Is it just me or does all the games now have blue cases?
At first they were grey with a few exceptions (MGS2 was clear) then FFX came in blue.
I thought it quite tastefull but carried on nonetheless.
Then Timesplitters2, GTA:VC, and Ratchet & Clank all ahve blue cases.

So, has everyone else got blue cases? Or is it just the games I've got?

Do tell,

Does it matter?

As long as there is a game in the case that works,

let everything be merry.

I thought it would only be games that looked good with the blue case that would use it. The first game i got that looked good with the blue case was GT:Concept. I've got Blade on DVD in a white case, i thought that looked strange. I was glad to see that The Getaway came in the good ol' black case, it would have stunk in the blue one.

Since Spiderman: The Movie game came out, all of the games i have bought have had Blue Cases. Except for The Getaway.

Even OPSM2 Demo Disc has blue cases now.

LMA 2002 was the first game (Back in May) to feature the cases. Before that ALL the cases were actually blue, just a very deep blue (Take a close look). Then there was MGS2 in Feb with the Clear case and once GC was released (They used the black cases, alot like the deep blue ones that Sony used) Sony changed the cases to the blue you see now. The Getaway used a black case, the only PS2 game to ever do so. :D

No they just bung any case on the display. The real game you buy will have which ever case was shipped with it. I've seen Woolies place loads of PS2 games on there self with the XBox cases, if you buy the game you would get the proper case, as they retrieve it from the store room with the plastic covering over it etc.

If you own loads of different colour cases then just swap them over.
