after seeing that in some games with the "Gratest hits" tittle on Playstation 2 there is some differences between the original ones (in some games), don't know if this hapens in Nintendo and Xbox or other consoles. So, if you guys can help on making a list of those games that change (game play, new Worlds, music, Etc) from the original to the Greatest Hits - Platinum Hits - Players choice, that way we can know if it's worth to buy both (original and gratest hits) or if only with the original is just fine.
Remember, only games that have changes from original to Greatest hits - Platinum Hits - Players choice (game play, new Worlds, music, Etc) (PS1, Ps2, PS3, PSP, PsVita, Xbox, Xbox 360, Nes, Snes, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Gameboy Color/Advance, DS, 3DS, and other consoles)
- N64
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Players Choice
- Many glitches were fixed along with some on-screen text issues and a very minor graphical change was made
- Ganondorf's and Ganon's blood have been changed from red to green
- The Fire Temple theme song has been replaced with a remix of the Shadow Temple's theme
- Various text-box spelling and punctuation errors have been corrected
- A useful 100% speedrun glitch where you can get the eyeball frog from King Zora without trading anything to him has been fixed.
- You can no longer skip the Bongo-Bongo cutscene by dropping a bomb down before the fight
- Playstation
Spyro: Years of the Dragon - Spyro: Years of the Drago Greatest Hits
- In the original version, the cutscene "Spike is Born" goes unused. (It can still be accessed via the cutscene cheat once the game is completed along with the others) This was fixed in the Greatest Hits version where it plays directly before the Spike's Arena boss fight.
- A serious bug present in the speedways was removed in the Greatest Hits version. If one were to quit the level before obtaining the level's egg then that egg would become completely unobtainable.
- The music for Lost Fleet was changed from the music used for "Super Bonus Round" to a remix of Sheila's theme.
- The music for Evening Lake was changed to its intended track. In the original, it erroneously plays the theme of Sunrise Spring.
- The music for the skateboarding levels was changed to its own unique track.
- All of the speedways except the Harbor Speedway use different music tracks in the Greatest Hits version.
- In the original release, the Sorceress's boss theme goes unused, since it erroneously plays the Sunrise Spring track. This was fixed in the Greatest Hits. (similar case like Evening Lake)
Dino Mines plays Molten Crater's theme in the original version.
Enchanted Towers' two subgame areas for Spyro (The Lost Wolf and the Stunt Skateboarding areas.) play the music track for Desert Ruins instead. In the Greatest Hits version, they use a different theme not heard anywhere else in the game. The main area of Enchanted Towers however still plays Sgt. Byrd's theme however, probably because Sgt. Byrd can be used in the main part of the level.
Haunted Tomb plays Cloud Spires in the original version rather than its own unique theme that it gets in the Greatest Hits version.
Crystal Islands plays Seashell Shore's theme in the original version but gets its own theme in the Greatest Hits version.
None of these changes are present in the 'Platinum' release, the European equivalent of Greatest Hits, except for the 'Spike is Born' cutscene being present and the speedway bug being fixed. Unusually, the Sorceress' boss theme in the Platinum release still isn't her original theme, but is in fact Spike's Arena.

Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening - Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening greatest hits
It included a number of gameplay changes and additional content. Most notably, players could now choose to play as Dante's twin brother, Vergil. Other changes included an added survival mode called "Bloody Palace" with a total of 9999 levels; a new Jester fight early in the game, with optional fights later; a "Turbo Mode" for 20 percent faster gameplay; and a continue system which can revive the character instantly, or allow the player to restart the fight they just lost as many times as they like. The game also has rebalanced difficulty. Vergil was made to contrast Dante's gameplay; While Dante was weaker than Vergil, he was still easier to control with Vergil requiring more skills to handle. Due to space limitations not all of Vergil's moves were added to the game.
The new boss is Jester, a character who is encountered several times during cutscenes in the first edition of the game but is never actually fought. In Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition, he is a semi-optional boss (insofar as the first fight with him is mandatory but the later encounters can be skipped) who can be fought three times.
Virtua Fighter 4 - Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution
Evolution was an updated version of Virtua Fighter 4. The game introduced two new characters and adjusted every other character as well. The two new characters were the Judoka-assassin Goh Hinogami and the Muay Thai boxer Brad Burns. With the addition of Brad Burns, Vanessa Lewis's alternate Muay Thai style from Virtua Fighter 4 was removed and replaced with a Vale Tudo "Offensive" style; making her a solely Vale Tudo brawler.
All of the stages were adjusted. For example, Lei-Fei's stage in Virtua Fighter 4 previously took place during sunset, in Evolution it takes place during the morning.
