Coolest Box Art Ever - CartoonDevil - 8th April 2003 Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to scour your collection, video game stores, and the internet for pictures of the coolest box art ever. It doesn't matter which system the game is for, just post a picture of the box art, and explain why you think it's the coolest. I haven't been able to decide myself yet (I've limited it down to three games), but I want to see what each of you think is the coolest box art. I'll post my choice when I finish deciding. Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 8th April 2003 Oh, so many to choose from. Here are some of my favorites: Tommy Lasorada or Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter's lovechild? My personal favorite: Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 8th April 2003 Woah... weird Mega Man and Pac-Man boxes! Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 8th April 2003 You don't like the original Mega Man box? Don't you think it just totally caputures the essence of Mega Man, the geriatric parachuter space cadet? Coolest Box Art Ever - Dark Jaguar - 8th April 2003 Haha, that's generally considered the WORST box art of all time that megaman one :D. It burns the eyes! Would it really be that bad for Capcom to have used the Japanese box art?! Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 8th April 2003 Yeah because then people would actually want to buy the game! Now how crazy would that be?? Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 8th April 2003 Its not a box, but in that spirit... Psycho Soldier, the arcade game... Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 8th April 2003 Wrong pic... Any idea who this character is? :) Coolest Box Art Ever - Sacred Jellybean - 8th April 2003 Coolest Box Art Ever - Darunia - 9th April 2003 LOL, that Mega Man box is the LAMEST thing ever! He looks so gay...the cover looks like the results of a third-grade drawing contest. I've shit out better looking things than that. Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 9th April 2003 No guesses who that is in the poster there? Oh well... guess I could just say... Oh, as for cool boxes... hmm. Warcraft III"s Collector's Edition is very cool... and I like the Oni PC box. Shiny silver with raised parts... Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 9th April 2003 Gah, I hate that Oni box. The art from that game is just so bad! Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 9th April 2003 Really? But the shiny silver raised stuff is cool... its a lot better than the PS2 version's box because its bigger... :) Oh, and that is (supposedly) Athena in that Psycho Soldier picture. Yeah, Athena from KOF... Oh, and the WC3 box is cool because its so big and heavy... it really feels like you got a lot that's cool. Oh, and that Halo 2 box is only funny if you also remember the quote that it was inspired by... As for other cool boxes, call back mid next month when I'm back at home... I don't keep my collection of (over a hundred) PC game boxes here at college... or my N64 or GB boxes for that matter... so I don't exactly remember which are the best, except from memory... Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 9th April 2003 Damn, she sure looks different. Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 9th April 2003 I thought of it when I saw that Mega Man box... how the actual character looks NOTHING like that (even in Psycho Soldier Athena has that purple hair! At least in the game she does... and she's supposed to be a teenager...)... Coolest Box Art Ever - Laser Link - 9th April 2003 The best box art ever is the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Limited Edition. It is. You all know it's true. I win. Coolest Box Art Ever - Great Rumbler - 9th April 2003 True dat. Coolest Box Art Ever - Dark Jaguar - 9th April 2003 You know, there's also SNK's game Athena :D. LL is correct, as always. Coolest Box Art Ever - A Black Falcon - 9th April 2003 Yeah, Athena was a game too, but I don't know what that one's boxart looked like... I doubt it was as absurd as it is in Psyco Soldiers... :) Oh, and what does that special OoT box look like? Coolest Box Art Ever - big guy - 9th April 2003 it's shiny and bumpy and GOLD! Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 9th April 2003 The SE OoT box art is cool because it's shiny and stuff, but I don't think it's the best game box ever. The Japanese ICO cover is my favorite. It's such a great piece of art, and it perfectly captures the spirit of this incredible game. Coolest Box Art Ever - Dark Jaguar - 9th April 2003 That looks like something Courage the Cowardly dog would see on his journeys, just before something REALLY disturbing happens like the earth telling them they are worthless wretches who deserve that fate and the dog screams. Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 9th April 2003 ... Space squids are cool. Coolest Box Art Ever - Dark Jaguar - 9th April 2003 You should watch Courage the Cowardly dog! That dog has dreams that frighten ME! Coolest Box Art Ever - OB1 - 9th April 2003 ... I just said that space squids are cool... that should have told you that I do watch the show. Coolest Box Art Ever - Dark Jaguar - 9th April 2003 Oh... Then... I should watch MORE of that show!
