While they're not officially announced in the U.S., Canadian online game store www.futureshop.ca is showing that Jak II, Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando, and SOCOM II: U.S. Navy SEALs are all about to become Greatest Hits titles. The cover art for these games now contain the familiar red Greatest Hits logo and the game descriptions all describe the games as "Now Greatest Hits.

Only a matter of time before stores get them in and change the price to GH status.

Just want to say that someone on another forum found the Jak 2 and R&C2 games with the greatest hits tag at Target, so they price drop should occur soon

Not new, but Jak 2, R&C2, Rise to Honor, and Socom 2 are being advertised as GH $19.99 in next week's Best Buy ads. Looks like they'll be a big jump in online users for Socom 2

Forgot to mention that the Circuit City ad has Tony Hawk Underground (PS2) with the red Greatest Hits stripe
 
Apparently, The Sims: Bustin Out has been spotted at Best Buy with the PS2 GH stripe.

And Matlock, Rise To Honor needs to be added to PS2 GH List.

Has anyone noticed the new Super Smash Brothers games Nintendo is shipping out no longer have the yellow Players Choice bar on the top. They have added a "Best Seller" logo on the box, though. I thought that was weird. I guess they are no longer advertising it as a Players Choice so they can brag about all their Players Choice games being $20.

This is in Australia though, It would mean it'd be coming to the US pretty soon though, if not already.

Vindication...sweet.
TimeSplitters 2 has joined the GC Player's Choice line.

Unknown if it has joined the PS2 Greatest Hits or Xbox Platinum Hits.
