since we decided to go with the old way, meaning one thread each month just like the "pick-up" threads, here's the new and not very improved boxart thread for august. no, these games mostly don't come out in august.

harvest moon devilish four:

GREAT THREAD.

iWii?

Lobster · (08-05-2007, 08:16 AM)

I thought this was a thread with Aussie boxarts with a making fun of Australia title. Great thread.

Edit:I hope DDR comes to Aus.

TemplaerDude · (08-05-2007, 08:19 AM)

they made a juiced 2?

CreepingDea7h · (08-05-2007, 08:20 AM)

I like this way better than the original box art. What exactly does this include? Is it Oblivion with all of the DLC, or just Oblivion + KotN + Shivering Isles?

The Zelda boxart is atleast on par with the Japanese one, if not better.

Mallika · (08-05-2007, 08:33 AM)

Luminous Arc, Heroes of Mana, and Rune Factory = so mine this month.

And in regards to the Phantom Hourglass boxart -- the first time I saw the English version boxart, I stared at it and was like 'Meh' ... but now seeing them in a comparison shot, I have to say that it has a nice charm to it and I think I like it a bit better than Japan's version. It reminds me of the boxart for Twilight Princess, though, with that brownish/sandish background.

Infernal Monkey · 12:37 PM

wuh oh

icecream · (08-05-2007, 08:51 AM)

WOW so many games coming out this m...

I'm amused at the Kengo boxart, didn't know it was coming. Luminous Arc, AC6 and FFT ones look really nice.

Smiles and Cries · (08-05-2007, 09:07 AM)

my god ds has so much crap what the hell is wrong with Natsume?

I'm so broke :(

PolyGone · 09:17 AM

Not all the stuff here is coming out this month. The NAPhantom Hourglass is expected to release on October 1, or thereabouts. There's a certain gaming site that lists August 2007 as the European release date, but I doubt that. Other places are listing October 19 as the European release date.

I liked Harvest Moon but this is insane

Also WTF @ Majesco!

Yoboman

Tactics has one of the best boxarts I've ever seen

Defuser · (08-05-2007, 10:09 AM)

FlyinJ · (08-05-2007, 10:11 AM)

You can't imagine how badly I wanted to put a pedobear reference in the game, but never dared to.
To this day I still wonder if Nintendo's approval process checks for "sensitive subjects" like this one: guess I won't be the one to find out by myself. ^^

I'm glad this is back to a monthly thread since I stopped caring about the other thread because it was too big.

That's a lot of Harvest Moon.

Also I didn't know there was a ATHF game coming out haha I might have to check it out.

It's a traditional jRPG for the PSP, and apparently a pretty good one.

ghostmind · (08-05-2007, 02:33 PM)

Not exactly the US version, but I think they will be pretty much the same...

Wario64 · (08-05-2007, 02:33 PM)

Holy crap, all these games come out this month? My wallet cries

rakka · (08-05-2007, 02:33 PM)

Very nice boxes for Mana, Tactics and Phantom Hourglass

No, only a couple of them. Thread is for recent new box arts or something like that.

Yuck. I'm not a fan of Singstar, but the original games' simplistic box style was a hell of a lot better than this.
