How coem in America you guys still get the big PC game boxes with the small disc case inside?

It was like that here too but now tis like in a DVD case like console games but in America they kept the old boxes, why is it different?

Stupid question but I wanna know...I'm bored :o

yeah. i'd say *most* games come in small boxes now. its better for the environment, and cheaper for the publishers.

Because in America, we have more retail floorspace per capita!

And almost all games come in miniature boxes now, anyway.

My pocket pc, which is the size of my hand, came in a box big enough for a lawnmower.

Yep, who wants a DVD box for PC games? No posters for you then.

The ps box was a mini box. Not a big box. You might still call it a big box, I don't know.
