PS3 Launches Greatest Hits

Today announced the start of Sony's Greatest Hits lineup for the Playstation 3. The collection currently has ten games in it which will retail for $29.99 each.

The Greatest Hits games will be in red cases like this one. The games in the series are Resistance: Fall of Man, WarHawk, Motorstorm, Call of Duty 3, Fight Night: Round 3, Need for Speed Carbon, Rainbow Six: Vegas, Assassin's Creed, Oblivion, and Ninja Gaiden: Sigma.

Sony has said that the Greatest Hits version of Warhawk does not include a headset, but that the regular version with the headset should soon see a price reduction to $49.95.

Shivering Isles is Live!

That's right. Just in time for the Xbox Live downtime, Oblivion's expansion Shivering Isles is available on the marketplace for 2400 Microsoft Points($30). The expansion (which is available only through the marketplace) clocks in at 993.75 MB. Which sucks because Xbox Live will go down for 14 hours of maintenance in a handful of hours. So if you're quick, you might get it all downloaded. If not, you might have to wait.



Shivering Isles adds about 30 hours of gameplay to the already lengthy Oblivion world. In Shivering Isles, your character can explore a new world known as the Realm of Sheogorath where madness and chaos reign. There are also 10 added achievements totalling 250 extra points.

I'll probably get this when Xbox Live comes back online because I've been feeling like getting some more Oblivion in recently(I downloaded some of the very minor additions to it in the past but haven't played them all yet).
