Planetside's jewel case

Terrible! It's a sheet of cardboard with plastic stick on foam dots to hold the CDs in place. It's by far the worst jewel case ever.

[sarcasm]THATS IT!!! I am not buying this game! Sure its fun, sure it is innovative, but without a decent jewel case, it is worthless!!!![/sarcasm]

I know you where just passing on information, I am just giving you a rough time.

I don't care if it's in a paper bag!!!!

Have sexy jewel case with a CD inside that was burned 2 months ago.

- versus -

Have an up-to-date CD (for the most part) at release date.

(You can put it in your own jewel case)

Until a game wraps itself in a playboy centerfold I'll keep buying em' for the content, not the jewl case.

EDITED for sounding WAY harsher than intended

While I agree that the jewel case isn't that big of an issue, one would hope that for $50, they could have forked out the extra quarter for a plastic jewel case.

Thats a upgrade from what they sent the beta cd in

, but the game made up for it

I concur.

Not that it would stop me from buying the game

Methinks this whole "innovative" approach to the game is getting a wee bit outta hand

It's still not as bad as UT2K3 was. The 3 disk came in 3 paper sleeves that where white.

this was brought up a couple of weeks ago, whats in the box good manual or anything special ( doubt it )

Streamline · 2003-05-21, 02:36 AM

pst... if you were in beta. All you need is the key. You don't even have to open the plastic wrapper around the jewel. All i did is slide the jewel out of the box. Input the new key. The slid it back in and put the box on a self with the rest of my games. I think your making something out of nothing.

TheAngelOfWar · 2003-05-21, 03:13 AM

heh, i actually preferred the beta disc packing. if they are gonna go cheap, go all out. at least the beta looked important in the packvelope. this fake cardboard POS screams of "we tried but we dont really give a fuck, we got your $50"

CDs came out of the case and into a folder the minute I opened the box, the case was subsequently trashed. I couldn't give a shit about the jewel case. What I do care about is the shitty manual! I was hoping for some good toilet reading >:/
