What? It's the US box. I got that one specifically because the European version is localised with Dutch voice acting, which I hate. It doesn't have a folded sheath, though. It does have this flap on the front which you can open like a page of a book, is that what you mean?

You have no right to to call us pigs just because we are not as anal as you.
To be honest, I am only tidy because of my Army background - all those frickin' room inspections!! Kinda stays with ya...so if the flat is in a mess, 9 times out of 10 it'll be our lass

Anyhoo, tidyness is next to godliness. Everyone has their own ways of doing things and we should not have a go at them for it.

My kids will be having room inspections when I have them (LOL....not really, but there was this dude in the UK (on a series called "Wife Swap") who had two kids and was sooooooo sad and anal, he forced his kids to have a proper "stand by your beds" room inspection, every month. What a saddo!!! And he wasnt even ex-forces??!!

Anyway, its late and I have a doctors appointment at 8.40am....NN all sweet dreams

No, I actually meant one of those thin cardboard boxes, which are covering another box, which, if you are lucky, is of good quality. If you are not lucky, it is brown post-packet-like cardboard.

I bought these on Ebay, by the way. I had to look hard for that WCIV box.

I'd post a photo in the vain hope of trumping your collection, but the huge stack of boxes would collapse on top of me. You don't have Yoda Stories, though ... Or Heimdall. Or Myst. Or A-Train...

Oh, no. It's not one of those slip-over boxes. It's just a normal cardboard box. Same material as the majority of my boxes. These two Space Quest boxes are the only slip-over boxes I have.

Hehe, my collection isn't very big. I've seen pictures here from people who have literally meters of shelves running through their rooms crammed with games. And I'm very jealous of that LucasArts Museum guy, I think his name is Freddy. And Eric, with his nice LucasArts and Sierra collection. Which reminds me, I still really need to find a boxed version of Zak McKracken!

Yoda Stories is a game I'd probably like to add to my collection too, but the other games you mentioned aren't really on my list. Especially not Myst

Oh. My. God! I just realized that it is blasphemous to think that Funcom would allow to have "The Longest Journey" published in cheap slip over box.


Can you forgive me? Forgive me, oh great Ragnar, for I have spoken blasphemous of the prophecy!
