I pride myself on keeping my game collection tidy, organised, and well-treated. However, there are times where I come to play a game and I'll find that the case has mysteriously been damaged without my knowledge or doing.
With the release of the Arrival DLC for Mass Effect 2 I naturally have picked up my copy of ME2 from my shelf to find that the plastic wrap that surrounds the box art has been damaged. This has puzzled as I have noticed this on a number of games that I treat with equal respect and do as much as I can to stop any possible damage from occuring.
So, I was wondering whether it was just that I have Gremlins in my household or whether this has happened to any of my fellow bombers.
Do your cases ever become damaged without you knowing?
Most of my games are piled on my bedroom floor. The rest are in cloth bags.
Both are in perfect condition. Basically, they don't get damaged because they don't get moved or stepped on. Since they're left untouched, there's no opportunity for damage.

Usually the problems that you describe, if I have those, it was from trying to tear off stickers when we first got the item. Maybe that's what you have going on too but didn't realize it because it's been a while?
But the dog-chewed cases are the worst :(
I sometimes leave my cases on the floor so it's bound to happen sooner or later, especially with those weak-ass cases they use now. It's not going to take much to crush one of those.
"Yes. They're called siblings. "
Heh, I make sure my siblings know their place with regards to my games!

"It could have been damaged by the games next to it being inserted and removed in too tight of a space. "
That's the most likely cause. Didn't really think about that.
Im the same way. I like keeping my games neat and all. But sometimes I care a little to much about the Jewl Cases and Plastic cases etc, that I find they get broken. Especially Oblivion. I played that game alot, I had to replace the case twice. Anyway, I find just not to keep em to tight together, and always make sure not to leave em on the ground. And usauelly my brother will break some -_-
When I bought Bulletstorm the case pretty much crumbled into my hands when taking the plastic wrap off.
