I wish they would go back to CD cases but it seems like plastic boxes are here to stay and the PS5 ones look nice but nothing special. I'm more impressed with the amount of detail on that Spidey suit. Graphics are going to be insane! Much prefer the plastic boxes over CD cases. More durable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arizona Ranger Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Personally, I think that it looks sharp with the white labeling and the blue case. Although I do agree with @LegacyJKO09 that it would be cool to see all games come with a awesome steelbook case instead of the usual plastic case. 59 minutes ago, ziggypossum said: Agree, that would be nice. Now that looks pretty awesome having an all-black case with the white labeling. Shame that SONY isn't going with this case color combination, but the white/blue case isn't a bad option in the grand scheme of things.

Dangisuckatgamin Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I never buy physical so it don't really matter to me. But i'm glad they still are making physical for those that still buy physical. ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rias Gremory Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 White color like that can ruin the cover art very quickly. Apart from that, the cover art looks really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omelette Paradise Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Underwhelming. Would look much better if the cases were white, black or clear IMO. White with the blue case looks odd to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honor_Hand Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Looks good enough for me. Don't think I could say anything wrong about the cases myself. The box art, on the other hand, it's just okay. I'd appreciate a bit more of background or actual art in the cover art itself rather than developers just slapping the main character on a cool pose. I mean, it gets the job done rather quickly and looks good, but it lacks a bit of soul at the same time too you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh4d0wzcs Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I don't really care what the cases look like, I'm more about playing the game and not starting at a case. Honestly it does look pretty good but, kinda reminds me of the old Wii cases tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Me: Wow, that artwork is pretty cool Some clown on Instagram: Hrm blue cases just like last gen rob the next generation of its own identity. I'm not buying them now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrophyChief Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) PlayStation wants to keep the blue branding I’m sure for marketing and branding purposes. Nintendo - red, Xbox - green, PS - blue. Blue better than the others imo. Keeping the blue may have also helped with keeping manufacturing costs down? Reusing same cases? I like it. I’ll continue to collect and add to my physical media collection. I’ll still opt for steelbooks for PS Exclusives when they become available though. Thinking more, I will try to collect both steelbook and regular box art for games. Edited July 10, 2020 by MrTrofyHunter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PostGameBlues Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I get that they wanna stay blue for brand recognition (like green = xbox, red = nintendo) but a black or white case would have been more fitting in my opinion if they really wanted to go the two-toned route for everything. Still looks ok though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was posted on Push Square a while back where some user made them. (S)he is not the only one though; a lot more people started creating these PSone-style cases for PS4 games and they all look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly happened in the music industry. No more record stores (Tower Records, etc.). Even iTunes success was short-lived with everyone going to streaming. Perhaps, gaming is different but I would imagine it gets there eventually. Industries come and go all the time. Adaptation is the name of the game.

Babsimabuse Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Industry has to satisfy the customer demand. Customer has not to preserve supply chain lines. But there are good reasons to buy retail at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as people keep buying then physical media will keep going. Limited run games is a great example of what collectors are willing to pay for a physical copy I will keep supporting physical media until the end. Digital is more expensive for games anyway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people dont have good enough internet to stream 4k Netflix etc (i cant even stream 1080P in consistently good quality). I dont think we are anywhere near streaming games becoming the normal. Doing so would eliminate a lot of the market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
