Four new “Platinum Hits” coming… to Japan

by

Cheap Ass Games FTW!

When you’re cheap, like me, deals like Microsoft’s “Platinum Hits” series make you smile. I mean, here is a service which allows you, if you’re patient, to buy the best of the best in 360 titles for no more than $20.

Today, Kotaku (a website that does NOT treat their readers like trash) received an e-mail from Xbox Japan, telling them that there were four more “Platinum Hits” games on the horizon. Those games?

Chromehounds
Burnout Revenge
Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
Perfect Dark: Zero

This is GREAT News… if you live in Japan. But, since you probably live in the states (or Equador), I doubt this will really matter. In the US, the Xbox 360 Platinum Hits list includes Perfect Dark: Zero, but also has Project Gotham Racing 3, Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Kameo: Elements of Power.

Although, it does seem about the right time that Microsoft would come out and add onto that list. Games like Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Dead Rising are sure to be in that second batch, you would have to think. Either way, when Microsoft makes an announcement, you know for a fact I’ll be on top of it.
