seeing the "survival horror" label at the bottom makes me really happy as its obviously a throwback to old boxarts. DMC5's JP cover has "stylish action" at the bottom too

Sure it looks good but it makes the game look like it's going to be like Silent Hill. Resident Evil 4 is 100% an action game and it needed a cover art that reflected that.

Shit covers honestly.

It's the most overused, lazy, uncreative shit you can imagine.

Already ruined by GC's player's choice banner. GameCube might be my favorite console to date but jesus fuck do I hate the NA player's choice banner and spine. Why didn't we get the objectively better silver one? It actually compliments the regular black spines.

Who cares if it looks good? I get that some cover art can be lazy in concept, but that logo mixed with the color choice looks great. I was mainly talking about how you think the RE2 cover looks bad. That shit is incredible.

So much memphis movement in this box, it's incredible really

David Bowie would put this shit on his wall

He's breaking through a wall for no reason, something that never happens in the game. I don't know why it's happening but I'll never forget this cover.

I still wish we had gotten these designs in the US. I don't really get why they were changed, honestly. They seem like they'd have fit our pop culture nicely. Maybe they weren't edgy/cool enough.

Feel free to post your own for critique

I REALLY liked that cover as a kid. For some reason, I thought there was a giant hole in the ground that Bowser was breathing into and Pikachu was jumping out of. I imagined how the rest of the fight would go down from that picture on the cover and who would win. The various character rectangles were nice additions as well. Truly, an early 2000s era boxart.

Path of Radiance is way better.

Mohawk Sonic is genuinely the worst design Sonic has had in his entire existence.
I'm happy they've basically buried its existence at this point.

Oh fuck, I remember that. I always thought that was just that the shows and stuff were low budget because they're just side stuff meant to sell the games.

You're telling me that was on purpose?

But did Japan ever get the version we got? The Japanese version of MM is like a beta version with shitty sound and missing features.

Hi IGN

ZOOM. ENHANCE.

Yep, this is by far my favorite cover art out of any video games.

Nevermind I see it now
