I do like the PS1 cases and the original "small PlayStation logo" cover design looked so cool. They did scratch and break fairly easily, though - with the Dreamcast cases perhaps even more prone to damage. But, yeah, they sure were neat at launch, KK!

Those do look to be great, Pedz. Are those pictures from copies in you own collection, dude?

WRONG!...
I'm *assuming* that jiggs was referencing the cover designs rather than the case itself, Ironhide. Certainly hope so

Those "big box" games certainly were pretty neat, Jen, and you needed plenty of space for a game collection then
. I still have my Amiga games, albeit they've been up in the loft for years.

Amen to that, man. The original black designs were so good and, whilst I thought that the later blue designs were *okay*, they didn't - in my view - look as cool.
