...it would be that smell you get when you take a brand new game and manual out of the box for the first time, and I do not mean those poncey DVD cases either. I mean real boxes! :)

I just opened my Call Of Duty 4 box again after a reformat and the smell is still there, I think I am in heaven.
 
You do know how crazy we sound? :p

That's not the worst of it, I've been sniffing all my latest games! The ones in metal cases seem to hold their scent quite well. I can't wait for Crysis to come tomorrow so I can smell it, who cares how slow it runs when it will smell oh so sweet! :D

LMFAO and I thought I was the only one who did that!! :eek: This is almost a reason in itself to buy new games!!

Nothing beats the smell of new game DVD case or the box of a new GFX or mobo, I also love the smell of new mobo...

I'm sure we are not alone. If we are then men in white coats will arrive shortly. :D

You are right, I just opened my S.T.A.L.K.E.R. tin to have a sniff and it still smells new. That is probably because it has not been opened since I bought it though, I hated it.

Boxes smell miles better than DVD cases, blasphemer! :p

PC component boxes do smell nice, but it can't compete with games!

They aint getting me! :cool:

I did exactly the same thing :eek: That thing is like a giant store of superbly smelling goodness. About the only goodness there is in there though, I'll agree :p

I don't have any boxes as nothing comes in them anymore really. But the metal tins are fantastic!

Hmm, When i think off all the smells i like. Freshly baked bread, coffee, onions being fried and talcum powder on my children after bathing i would say new games smells were up there with blue stratus and hi karate.

Enjoy your new jackets lads.
