You may not miss those cardboard boxes but, what i liked about it is that they looked damn good!
It was what caught my eye in electronics boutique or GAME when i visit there.
I don't really like PS1 boxes, simply cos' it doesn't look up to the N64's colourful, smooth look.
The nice layout if the boxes, with the games name round the edges, the picture of the main bit of the game and some good looking screenshots and description at the back, no wonder people buy games by mistake!

But the new Red Alert 2 doesn't look too good in a DVD box, and i wouldn't want to buy a game that has that kind of thing carrying it.
But the good thing is discs are finally being a part of every company.
But i think looks do matter sometimes, if a company wants to advertise and sell it.
