TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:11:00 AM #53:	#12: Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time -Compared to the other two M&L titles - and most Mario titles in general - Partners in Time was a much more serious story, told on a surprisingly epic scale. This boxart does a wonderful job capturing the scope of it. The artwork is packed with characters and details, and yet it doesn't seem messy in the slightest; the result is, for my money, the best cover in the entire Mario franchise. -- Hey, you ever coming back?

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:17:00 AM #55:	#11: The Last Story -A truly ravishing cover that looks even more Criterion-esque than Chulip did. Nintendo and Xseed made the very wise choice to keep the boxart the same in each territory; so whether you live in the States, Japan, Europe or Australia, you can have this terrific cover in your collection, without having to resort to importing. (Though we still have to wait about a month for the American release...) -- Hey, you ever coming back? You kidding? I am Queens Boulevard. <cite>TheCodeisBosco posted [p:1273704] in Bosco'...

Jeff Zero 06/26/12 11:23:00 AM #57:	The Last Story's is great. I love how it mentions it as a Hironobu Sakaguchi game with music by Nobuo Uematsu.

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:34:00 AM #62:	Time for the top ten! Aww yeah! #10: Red Alarm JPN -My jaw hit the floor when I saw this for the first time. Who knew that a Star Fox-esque rail shooter could inspire such a badass (yet surprisingly artistic) cover? Granted, us Americans certainly didn't get dicked over or anything: But still, I don't know how the NoA guys could look at the original cover and think, "we need to make a new one." It's a perfect representation of the game, and stylish as all get out. -- Hey, you ever coming back? You kidding? I am Queens Boulevard. <cite>TheCodeisBosco posted [p:1273711] in Bosco'...

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:39:00 AM #63:	#9: Platoon -Sunsoft took a huge risk with this. It didn't look like anything in the NES library - NES boxarts typically tried to look as inviting as possible. This, though, is the kind of box that'll put hair on your chest. The awesomeness of this cover couldn't even be merely contained on the front of the box; you have to see the entire thing - front and back - to fully appreciate it. -- Hey, you ever coming back?

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:43:00 AM #64:	#8: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 -Without question, this is one of my favorite "mainstream blockbuster" boxarts. It's pretty much perfect on every level, if you ask me: Sonic looks ready for action, Tails is right at the forefront, and the checkered background is a nice, understated detail. It's a distinctly "Sonic" take on the old Genesis Black Box design. But of course, the selling point is Robotnik clutching that massive "2." He looks like a f**ing beast! -- Hey, you ever coming back?* You kidding? I am Queens Boulevard. <cite>TheCodeisBosco posted [p:1273713] in Bosco'...

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 11:49:00 AM #66:	#6: Borderlands -Possibly the most darkly comedic boxart to ever hit American shelves, Borderlands no doubt got a ton of impulse buys just from the cover alone. It couldn't possibly do a better job capturing the style and atmosphere of the game - and while Gearbox may never top it, they definitely followed it up in respectable fashion with the sequel. -- Hey, you ever coming back?

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 7:00:00 PM #71:	#5: Burnout Paradise -You just knew this was gonna be in the top five. Your typical racing game has a very generic, dull boxart; one that gets the job done, but just barely. With the Burnout Paradise cover, though, EA wouldn't settle for anything less than pure dopeness. It's sleek, relevant, and my pick for Boxart of the Generation™. -- Hey, you ever coming back?

As it stands, it's still... really damn close to perfect. It has many traits that, frankly, you wouldn't normally expect from a Nintendo-published title: it's sophisticated, dark, and even a bit sultry. It's also proof that the good ol' Virtual Boy red/black combo can be very stylish if executed properly. -- Hey, you ever coming back? You kidding?

TheCodeisBosco 06/26/12 7:32:00 PM #74:	#2: Pikmin 2 -When the first Pikmin title came out, the boxart and ad campaign placed heavy emphasis on the in-game visual style, which was considered quite advanced at the time. For whatever reason, though, Nintendo decided to go a wildly different route with Pikmin 2: it was nothing but claymation! Each region had its own brilliant claymation boxart; but for my money, the States had the best one. It's a truly inspiring scene, one that captures the essence of the Pikmin world in perfect fashion. Highlights include the lobster, who's clearly in quite a panic; the yellow Pikmin making its way back to land; and Louie, whose hilarious incompetence was also one of the brightest spots of the game itself. -- Hey, you ever coming back?

Well, you're about to find out. #1: ICO JPN/EU -This isn't just one of the best boxarts in gaming history - it might also be one of the great 21st century works of art. It's exquisite, and completely captures my attention every time I see it; it evokes an incredible sense of wonder and isolation. In one of gaming's most dunderheaded moments, Sony felt that it wouldn't appeal to US customers, and switched the cover to this: What a f**ing embarrassment. -- Hey, you ever coming back?* You kidding?

It's just so awful, and horribly outdated to boot. Just to ask, why do people hate the US cover art for Ico so much? I mean, it's definitely trash compared to the Japan/PAL cover for the game (which does a WAY better job conveying what the game is all about), but...did I just answer my own question? I beat Ico for the first time recently and am close to wrapping up SOTC for the first time. Both 10/10 games, no question. I didn't even have much of a problem with the major complaints that both games often receive (e.g. SOTC's horse controls didn't take any getting used to at all for me). <cite>LinkMarioSamus posted [p:1273737] in Bosco'...
