Packaging

[Iwata]

I mentioned in another thread that the packaging for the limited edition of Alan Wake is made to look like a book, and it looks pretty damn good.

That reminded me of the old packaging for Manhunt for the PC. The box was made like a VHS tape, and the game's manual inside was a catalog of other snuff movies.

What other cool (or not) examples of original packaging have you encountered?

Demon's Souls' Collector's edition:

It reminds me of a tome in a way.

the fallout 3 lunch box is pretty awesome

 

[Chaos Incarnate]

The fallout: New Vegas Collectors Edition looks even cooler

 

[Haunted Serenity]

I have to agree with the Demon Souls.

The collectors or limited edition for Halo Wars was interesting. Heavy enough that game will sink to the briney depths when i'm fed up with it.

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

Just Cause's manual was treated like a holiday brochure. I don't know if the sequel did the same thing.

Pretty much every PC game circa 15 years ago.
