Greatest Hits[]

1997-2006[]

PS1 Greatest Hits

Greatest Hits is Sony's budget software range used in North America. The first incarnation, used on PlayStation releases, changed the black PlayStation banner to green. The logo was written vertically up the spine of the case in red. These releases were nicknamed "green label" as opposed to the original black label releases.

2002–2014[]

PS2 & PSP Greatest Hits

With the release of the PlayStation 2, Greatest Hits titles dropped the green in favor of red and in turn became commonly known as "red label" releases. On game covers, a banner was used with the above logo in a large red curve under the main PS2 banner. The same logo is also used on PlayStation Portable releases, however unlike the PS2 ones the banner is not curved. In 2009, the PSP banner and the Greatest Hits banner switched places.

2008–2009[]

PS3 Greatest Hits

The original Greatest Hits banner on PlayStation 3 releases featured a red to white gradient, from top to bottom. The font was also updated with greater letter spacing.

PS3 Greatest Hits (2009)

From 2009 when the branding of the PlayStation 3 was updated to coincide with the slim redesign, the Greatest Hits banner was altered slightly. The old red and white gradient was replaced with a solely red one which lightened from left to right.
