    Default Original Xbox Game Case Colors

    Hello there,

    I have got a bunch of Xbox games that may or may not be previous rentals, but I have noticed that some of the Xbox games have black cases. Again, since I did not buy these new, perhaps they were just switched at some point?

    Does anybody know if any original Xbox games came with black cases (instead of the green ones). I know that Platinum Hits games came in the grey ones. Is there any other colors out there that I am missing?

    I found this huge collection picture here: http://nxeassets.xbox.com/shaxam/020...lection_lg.JPG

    But I can't make any black cases out, but perhaps they were in some of the slip-cover cases? Can anybody confirm/deny?

    If memory serves me correctly; I think that all of them were in green cases save platinum hits. Unless you count the few steel book case cames like Doom 3 limited edition.

    I'm pretty sure that those are just swapped out cases. The only non-green XBOX cases that I know of are the silver Platinum Hits ones, and the metal special release cases, like HALO 2 Limited Edition, and Doom 3.

    Often stores give game a generic DVD case. That's all you got. Xbox was only green & silver cases.



    Life!? ... What console is that on?

    It would probably be cheaper to pick up some cheap sports titles and swap them out. That's been my plan...
