Cool Cover Art Appreciation
-
Here are some mine suggestions:
No man's sky
Okami
The Journey
Civ 5
Talos principle

@Nillend I'm starting to wish more covers had cats...
-
I think its a bit like with film posters/covers. Back in the days they were a little more creative and fun. Now they are "lol main character with weapon or back to back".
I loved to have my games standing on my shelf so I could see the art. Now I just got them stacked like books.
I do like these though!

^ This one will forever be a favorite. I'm a little disappointed they chose to sell the game using the bland version of just Booker up front, but at least the cover was reversible and this beauty was printed on the other side.

@SabotageTheTruth
Holy shit that's a million times better.
-
@Lotias someone else said Megaman was a WTF cover but Phalanx is my fave for WTF. It's great.

Gotta give a shout out to GTA too.
-
I really love the cover art for Red Dead Redemption! It really catches your eye
Some more SUPER HOT art can be seen on the cover of SUPER HOT!
(You cannot spell that name without using all caps)
-
Asteroids (recommended by a friend)
Out of This World/Another World (the good cover, not the SNES one)
Shadowrun (Super Famicom)
-
@Mechanoid That Shadowrun cover alone makes me want to play that game
-
I personally love, LOVE hand drawn cover art.
Persona 4: already mentioned so I'm going to post the ones not mentioned yet.

@V8Dave It looked so good I thought they just took the cover from the RPG. But I think it's original for the box art. Shame I can't find a larger version.

Best one

Alone in the Dark 1 & 2
yeah..okay, 3 is cool as well
ahhhh...thes covers were my crack-cocaine when i was a kid...damn they still are! so inspiring!
Also, the cover for DOOM 2 is highly superior to DOOM's
Alos, also: Heroquest! while not a video-game, it's probably the best cover for anything ever...and it is a game, so...
hmmm, it's almost like there's a through-line there with my picks...I confess: I like (well) painted cover art!

@Luepp25 I don't know what that roaring cougar is doing in the sky in Alone in the Dark 3, but I dig it
