Anything to do with games at all.

Did the packaging on budget labels annoy you?

I just caught sight of my minimal PS4 physical collection. Because I picked up the console late in its life, three of the four games are Hits range versions, and I think the red gradient spines look much better.

Never liked the budget lace cases for 32 bit and beyond software, but I loved the budget label C64 boxes (Hit Squad, Mastertronic, Kixx etc).

It was all I ever had back then, and they used to all go so nicely together (though to be clear I did not have games on shelves as a 6 year old, they all used to be in a bin liner).

I don't see there being anything wrong with the various 'budget' editions if you're not fussy about versions.

That said, I personally avoid them because I have problems and need all my games to look as uniform as possible on my shelves.

Didn't really bother me, Playstation Platinum looked cool in my view and meant that the game would be £20 in Argos :lol:

The PC Value packaging always screamed cheap/value but as others said its the game that matters not the packaging in these ranges
