Need help with playstation 1 discs

Post by joehero »

Hey Guys, I just purchased a playstation 1 lot off ebay that included final fantasy VII. Problem is there are no cases. Im looking into buying some cases and manuals for the better games, but how do I determine if theyre greatest hit disc or original. I only have pictures of the front for now. http://i1022.photobucket.com/albums/af3 ... C02410.jpg And is there a good place other than ebay to find just cases, artwork, and manuals? Thanks!

Those are greatest hits discs. Almost all greatest hits are black print on silver top as compared to colored label original release.

Why do I see a signature on that Final fantasy 7 game?

I don't even think it's a demo disc of FFVIII It's simply an extended trailer. At least that what my 'fourth disc' is in my Platinum version of FFVII. For those that don't know, Platinum is the name for the greatest hits releases in PAL-Land.

I was about to say that the NTSC GH release didn't have an extra disc...

But yeah, thecoverproject.net can help you here.

Yea, demo is not the best word, mine is that too.

The demo of 8 is awesome, Rhinoa in Dollet, Squall in his casual wear in the Dollet mission / FMV, music not in the game, its a fans wet dream.
