They're compressed.

Aaaah. Yeah, you're right.

Apologies for being an asshole, man. Carry on.

 

[xxracerxx]

Not for the most important one they don't:

 

[Andrefpvs]

This changes EVERYTHING.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

Wow. How did all these people from IGN find this website?!

 

[GDJustin]

Wow. How did all these people from IGN find this website?!

Google Reader.

 

[DaBoss]

So it doesn't matter that it is JPEG? That's pretty cool.

 

[Whools]

I don't work at IGN, am I allowed to post in this thread?

 

[Portugeezer]

Works for the N64 games, nice.

Works as in gets you bigger versions, but those are highly compressed.

Probably only works for newer games from this generation.

So it doesn't matter that it is JPEG? That's pretty cool.

You can have high quality jpg. So no it doesn't matter, but a bmp probably the best regardless.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

Google Reader.

I guess we all had to go somewhere.

 

[Boss Man]

Should we turn this thread into "Top 10 Box Arts" or "Top 10 URL Tricks"?

 

[Hero of Legend]

So it doesn't matter that it is JPEG? That's pretty cool.

There is software that can do flawless JPG conversion.

 

[alr1ght]

You can get most of these on amazon. You're not going to get high quality boxes anywhere except straight from the publishers/press site.

 

[Mononoke]

In case anyone wants to know the Amazon trick, same thing really.

Click the box until you have it bigger, right click, copy the URL...

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81hlSLQEeoL._SL1500_.jpg

And remove _SL1500_.

So far, the Amazon ones have looked worse. Either the color is too saturated or de-saturated.

 

[Whools]

It's not possible one person happened to see the thread and told all the rest of us to come on in, because we work in an office together.

Oh, so only Goldfarb was slacking off on gaf, carry on Justin, Brian, Mitch et al.

 

[McSpidey]

Does this trick work on reviews?

 

[Rebel Leader]

someone give me a xenoblade one

 

[Flarin]

BAZAM!

Spoiler

Get it yourself next time ;P

 

[Andrefpvs]

omg this is so good.

 

[Mononoke]

Since we have the crew from IGN here, how about we discuss the quality of Up At Noon?

 

[Hero of Legend]

Done my Sonic Gens Wii U mock-up:

 

[dragonbane]

Haha IGN infiltrating GAF. Amazing

 

[Rebel Leader]

BAZAM!

Spoiler

Get it yourself next time ;P

[TheRealTalker]

Done my Sonic Gens Wii U mock-up:

beautiful

 

[Flarin]

Ohhai Catherine.

Fair enough

 

[hayguyz]

and then IGN started blocking image leechers and NeoGAF was flooded with goatse

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Haha IGN infiltrating GAF. Amazing

Which vestibule did they use to get here?

 

[TimmiT]

Just tried Gens 360:



Great! Been looking for a great-quality one, now I can make a Wii U mockup. Google-fu failed me after searching for days.

[shameless advertising]Pffffffffft[/shameless advertising]

 

[lmpaler]

The important thing I get from this thread is that apparently everybody at IGN is browsing GAF instead of working. :lol

Lol. This.

I wish I worked for IGN, making the skrilla and letting GAF entertain me. Of course then there is Naomi...I loves her

 

[Hero of Legend]

beautiful

Thank you! Just uploaded it to VGBoxart, now together with my SA3 Wii U mock-up.

 

[Hero of Legend]

[shameless advertising]Pffffffffft[/shameless advertising]

Compressed and no E rating (latter easily edited XD).

I'll take smaller (but still nicely large) and artifact-free images any day.

Edit: Oops, dp...

 

[antitrop]

Haha, I was just thinking the same thing.

They all clearly follow @NeoGAFNewThreads on Twitter.

 

[shira]

I work here and I didn't even know this.

Holy shit. Me neither. Now get back to work, Goldfarb.

Hey guys!

a triology of ign editors hard at work

 

[jaypah]

They all clearly follow @NeoGAFNewThreads on Twitter.

IGN is actually Wario. Sorry to spoil the twist.

 

[GDJustin]

a triology of ign editors hard at work

Poor mitch.

 

[Hero of Legend]

The IGN editor talk is kinda derailing. :/ I think more posts are about them than the boxes.

 

[Yawnier]

Very neat discovery OP. I can see it being useful to some people.

 

[DaBoss]

You can have high quality jpg. So no it doesn't matter, but a bmp probably the best regardless.

There is software that can do flawless JPG conversion.

I knew you can do HQ jpg, but I always thought there was some minimal compression always there. That is nice to know.

 

[Flarin]

Hey Hero of Legend, how did you figure this out? Just messing around with URLs?

 

[Hero of Legend]

Hey Hero of Legend, how did you figure this out? Just messing around with URLs?

Found IGN's HQ Melee box on Google Images and figured it out from there.

 

[bobbychalkers]

AWW YEAH!

 

[Sigismundo]

I'm pretty sure this isn't gonna work with PS1 boxes.

 

[iNvid02]

decent quality but nothing like a PSD file

 

[smurfx]

IGN

Invading Gaf NOW.

even ign people know gaf is the superior message board.

 

[Toppot]

This will come in very handy. Hero of Legend indeed!

<3

 

[Vashetti]

who needs next gen now when we can enjoy all this high res cover art

 

[benny_a]

Since we have the crew from IGN here, how about we discuss the quality of Up At Noon?

You stole my joke!

I was going with:
"This thread is funnier than any episode of Up At Noon?"

:/

Spoiler

The latest interview was good

 

[ThanksVision]

Does this trick work on reviews?

Underrated post

 

[Dug]

Beautfiul.

 

[Frodo]

AWW YEAH!

Guy in black on the right is playing a Game & Watch. lol

 

[Face it Tiger..]

How do you get the last of us' one?

Edit: got it.
