ConsoleCollector88 | 8 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I have been wanting this for months but haven’t seen one anywhere. This just popped up, is this the real deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin532 | 467 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Strange how it doesn't have the PLAYSTATION 3 case. Either it's a later print run, a different manufacture, or it's a re-wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt17_52 | 3 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It’s a rewrap with a swapped case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austin532 | 467 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 They changed the cases around the same time they changed the Playstation 3 logo to PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the old style artwork should have the old style cases with Playstation 3 at the top? Is that only first print runs, or all sealed copies?

austin532 | 467 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Right but I'm not sure if there was some carry over. I remember Uncharted 2 was one of the first games to have the new change. Even the mock up box art still had the old style so it was changed at the very last minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be better in a new topic, but speaking of PS3, how do you and everyone else view the GOTY releases? Some of the GOTY releases had a small black label print run before they release the majority as red case Greatest Hits. Some also include the DLC and patches on disc making them attractive. Further some even have things like slipcovers that interest collectors. With that said, will first prints still be the most sought after overall even with the benefits some of the black label GOTY releases have?
