Medievil 1 normal vs platinum

As I was looking at a portuguese auction site, finding some sellers that buy cheap games where I usually look for them, and sell them at higher prices as usual (I hate them), I came to realise one of the sellers had a platinum copy of Medievil I saw in that shop before he bought it but I did not pay attention to it. Now that he posted pictures of the game, I realized there was a map included. However, my regular edition does not come with a map. I have been searching through ebay and only found platinum versions with the map. Is it only available with the platinum version?

Nope, our smartass PS1 PAL database says for example in the German release of MediEvil:
Packaged with a map and the “Winter Releases ‘98″ Demo-CD (SCED 01441#).

I have the winter release, but not the map. Now I have an urge to find one.

Saturn,
the longer I look into this issue the more complicated it gets. As my (German) first release copy also misses the map I did some investigating. I came to the following conclusion. Lemme explain.

There are 3 (maybe 4) different releases out there.

1 - first release WITHOUT map, NO Dual Shock sticker on front jewel case and NO demo CD.

2 - first release WITHOUT map, WITH round sticker ???highly recommended?????? (English) or WITH sticker ???Dual Shock Compatible?????? (German) on front jewel case and WITH demo CD

3 - Platinum re-release WITH map and WITH Dual Shock sticker and WITH demo CD

?4? - Platinum re-release WITHOUT sticker, NO demo CD and NO map (I found a French release like that on eBay but who knows if simply all the goodies were lost/salvaged).

Thanks. I think the 4th release you mention is just missing the items. I have the game with the dual shock sticker and the demo disc but no map. I really need to target that platinum edition, hopefully in local shops.

On an additional note, I just got another copy of the regular edition. The funny thing is that the same demo is included in both games, but in one edition the demo comes inside a black sleeve and in the other the demo comes in a second cd holder, like most 2 disc games such as Resident Evil 2.

Seems like it’s the same poster, just not completely unfolded.

Will pack all this useful information in the PS1 database. Thanks for all investigating, folks.
