PS1 fans quickly noticed the font that Taj-33 used for the spine of their customRed Dead Redemption 2case. The cover art remains mostly untouched from the originalRed Dead Redemption 2art,featuring Arthur Morganpointing a revolver. The gang thatRed Dead Redemption 2centers around is also included in this custom PlayStation case.
Red Dead Redemption 2fans who weren’t playing games when the original PlayStation released may be confused by its size. Cases for PlayStation andSega Dreamcast gamesback then were mostly like CD cases at the time. Video game cases today are larger than the disk contained within, whereas these PlayStation cases were roughly the size of a CD and many still came with game manuals.
Taj-33 says that they are a graphic design student and thisRed Dead Redemption 2case is a fun Summer project that they took on. Taj-33 intends to replace all of their PS4 and PS5 cases with these original PlayStation-inspired cases. ConsideringRed Dead Redemption 2the best game of all time, Taj-33 felt it was right to start with the Rockstar Games cowboy simulator.
Clearly a lifelong PlayStation fan, Taj-33 remembers the humble beginnings of the brand while playing modern titles. The Reddit user has also created PlayStation cases forBatman Arkham Knight,Ghost of Tsushima,Star Wars Battlefront 2, andUncharted 4. Taj-33 intends to share the full collection of PlayStation cases of modern titles in the near future.
While many fans of Taj-33’s PlayStation-inspiredRed Dead Redemption 2case praised their attention to detail and the creativity behind the idea. One Reddit user quickly went from congratulating Taj-33 for a job well done to insisting they portRed Dead Redemption 2to the PS1 next. Many fans also lamented the fact that cases have become so much larger than theoriginal PlayStation cases.
