The red cases typically kind of suck, but I found a while ago that they actually look really cool with certain games, so I switch them around. The first time I did this was with my GH copy of Resistance, I swapped the case with Metal Gear Solid 4 (which didn't have a GH version at the time), because the red case looks pretty awesome with MGS4's black and red design.

So now whenever I get a GH version of a game, I'll typically look for something else in my collection that would look cool with a red case, and swap. Dante's Inferno, Mirror's Edge, and especially Red Dead Redemption are other games that look really neat with red cases, and I think I'm gonna try it out with the two Dragon Age games as well.

I don't bother if there's artwork on the inside though (Mafia 2, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, God of War 3, etc.)

I dont really care what it is in. As long as it holds the game and manual I am fine with it.

yeah I don't worry about what the game case looks like, just give me a good game and it can be wrapped in my little pony toilet paper for all I care

I've never seen a red case, all of our cases are clear. Except platinum ones, which are a dodgy silvery colour and look disgusting.

I do not do this, because I am not so anal-retentive as to be bothered by the color plastic in which my game disks are housed.

That said, however you choose to decorate/organize your collection is entirely up to you. Go nuts.

The platinum cases look disgusting. I prefer to pay more for the normal case or just forget about the game. It's odd, but they just ruin my game pile.

We don't have the red PS3 cases over here in England we have these instead.



Personally i perfer these more than the US red cases but i do think they are still pretty ugly though especially because of the yellow on it.

Like other people from the UK have said, we have Platinum cases over here, cast in a grey/silver colour. To be honest, I don't mind them, but I do prefer the old blue cases from the PS2 era.

Also part of the UK platinum group. I honestly can't stand them, I always try to buy the original version of the game, or else I just don't bother. Can't stand how ugly the platinum cases and covers look. Usually they don't bother with cd artwork for those releases either.

I like the red cases far more than what they do in Europe or what they do anywhere with Xbox 360 platinum hits. I'm really not digging the platinum hit front cover while I don't really care about the colour of the case for PS3 as long as the design is otherwise clean.

The UK PSP classics look ugly and cheap as well.
I also have an Asian copy of Afrika under The Best Sellers moniker which isn't all that hot.
