I just remembered another thing that's been bothering me for years.

PlayStation's Greatest Hits, Platinum and Essentials re-releases.

 

It was acceptable on PS1 and PS2 (mostly grey) but terrible on PS3 (yellow and red).

     

 

I know it's because they want us to buy the games before they hit the bargain bin but as a collector it's driving me nuts going online and buying what seems to be a game with the original box art only to receive a game with a cover that shits all over the work of the cover artist. Additionally, the color hurts my eyes and it sticks out like a dick on a cake.

It's 1st world problems and I shouldn't care, I know. But if Sony does this again with PS4 re-releases, I hope they make them more subtle. Apart from the grey cases, I think the way Microsoft designed the latest Xbox 360 "Classics" is a much better way to make box art for budget games. Here, I barely notice the difference on my shelf.

 

In the perfect world, it'd just be an easy to remove sticker.

damn that sucks really hard. Im glad to be in the US where the design for GH is much simpler. just a red banner
