very nice dude!
I especially like the defender of the empire expansion box.
The old big boxes just couldn't be beat. Back when Dev and Publisher cared about their products. I actually loved the little touches. The book that came with Tie Fighter floppy, The spiral bound Manuals complete with story elements, The Color maps, etc.
Today, they just shove you a CD with an insert for a manual. Sad.
*off*
I would like to see a "what's inside the box" thread with photos (CD,manual,extras)

all of them :)
that would be quite an undertaking lol
I'd post a picture but alas all my cardboard boxes went into the trash or recycled over the years due to them taking up so much space.. I wish I still had my StarCraft big box at least... I got the Hydralisk cover ^^ (the initial release covers were awesome imo) but my oldest games are the Jill of the Jungle Trilogy, Xargon, and Zone 66 all from Epic Megagames (Before UT!) although I admit that I had picked them up between 1995-1998 when I was still running on a 486-66 (ended up running that system til about 2000 when my dad got a few new computers ^^) Wal-mart was selling them for $1 for a while but as their supply dwindled they dropped them further down to 10c so I grabbed up all the old titles I could that I thought looked decent (including Ken's Labrynth) But to note the games that started my gaming on the PC were as follows : Crystal Caves Shareware ep., Jill of the Jungle Shareware, Doom Shareware, King's Quest V and Battle Isle. (Battle Isle was the first non-"edutainment" title that my parents bought me but I enjoyed KQ5 too but never finished it until around 96 or 97)
Oh yeah... and I think my game collection is somewhere in the 500 range with about 150 CDs and DVDs but I've lately mostly been going digital (93 of the total is Xbox 360 games)
And dang it! I want my copies of Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2 back :P lol

I wish this was my setup...

Sexy...
Here ya go. The ones you can't see are Darwinia, Devil May Cry 4 and The Witcher: EE. For the record I did not buy Silent Hunter 5. :)
Also got a few without boxes: Driver, Stronghold, Duke 3D, Grim Fandango. And a couple DS games: Ninja Gaiden, Hotel Dusk, and a PS2 game: Xenosaga Ep. 1.

I think Im just jealous that he has a copy of System Shock and System Shock 2 with the boxes heh I have a copy of System Shock 2 but not sure if it works (havnt pulled it out in a while but I have completed it once) and if you want bad along with all the computer games I have... I have about 60 complete series of anime on DVD..... quite a few in thin pak sets (60 was the last count I did including only the complete series' that I own)
I think I might have around 5 to 600 PC games on CD. If you take into account the digital download stuff maybe another 80.
I own original Nintendo, 3DO, Dreamcast, XBOX, 360. You can guess how many games I have for each of them. I use to have a bunch more but I gave it away or sold it and kept the best stuff.
I love the Power Glove, It's so bad!

Your RPG shelf...
I drool. I count six games I'd consider in my "top of the top most wanted" list.
Nice collection.
