Hero's Shade:
Actually, the CD case art for the PS1 games weren't horizontal, but vertical. Even you should've known that.

I mean, I have no problems with it, but it looks too much like the PS2 template, only with the 2 removed from the Playstation logo at the top.

Parity I guess.. This way you can have PS and PS2 games side by side and they would look similar.
I personally like the horizontal a lot better than vertical cuz it fits the original (CD CASE) art a lot better.

Those are probably the two biggest reasons I prefer the Horizontal over the vertical style.

Yes.. true that the original covers have the playstation name in a vertical form, but the art itself when transplanted to a DVD case, fits a lot better in horizontal form.

5.5x5.75in for a standard CD Jewel Case, even with the "vertical" Playstatation bar, I would assume it's easier to convert a cover to a horizontal cover than a vertical, as there is less skewing of the image that way.
I mean, we're already messing the initial dimensions up, but considering how much farther you skew the Height vs Width on a veritcal compared to a horizontal IMO adds up.

PAL games are horizontal
