Wow, that Heavy Rain cover is a bummer. Chick with huge tits in a low cut tanktop in an attempt to sell more copies, and other characters randomly blended in the background. No subtlety in sight. I'm still excited about playing the game itself, but man, that cover is ASS.

It was a Brash Entertainment project in 2008. They went bankrupt, so Prison Break was delayed several times I guess.

Ridley327 · Jan 14, 2010

I figured that it was a Brash remnant, but the question still stands. :lol

I didnt realized this was confirmed for the US already

I think they need to go all the way with the new box art, and put a sticker on the cover pointing at her boobs that says, "see these babies fully exposed!!!"

Kifimbo · Jan 15, 2010

New one today.

I liked the screenshots of the game. If the execution is right I might even rent it

Pal version of the game... seems final. First title in the main numbered releases since VII that has anything other than just the logo on a white background. It seems they're now going for the generic character render, like most (all?) the US releases... woohoo!

PS3

X360

Generic-ness FTL!

edit: I've just realized this thread may be just for American releases. I apologize if so... either way, it seems the US is getting the same cover.

I think it's fantastic. Simple, sure, but it beats the awful boxart with just the logo.

I sure hope that Yakuza 3 cover is just a placeholder (that or Europe gets a better one). That's awful.

Just announced today, the Wii version's by some company called Impulse Games, who's name seems to be owned by Left Field, they only did two racing games prior and seem to be, unsurprisingly, terrible. Firebrand's doing the DS version.

Why can't he run by foot like he's supposed to? He's not known for driving! FFFFFFFF.

Also WTF they changed the Nick logo? That orange splat was iconic!

They changed everything. It's all sleek and Apple-ish now.

Remember this?

Now it's all like this.

Different shades of orange, different fonts. I fail to see your point.

They just look similar, never mind then.

Yeah, I remember reading at the time that they did it to get some sort of brand unity. They rebranded all of their networks under the 'Nick' umbrella (so, say, The N became TeenNick and Noggin became Nick Jr), so they needed a logo that would make it easy to utilize across several networks.

Even Nick at Nite changed logos to match the new rebranding.

GuardianE · Jan 19, 2010

The new Heavy Rain cover looks like a really dramatic wet T-shirt contest.

I much preferred the old one.

Wel c'mon guys, it's not like this game was ever gonna sell to anyone except the obsessive fans on the Internet who want it in English anyway.

Diablohead · Jan 20, 2010

Dark Octave said:

Jill, as the gold edition brings 2 new playable chapters (one being a flashback) and both feature Jill in them.

kenta · Jan 22, 2010

It's looking like this is final:

Slightly tweaked from the placeholder that's been everywhere. Not quite as cool as the other box art floating around but I'm okay with it

RadioHeadAche · Jan 22, 2010

The Yakuza 3 art is so boring.

AniHawk · Jan 22, 2010

Dear God,

I know you don't exist, but please tell the dumb people who make box arts to stop making box art with 3D rendered characters, the one guy holding a gun, shitloads of animals from the first results on google images, or the anime cast of Friends.

Thanks.
