A similar budget range in PAL markets is known as Xbox Classics for GB£19.99 and Best of Classics for GB£9.99. In Japan, they are known as Platinum Collection games and generally cost ¥2800, with the exception of games from the Dead or Alive series, which have been sold at ¥3800. Sales requirements may vary by region.

A second wave of titles was released in early 2007, with additional games being added periodically.
