Just hit Wal-Mart and they had Activision Anthology in with the Greatest Hits stuff at $29.99 Cdn! ($20 US). Couldn't pass it up at that price! :) Yay!

Yuck. Greatest Hits packaging.

At least you have a stellar game to PLAY! Enjoy.

I'm still up in the air about GH packaging. Wouldn't there have been less made? Thus, won't the GH version of Vice City be much rarer in the long run than the regular version, which sold millions?

Ha! We've had this discussion here before but I'm too lazy to look for it! My philosophy is this: the original is always better. Why? I don't know. Something gnaws at the back of my head whenever I see the GH packages, it's a voice that's saying something along the lines of "it doesn't count if you don't own the original". The originals may very well be more common, but they're much nicer to look at and NOT so obviously a reproduction or reprint of any kind.

I have traded off every GH-packaged game I own once I came to grips with this. And I stand by it.

both Targets near me have a greatest hits section. all for 19.99 but if you look behind the GHs most of the originals are there.

Gotta agree with the aesthetics of the originals being better. That glaring red band just looks annoying.

Ah...but it's NOT Greatest Hits packaging! I said that it was in WITH the Greatest Hits games, not that it was one. Sorry..kind of deceptive. Anyway, it's the same price, but the original packaging! Even better! :)
