Default [Poll] Do you collect G1 or G2 steelbooks?

Title says it all

Recently I was surprised to learn how many dedicated G1 collectors there were on here.

I really thought there were an almost even number of PS3 and xbox collectors and therefore assumed the steelbook collecting would be about the same.

Now I'm not so sure

I am a G2 collector first and foremost. I dabble in G1's but that's just due to studios/developers not giving us enough G2 steelies

So what type of steelbook collector are you?

Answer the poll and feel free to comment on your collecting below

The More You Know:

G1 - Refers to Generation 1 sized cases, DVD/Xbox 360 sized cases

G2 - Refers to Generation 2 sized cases, Blu-ray/PS3 sized cases

(I realize there is probably a thread for this somewhere but if there is, I don't think making a new one is a bad idea)

I don't tend to hunt down steelbooks as I'm not a dedicated steelbook collector, but I do buy them if and when I see/like them.

I've gotten more into steelbooks recently, but still just collect for both G1 and G2.

Games tend to be mainly G1, with the occasional G2 PS3 release.

Movies, majority are G2 since I mainly buy on Bluray, and occasionally a G1 if I see one cheap, or a bluray copy isn't available xx

I guess what I am really asking about is which do you prefer given the choice?

Given the same steelbook in both sizes, I have yet to find one that I don't like better in G2 form

Now granted differences are usually minor at best but that's my opinion

So then no favorite size?

I also own both a PS3 and Xbox and am curious how you decide what game to get for what console?

I mostly play on PS3 so usually get it for that but there are some games that are on both that I get for xbox
