Official Petition Against the Xbox 360 ECO-BOX for Halo Anniversary

343,

Please, please do not ship Halo Anniversary in an ECO-BOX. They break so easily and are just a bad idea. Reach didn’t come in an ECO-BOX and I’m glad it didn’t. In fact what would be even better would be to ship Anniversary in the old thick green original xbox game cases. But most importantly DO NOT SHIP ANNIVERSARY IN AN ECO-BOX!
Thanks

The hell is an eco box?

These cases HOLY COW I’M TYPING PUPLE

The cases that make it feel like your breaking your disc when you taking it out of the case. I hate them too.

But think of the cause bro. ](http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/105/1050097p1.html)

Actually, I kind of wish they would just send them out in original Xbox cases. =/

Two of my copies of Reach cracked due to not being able to get them out of their cases and one of my copies of Halo 3 cracked from not being able to get it out of its case either. I finally just started putting all my games into a CD organizer from being paranoid of the two different types of 360 cases. I think the only one I haven’t had a problem with has been ones for games like Dead Space 2 or ODST where two discs had to be integrated into one case by shortening the center plastic fasteners.

Really, I wish Microsoft would figure something out with this if they aren’t going to replace them if they break from it, especially if it happens within a 15-day time period of buying the game.

I can’t say anything because I personally have no experience with these cases. There are definitely more efficient ways to save packing material without affecting the durablity of the case. I’m all for protecting enviroment, but the back of the case right at where the disk is, is the last place you should remove the plastic.

I say that they could have made a bit more research and came up with a better idea, but that’s all I can say because as I stated, I have no experience with these cases.

Oh gawd, those thing are so flimsy…

I hate them too, they make me want to rage.

Eco box my yoink its only an eco box if it lasts longer, We will see. Misrepresenting legit environmental concerns for a pure profit motive sucks b~@#* on so many levels.

Agreed, I abhor those flimsy eco-cases. I wish they would have switched to using the smaller cases used with Blu-ray/HD-DVD’s for 360 games. They are smaller and thus use less plastic, but are also nice and sturdy.

Then just buy the game then put the contents in a spare 360 box.

Problem solved.

My Black Ops came in and ECO-BOX and it broke. I hate them so much.

You’re petition probably isn’t going to do much.

This is why we can’t have nice planets…

Even though I don’t really like them, i’m actually not going to care that much because I added an extra disc slot in my Reach case for convenience :stuck_out_tongue:

o.o" ive never really realized they caused issues. then again i dont think i have any games that i take out of the case often enough that use those cases. i have like 3 or 4 i think.

I can dig it OP.

I have no problem with eco-boxes. Maybe YOU need to take better care of your games and their cases?

Yeah, damn you Microsoft, how dare you try to minimalise your waste? Who cares if my grandchildren won’t have a planet to live on, I want sturdy cases for my xbox 360 games!
