are some exceptions like Smash Bros where the PC release is a different version as detailed on the version info printed on the disc. |

Those evil corporate devils have no respect for the authenticity of the experience. Seriously though, I'm glad they relabeled these so that as collectors you can tell the difference without having to look at publishing dates/barcodes or cross their fingers that they are buying the version they are going after. And, as someone who just wants to play the game, I'm glad that a less expensive complete version is available for $20 and I don't have to pay $60, or $55 for used (when did that happen? Used use to mean a minimum of half price) sit through endless updates and shell out an additional $10 per DLC pack. --- End quote --- I think "definitive," enhanced, "plus," or game of the year editions are different, though, in my opinion. If there's nothing different between the original and GH version, I'll take the black label, but that's just an aesthetic preference. --- End quote --- I've heard that sometimes a Greatest Hits version will fix bugs or other errors. But they don't add content or anything. |

Super Smash Bros. Melee had several revisions. 2 or 3 non-PC revisions and 1-2 PC revisions. I think if it weren't for the fact that Nintendo over produced Super Smash Bros. Brawl by like a million copies (I'm probably underestimating that number), we'd have a Nintendo Selects version already. EDIT: Almost a whole week later I realized I wrote Melee instead of Brawl. |
