Whats your favorite game box?

For some reason I like the World Of WarCraft:Wrath Of The Litch king box

But before that was the Devil May Cry 3 box.

I like these.

FFVI because it's simple, and Amano's illustration on a plain white box makes it effective.


I like this cover for some reason. Game isn't that great though. I like that illustration of that blonde girl...because it's drawn well of course!:P

This one's kind of cool. I like anime artwork obviously.

I like this artist's sty-le It's really cool stuff.

Again, simple but effective.

Back in the day when Gameboy Color was still hip, I loved this game and the cover. Still do.:)

These are still two of my favorite games. I also love the boxes.


This is a cool RPG illustrative box. Still my favorite Tales game.


This box design works well too, especially with the 360's green trim.

I like the graphic design on this one.

George Kamitani's illustrations are awesome!

Those are just a few. I'm sure there are many more. But I've noticed something, Japanese box-art seems to have a more sensible and appealing aesthetic to them. I guess it's the anime-influenced illustrations. Most western game box art is very in your face and focuses more on realism. They're not bad but the ones that were most memorable to me and that still stands out most have been the box arts of past games I played.

All of these are great for a reason, Fallout 3 is simple but sums up the game perfectly and makes it stand out. Vesperia and MGS4 have great art work and I just love the style of the GTA boxes.

I have yet to see a piece of artwork better represent the game the box contains. I just wish I had a nice printer so I could replace that **** the NTSC version got and put the beautiful PAL one in the box.

As do I. Maybe we have a hand fetish? I like how the solitary hand reaches out from the box, as if for help, symbolizing some conflict (that your side is losing, obviously) that you're going to help solve, or atleast run away from (by shooting things...LOTS of things).
