Seriously, who the **** wants to buy that god damn ugly red box. Couldn't they just put a sticker on the shrink wrap that says "greatest hits" and keep the damn transparent box ?
Am I the only one pissed by that ?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Yep I also hate the greatest hits game cases for Playstation 3. I aways try to avoid the ugly red cases.
Thats why the best time to get a greatest hits is immediately after a specifc title is announced as "greatest hits". Right after the announcement is made, retailers will still have old stock of the old case and they will reduce the price to the greatest hits price. This lets you get the game for the cheaper price but avoid the hideous red box.
Some people doThe red box is such a minor thing to whine about... really? It's the game you're playing... you don't stare at the box for enjoyment... :|

I can understand, when you have a whole library on your shelf you want it to look like a uniform wall of games, not with random red cases. I try to buy the original, but the red case wouldn't stop me from buying them, a great game is a great game.
Some people do agreed it ****s up the look of the collection and some people do collect them i used to get pissed at the ps1 greatest hit cases (only the paper actually was different) since those are the only games i collectThe red box is such a minor thing to whine about... really? It's the game you're playing... you don't stare at the box for enjoyment... :|

I prefer the US' red boxes to that...
Same here in Ireland. Hate those cases for some reason.I'd rather have the US Greatest Hits version then our horrible Platinum covers. Red isn't bad but Yellow in Silver cases is awful, the people in the US and Canada haven't got it that bad.here in australia the "greatest Hits" are called "platinum" and come in a solid grey box

I can't stand those red cases. When I look at my game collection I want all my different games to be uniform. If they want to use the greatest hits label that's cool, but do it with a clear case.
I hate those red boxes too, they look so ugly espacially when u have all black labels in your collection. Good thing for ebay though cause u can usually buy black label for the same price or cheaper. I was able to get Fallout 3 black label for $18 brand new.
UK, Australian (Me :))and New Zealanders get a platinum box. Its silver and has yellow for the ps3 logo. It looks pretty hardcore. The Greatest hits box are crap compared to platinum
I'd rather have the US Greatest Hits version then our horrible Platinum covers. Red isn't bad but Yellow in Silver cases is awful, the people in the US and Canada haven't got it that bad. Holy crap the art takes up less than 50% of the cover. Is this like a common thing today?[QUOTE="jon_cia"]

I don't mind them too much because the switched up the look of PS3 boxes anyways. So even though I only have 1 greatest hits box in my collection I have ton of the old styled boxes and an increasing number of the newer styled ones.
No you're not the only one, that crap annoys the hell out of me. If I ever get a cheap used game at Gamestop and they get out that red box, I ALWAYS ask if there's an older original box in the back because I can't stand the way those red boxes look on my shelf, especially since I'm a collector.
They do the same garbage with the Xbox 360 Greatest Hits, just plain stupid.
Lol@you. How could someone not? :P Seriously, people collect things and like them to look nice and organized. The red cases stick out like a sore thumb. Different strokes for different folks. If you don't get it then get out. ;)I loled so hard. How can someone care about a damn video game case...
