Tell GR: What's Your Favorite Box Art?

Posted on Tuesday, April 24 @ 16:58:00 Eastern by

This is not my favorite box art. I hate this box art. I'm sure the disc inside is fine and the game on that is awesome, but this is ugly, ugly box art. So let's talk about some awesome box art instead! I love this, and this, and this. I also love this, and don't forget this:

    Blizzard's portrait box art for Warcraft III and Starcraft II is drop dead gorgeous, but it's important to give credit to the RTS studio that started it all:

    Started the Profile headshot box art, not the RTS base-building genre (that honor would go to Dune II).

    I love the box art for Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2 and SW:TOR for having that original trilogy movie poster style/feel and for showing off a lot of stuff that is actually in the games. Special mention goes to the reversible Mass Effect 3 cover (not for the art itself though).

    Yoshitaka Amano's line art on the front of all the Final Fantasy games is one of my favorite parts. This cover from 8 is great. finalfantasyworld.net/Compendium/FinalFantasyVIII/Img/FF8_Lo​go.png
