Does anyone else love these? I pretty much always flip them over because I'm just so happy they give me the option. I seem to be spotting it more lately.
What are some of your favourite reversible game covers?
I really like the Fairy Fencer F one

There are a few others that have it too. Omega Quintet, Lord of Magna, Arcana Heart 3, Story of Seasons has a spot the difference game, a few others. Even Fallout 4 has one it seems!
Xenoblade and MGS: Ground Zeroes.

We actually had different artwork for Xenoblade.
The only one I knew about was Mass Effect. but I've never played it
I can honestly say I did not realise this was a thing.

when did this start
Same. Except I have played it.Quote:

I'll have to check my PS3 games more closely in case there are more variations lurking around. I didn't know about the option for Ground Zeroes, for instance.
If I ever play the Mass Effect series I expect I'll make the cover match my chosen Shepard.
I always check my covers on games and change to the other cover if the option is there. I usually think it looks better. I can't think of good examples though because I forget after a while that the cover I always see on my games is not the only one.
Europe gets the short straw as usual. TTT2 has a reverse, but not in Europe. Xenoblade has a reverse cover, but it's just a 3D render, and there's no text on the spine.
I've heard there is a reverse cover on FF13 too, but I couldn't see anything on my copy.
I'm bored so I'm looking through my games now.
Simple & Boring
GTA V
Bayonetta
Detailed but basically just art of an action scene
Uncharted 3
Uncharted 2
Actually looks like an alternative cover
Duke Nukem Forever
Very similar to the main cover
Resistance 3
Nothing
Arkham City
FFXIII
FIFA 10
RE5
Army of Two
Assassin's Creed Heritage Collection
FFXIII-2
Tomb Raider
Far Cry 2
Far Cry 3
Far Cry 4
FFXIV:ARR - CE
FF Type-0
Nothing nearly as good as that Xenoblade one in the OP.
To be fair, you guys usually get the better cover art, anway.Quote:

Covers? Wait, what? I'm sorry, I got stuck in the download age. : (
No more wonderful cases for me.
I was freaking out looking for a game one day, like heart sinking because I really like it and I thought I may have lost it at school or somethingQuote:

Hate the download age. Fortunately it didn't take over consoles like companies had hoped
BioShock Infinite has reversible cover art that's vastly superior to the default cover art.
