I can kind of see this point...

Though having custom covers on games is something other people have been doing for a while now. Plus if they all have the same kind of cover they blend together nicer on the shelf. It kind of bugs me that some of my games have slip covers, and some of them have the older PS3 logo on the side... It'd be nice to have them all similar.

My thoughts exactly, although these are unofficial, I see them more for their protective qualities. Although I am majorly focusing on aesthetics for my own personal reasons. Oh and BTW I forgot to include I am making inFamous 1 and 2 sleeves in the first batch because I love theses games. The cover is going to have a comic book panel type thing going on, with each pannel a major event in the game. They will be matching in color scheme.

Oooh, I quite like the sound of these, and I can't wait to see what you turn out! Is it going to be like the cover of the inFamous 1 SE? That is my favorite inFamous cover...

Nice work. But what I try to do is scam a 'promo copy' on display from the likes of EB Games [if they have any], I try to do that for games that come in digipaks or the the likes of the Batman games. It may not be the official cover but at least I won't have to touch my digitpak or go through the CE just to get the disc from it. I have a couple of spare game covers when I bought those PSN cards, but I don't think they provide case covers for them any longer...just voucher cards now.

Recently, I ordered NBA 2k12...they had that offer to choose an extra variant cover for the game, I chose Bird. But due to some technical fault, those who preorder offered their customers ALL 3 cover available!!
Now I have all three covers, but just the one game

Nice! over here Eb games is impossible to deal with. I prefer amazon.com games come sealed and with English only on the case, and in most cases include inside box art.

Truly I'm working on a whole initial batch. They would've be done if Batman AC didn't come out, it took all my free time btw its an awesome game(worthy of the hype). I just competed the story so I'm going to take a break from Batman AC and get to photoshoping hardcore.
