Is there a difference between Platinum & non Platinum games?

As per the title.  I have been looking at "Lemmings" and some of the games say "Platinum" on the front cover and others don't.

 

Is there any difference?

 

Thanks in advance.

I think they're just cheaper. If you bought a boxed version of a platinum, they are obviously not as collectible even though they are the same game IIRC.

- PS2 SCPH-70003

There isn't any difference as the platinum edition label is only given to games whose sales go above a certain amount.

I remember the PS2 Platinum Gamesaves where different from regular game files and were incompatible with each other.

There's no difference between the two, the best-selling* games on each PlayStation platform are re-released as 'Platinum' versions at a reduced price. :smileyhappy:

*The last time i checked, in Europe a game has to sell at least 400,000 copies within a year to become a platinum game.

I never had that issue, but I must admit, it was one game I had that was platinum; Final Fantasy X. I purchased the non platinum version and it worked fine. Perhaps I was just lucky?

some savvegames dont work because platinum games are a newer version with bugs patched and game updates installed.
