Genuinely Good Looking Box Art

[mireko]

Spoiler: Wip3out. Because fuck yeah, minimalism.

Spoiler: Tales of Graces F covers (reversible), very colorful/pastel. Maybe not for everyone, but I love it.

Spoiler: Borderlands. Sets the tone.

Spoiler: Maken Shao. Shame they didn't keep the kanji for the EU release.

[sub]I also like the old, simple Final Fantasy covers. That is, the Japanese/European "white background + logo" ones. So much better than the American "HEY LOOK HERE ARE SOME CHARACTERS" covers.[/sub]

EDIT: Almost forgot to add the cover for the first Wipeout game.

Spoiler: Wipeout

Catherine Xbox 360 box art is pretty awesome.

Spoiler

They have a different one for the PS3 version:

Though I think I like the 360 one better.

Duke nukem: Balls of steel edition. Ok I won, everybody leave theres nothing to see here...

I thought the Balls of Steel Edition [http://www.ebgames.com.au/xbox360-153212-Duke-Nukem-Forever-Balls-of-Steel-Edition-Xbox-360] had the same cover as the standard edition. Unless of course you're talking about the box it comes in.

Spoiler: C'mon, really? Nobodies brought this up yet?

Spoiler: And what about this little gem?

BHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Seriously, though. The first one is really good.

Is anyone besides me really sick of the Orange and Blue contrast on box art?

I mean just out of the games listed on the first page, 11 of them have the Blue and Orange contrast (and I'm not counting the reposts of games)!

Anyway, for my money I've always thought that Shadow of the Colossus has the best box art.

FreeSpace's box art, I love the contrast between white and space.

Spoiler

Amnesia: The Dark Descent (the version Frictional made and never got to use)

Spoiler

Penumbra also had some amazing box art.

Spoiler

Vivisector: Beast Inside

Spoiler

Cryostasis: The Sleep of Reason

There's been a lot of cool box art over the years... So, here's just 2 that haven't been mentioned.

Spoiler: Wet

I mean, fine, Ruby's sexy, but that's got graphic style

Spoiler: Afro Samurai

You have to admit, it's cool.

P.S. I'm pretty fond of several off the list, particularly Boarderlands...

Just looked through my collection. Here's what stood out:

Dragon Age Origins(As stated in the OP)

Spoiler: Fable 3 collector's edition

Spoiler: Dead Space

And easily the best...

Spoiler: Left 4 Dead

All the other games were usually just some guy either staring into the camera, or fighting things, or staring while a bunch of crap went on in the background.

And most of those above could use work. It makes me sad that more time isn't given to box art...

I see someone is a hand person...<.<

OT: I'm quite fond of Silent Hill 2's box art...

Spoiler

and this version of Resident Evil 4...

YES The Homeworld box art was brilliant. Thank you for posting it. :3 Saves me the trouble.

Spoiler: Dark Crusade

Every damn DoW cover. The one for Reach isn't shabby either.
