Actually from the looks of things (and correct me if I'm wrong, Shadow and Banana I'm looking in your direction), it looks like the only difference between the regular pac-man and the 10th anniversary is the box.

I believe that's right, but I'm really into collecting variations, so I'd love to have it anyway.  You're talking to a guy that has 3 copies of Gyromite just because one doesn't have the TM logo and another has a slightly darker label.  Tongue  It's worse than just the regular cart collecting sickness.

Fokasis, how about updating the OP with a list of suggested subsets? Also, it looks like the Xbox One games that are launching with the system have a Day One banner on the front of the package so there is another subset.  Has anyone mentioned PSX Greatest Hits games yet?

...you rang?
Actually, the manual is different too - it's Black & White. I know I've seen some MINOR variants for Tengen, where you have the Manufactured by Tengen text on the box and cart for some but not for others (e.g. Gauntlet, own both carts). Might be worth checking the address too.

Sounds great, do i just edit the first post, and create a list there does that sound like it makes sense? I will get on that later today, probably.

The original black labels are certainly preferable but there are people out there trying to complete the GH set.

Oooh that reminds me. PS1 white labels. The collectors edition bundles from back in the day. Those white labels are slick.

I know there's one for the 3 Crash platformers, 3 Spyros, Grand Theft Auto 1, London 1969, and 2, and one that has some shooters like Medal of Honor.

You mean the EA Collector's Edition sets with Racing and Shooting?

Actually...

I bought GH Chrono Cross (because it was cheaper), but now I go out of the way to get GH when I buy American PlayStation games.  The green spines distinguish them from my PAL games on the shelf.

Those PS1 box sets are beautiful. Don't think I've ever seen them in the wild sadly.

For PS1 there was a couple of long box ones too. I don't have any of them but I do want to have them eventually.

A good cross platform subset are the main series Pokemon games. I haven't played one I didn't like yet. Also if you have the original RBY in box, you're the coolest.
