Xbox One, PS4 box art revealed?

Official Battlefield 4 site posts what appear to be cover designs for next-gen games.

The official Battlefield 4 website (via Kotaku) has posted what appears to be Xbox One and PlayStation 4 box art designs.

It is possible that the images in question are mock-ups made by Electronic Arts, as neither Microsoft nor Sony have released official designs as of yet.

If the images are indeed genuine, it means Microsoft is carrying over its familiar green-hued design, while Sony is shifting to a new blue theme similar to its PlayStation Vita line.

The Xbox One and PS4 are due out later this year, though pricing information and specific release dates have not been divulged.

Pick your side between the PS4 and the Xbox One now in the Battle of the Next Gen!

Yeah, the PS4 is going to stomp Xbox this time round. What they're doing with it is honestly disgusting. Charges for used games? Registered games and online 24/7? When they shut the servers down 10 years after it's released, you'll never be able to play those games again.

Ps3 (if allowed) could probably handle the same ps4 games

@Travis Sidney Yeah, and my super nintendo can play PS4/XBO games too, lol. I suppose you never really though that inside the box, there is components? haha.

Xbox got as good as the ps3 And the ps4 is the ps3 with a better graphics engine not worth a new buy, plus i heard its games will be all digital

Im was with microsoft for a longg time, but the ps4 wins the console battle next gen. This is coming from someone who isnt a stereotypical one sided opinion but a conclusion i have come to from the facts

Thought i'd show you guys the actual differences between the two. both are different in size, one actually took effort where as the other didn't.. Irony about the two cases is that they remind me of their conference shows.. 

Can you guess out of the two companies that put more quality into their performances? It shows not only in their reveals, but also the box layout itself.

These should be just temporary design, esp. the XBOX ONE one

@sgt_F79 Why are people so married to packaging? Everything doesn't need the Collector's Edition treatment. After-all, most of its time will be spent on a shelf, drawer or inside an entertainment center cabinet.

@styymy @sgt_F79 If packaging or design for that matter didn't mean anything, we wouldn't need graphic designers now would we?

@styymy @sgt_F79 Yeah, but that doesn't mean they should just create some extremely basic thing with paint. 

This looks dull. I'm expecting the box to tell me it's the next generation consoles. Not just: here's the name of the console on their respective color schemes.

I don't wanna be a jerk, but I am laughing. XD Can someone raise their hand if they found this, in any way, interesting? This is literally an article, devoted to a standard game box with the already-known logos on top. Waiting for...
"Exclusive! The start-up sound, revealed!"

They both look kind off generic. I'm expecting a little more flash.

You can really see with the shared GDDR5 memory the PS4 box has much higher fps and also a high resolution, crystal clear picture. Whereas the xbox and its ddr3 is only displaying 30fps and a horrible green outline around the edges of the screen.

They both kinda look like game covers that Gamestop might use for games in the bargain bin.

I know that is defiantly Xbox One's cover if you look closely at a video Xbox made they show a box with that

Honestly does it even matter. They're cases for our games. As long as my game is safe it could look like crap and I wouldn't care

I feel like it's way too basic of a design for both cases. I bet they'll get updated...

@pycho22solid I believe they eventually want to push towards a fully digital market, so making basic or less attractive box art would be a step towards accomplishing this as less people would feel compelled to collect the boxes. I think they're also making it so that once you install the game the disc is useless, another step towards fully digital, the transition won't be immediate but in small steps like this
