Since the Platinum Hits line was introduced, it has accounted for more than 16% of all software sales on the popular console.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ratchet and Clank is a game that I really wanted to get, but I could never justify $60 bucks.  Not because the game was not good, but at the time I already had spent close to $200 on games (F1CE, Resistance, and Oblivion).  Throwing down another $60 was just too much, and besides, I knew that I would not find the time to really enjoy the game.<\/p>\n<p>Things change when the price falls to $29.99.  The articles mention Heavenly Sword and MotorStorm, which are two games I would also like to give a go.  More so with Heavenly Sword.  I would also like to give Conan a whirl, but I doubt it sold anywhere near enough to get into the Greatest Hits (or whatever they are call it) line.<\/p>\n<p>I have been thinking about dumping Resistance for a while because I have never been able to get into it.  Not really my cup of tea.  Doubt I will be able to do much with it now, but maybe I can get near enough for one of the boobie games.  If I have to spell out Heavenly Sword and Conan you should stop reading this blog.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PS3 Fanboy is running a couple of different articles [link 1 and link 2] that show some \u201cGreatest Hits\u201d type titles are on the way for the PS3.
