    Default Best cover art for a game?

    What do you rate as the best cover art for a game? Often, very good art will attract the customer, like me, while crud cover art often makes the customer look away

    Anyway, this is one of my favourites

    Cover art without text

    Which ones are your favourites?

    The Japanese/PAL boxart for Ico is my personal favourite.
    "The most important and recognize player in the history of the country."

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    I always like the original Metal Gear Solid cover art for the PSX. It was super simple and unique in America.

    What was the cover art for Ico that you speak of? My copy (The rerelese of Ico, with SoTC) looks odd with the art

    BTW, the cover art I showed was from Castlevania: Curse of Darkness for those who may be wondering

    EDIT: Whoops didnt see the link
