Holy shit, My Weight Loss Coach may usher boxart into a new era of laziness. Years from now it will be remembered as what started the "including the system on the boxart" craze for dumb non-games for which publishers don't even have enough faith in the target audience to know what system they are buying the game for.

Way to go Ubisoft.

Izuna2 and Chocobo boxarts looking very nice. I'm glad they decided to go with the artwork from the JP box for choco.

Izuna 2 and Chocobo -

Guitar Hero - WTF

Hero of Legend · Apr 18, 2008

Comparing both boxes of Chocobo, I like the NA box better actually, the background is just gorgeous IMO!

THIS is one of the best GAME COVER I have ever seen. Just shows that the game has aged just like Solid Snake. And we all are aging as the time goes by.

This Cover is just amazing.

Urgh. I don't hold out much hope for this. It's by Eurocom who did the Athens game, which was utter shit.

If it had been STUFFZ, it might have been real.

I don't want to start a war here, but 360 cases really clash with most covers. That green casing with white banner at the top pulls away from the box art itself. The PS3 one being black is barely noticeable on most cases and the Wii none is small enough and having the case be white makes it all smooth.

/pointless rant.

MS is conscious of that. Look at the Rock Band thread and find out how many people can't be bothered to read packages at the store and accidentally bought the wrong version of the game. People have become accustomed to the giant obnoxious banner to tell them it's a 360 title.

No one buying a PS3 version accidentally got the 360 one.

Wow. I would be super excited for the game if I knew the story didn't suck :-\

Very nice FFT boxart. I think I like it more than the JP box.

JaCy · May 1, 2008

That FFT cover looks great.

Holy crap! I'm definitely getting this even though the story sucks.

Even though it's simple I think the FFTA2 box looks really nice.

I would liked to have seen on the cover more elements from the game, like the Geckos, Raiden, Ocelot, Vamp, Meryl, etc.

Its thinking like this that leads to all the horrible overcluttered box arts.

All the MGS 4 box arts look awesome to me, just a matter of taste which you prefer.
