un-ashamedly pasted from IGN


Sony Computer Entertainment today announced the establishment of a special "Mega Hits" series of PlayStation 2 software in Japan, comprised of games whose exceptional sales (more than 500,000 units) warrant their re-release at a lower price point. Similar to the American Greatest Hits series for the PlayStation, whose Japanese counterpart was known as "PlayStation THE BEST," the "Mega Hits" line will drop the most popular PS2 games to around 4,000 yen (in comparison to about 6,000 when they were first released). The price drop will begin on December 13.
The games included are:


Gran Turismo 3 A-spec -- 12/13 -- 4,200 yen
Tekken Tag Tournament -- 12/13 -- 3,980 yen
Onimusha -- 12/20 -- 3,980 yen
Importers may be slightly interested, perhaps if they prefer the Japanese GT3 tunes. This program does not apply to the US market, of course, although SCEA may be expected to institute a similar program in the future.

NO IT DOESN'T... GT-Concept may make it over here (the JAP motor show update), but Polyphony have stated that they have only just started planning GT4... Concidereing it took over 4 years to make GT3, somehow I can't see GT4 being here next year!!

I'm getting burnout on saturday, so I can let you know which is better, though it's pretty obvious that GT3 is the better game....

How far did we get? Far enough to enjoy the subtltey of the physics engines, the real sense of speed... 3 days is no where near enough to witness it;s true beauty!!
