The main issue I have with the
Face Armor is that it creaks. The hinge makes a creaking noise when you open or close the top. The sound is not so much the issue as the possible underlying meaning. My fear is that the
Face Armor?s hinge may wear out faster than I?d like. I?ve tried stressing the hinge a bit, however, and other than the creaking sound, it seems to be just fine.
The Disc Jackets seem to do their job and take up the least space of any UMD protectors I?ve seen, but they may not give you as much peace of mind. PSibabe, for example, found that MadCatz? UMD Cases offered more reassurance. Then again, sometimes bulkier protection just seems safer. In the end, it?s a matter of personal preference.
