Sony PlayStation 2 - PAL Packaging Variant List

From Redump Wiki

A work-in-progress list documenting Sony PlayStation 2 Packaging Variants including alternate editions, serial number extensions, and alternate barcodes.

For a dedicated list of undumped builds see Sony PlayStation 2 PAL Missing Dumps.

Notes:

• The list is ordered by serial number. The serial number is recorded as on the disc label. If the packaging has an alternate serial number than on the disc, please add it to the "Notes" column.
• If feasible, save pictures as evidence with archive.org's Save Page Now and link them in the "Notes" column. The most important info can be found on the Disc Label and Back Cover.
• If the columns start becoming wonky sized, may need to break up the tables into smaller sizes (such as grouping serial numbers by the 100's).

Serial number variant notes:

• Re-release serials (which occasionally contain software updates on the disc):
  • "#", "#2", "#3", etc can indicate an updated revision of the game version/software. However the "#" may indicate a change in packaging art only. In a few rare examples, some serial numbers were issued with only a "#"-version serial number (and no non-"#" serial number variant exists).
  • "/E" is for the PlayStation Essentials version of the game.
  • "/P" is for the PlayStation Platinum version of the game.
• Limited Editions can occasionally contain unique builds of the game:
  • "/SE" for Special Edition and "/CE" for Collector's Edition, but this serial extension is usually only found on the box and not on the disc as the disc itself (which usually matches the standard retail version).
• Regional extensions are generally not indicative of unique builds:
  • Including: "/ANZ" (Australia & New Zealand), "/RUS" (Russia), etc.
  • There may be a "#" revision indicator at the end of the extension however "/ANZ#".

TO DO:

• Swap Region and Title order in list.
• Reorder by serial number.
