    I noticed that the PS-2 Japanese version of Metal Slug Complete has 2 different covers:



    And this:



    How can this be? What's the difference between the 2 compilations? Is the 2nd a genuine cover or marely a pirate made copy?

    Could be a re-release.

    My thinking exactly.

    Every game system has a greatest hits release set of the most popular games toward the middle and end of the consoles life cycle.

    Though it doesn't say "greatest hits" directly on the two covers. Could it be a platinum release with bonus materials and the like? I know games like Halo and stuff usually come with limited edition releases. THat is quite common too.

    What confused me is that it doesn't say "Greatest Hits", or "Platinum" in either cover, so I can’t tell which is the original and which the re-release/re-issue?
