"PS 2 Platinum Games"

I'm a bit of a novice at the consoles and games but since I got the kids a PS2 for Xmas I am shopping around online for a couple of extra games.

There appears to be 2 different types of a game. Can anyone tell me what the Platinum version is and as it always appears to be cheaper than the "normal" version of the game is it inferior in any way?

Thanks

Thanks to "Monkey" and Reynolds for the help.

On the subject of platinum games (probably under £20) are there any online stores you would reccommend.

As stated in my first post I am a novice at this and would appreciate any help or advice.

Thanks for the reply. The kids will never know the diffrence and it will be a wee bit easier on my wallet.

Here's a list of all the platinum games i am aware of, i think there may be a couple more, but i'm not sure. All should be under £20.

Medal Of Honor: Frontline
Ratchet And Clank
Gran Turismo 3
Burnout 2: Point of impact
The Getaway
The Lord of the rings: The two towers
Crazy Taxi
James Bond 007: Nightfire
Final Fantasy 10
Splinter Cell
Tekken 4
Grand Theft Auto 3
Spyro 4: Enter The Dragonfly
Kingdom Hearts
Timesplitters 2
Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Gt Concept 2002: Tokyo-Geneva
Red Faction
Burnout
Fifa 2003
Tekken Tag
Metal Gear Solid 2
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Stuntman

It's no different from the game in it's original case, it's just been put on the Platinum range for people to get their hands on it for a better price.

So no, the game and everything is exactly the same apart from the casing it is in.
