They're just too big, I'd need a lot of shelving just for game boxes, way, way too much (particularly for the PC boxes, but for consoles as well). I keep the games and boxes separately, boxes in the basement. I don't keep Genesis or SMS games in their cases either, those cases are large and it'd take up a lot of space if I did that... I keep some DVD-style case games in their cases, but not all. Some are in cases, some in CD holder things. For the PC I keep them in their jewelcases (or papersleeves, or for a few DVD cases).
Okay then.
Quote:It's not like all jewelcases break, I have plenty that still work... sure they are less durable, but they don't ALL break or something.
As for cardboard, as I said it's not that bad in terms of durability, really, as long as you don't treat the boxes too badly.
I'm not saying they always break, just that they are more likely to, and that's enough.
Quote:But the manual art is going to look nicer than the disc art, usually... why would you prefer to look at the disc than the manual? Huh?
What? When did I ever say that I would prefer to see the disk than the cover art? I'm saying I can't understand why you say jewel cases look better, and the only thing I can even speculate would be the reason is their transparency, which I was saying was rendered meaningless by inserts making it opaque again.
Quote:No way, I like Xbox cases. Green is my favorite color, I'd say their color is a plus. :)
Well okay then, though I'm again confused as to why you think jewel cases look better, if the look has nothing to do with it.
