[allyhewitt]

i've just watched the zero punctuation for arkham assylum (not for the first time) in hich he dismays his dislike of the box art, same for mass effetc 2, so i was wandering what box art people like, like for me it's bioshock and darvoid is pretty cool too...

Spoiler: I'm sorry, this might seem very rude, and i apologize in advance.

But i have to ask. Do you have a problem? Or do you just not care that you failed to make a single complete sentence with so many missing letters and grammatical mistakes.

I really like the box art for Battlefeild Bad Company. (i'm talking the special box with the golden sleeve and just a pile of gold bars on the actual box.)

I don't really have an all time favorite, but I can think of a few really good ones.

For me, good boxart is simple and stylish. A few good examples are L4D, Dead Space and Dragon Age: Origins. Using only a few simple colors and one simple figure is a very working concept.

most covers of modern day head to head fighting games are cool becasue there usally a collage of the various characters and i find those kind of arrangements quite pleasing...boobs.

I love the box art for Fallout 3. It's such a great image.

Magna Carta 2. The game was (IMO) shit. Cover Art made me want to buy it anyway.

I must be the only person who liked the Mass Effect 2 box art, then again I liked the Mass Effect 1 box art as well.

I bought this game entirely from the boxart.

Spoiler: Very big image

Told you...It's HUGE!

That one is one of the best.

All of the Metal Gear Solid games have had great Box Art, seemingly drawn by angels. Same with the Zone of the Enders series.

Aw hell yeah.

The company of heroes box art. It doesn't need to be fancy =).

 

[Tattaglia]

Borderlands was very different and very cool, IMO.

Spoiler

Aw hell yeah.

The demon looking at me always freaked me the hell out.

Shadow of the colossus

well drawn yet so simple and straight forward

 

[Tiswas]

Don't know about BEST one ever but I really like:

One Piece: Unlimited Cruise 2 (And the japanese box art for the first one.)
Monster Hunter Tri looks pretty epic.
Bioshock (the first one. Especially the shiny sleeve.)
I enjoyed Red Alert 3's too. Dunno why.

Worst ones imo are the likes of:
Final Fantasy (most of these are just so boring.)
Fallout 3,
Resident Evil 5

I think the simplicity of Blue Dragon looks really nice, with just a boy and his shadow to see
