Boxart. Name your favourite.

Some excellent box art in this thread. I love the Deus Ex one though, some days I just feel like J.C.

Ultima boxes had some sweet paintings (at least until 7's minimalist black box, which I still really liked) but I think the first one I got was still my fave, Ultima 5.

Sega boxart was mostly a chapter of woe, that being said I remember I was superstoked to play Lord of the Sword when I first got it, based on the boxart alone it looked really cool. (It really wasn't)

LOL, that's a nice Frazetta swipe.

Hardcore Gaming 101 has a thread devoted to artwork in video games lifted from other sources, and it seems this particular Frazetta painting is popular for video game box art:

I love System Shock 2's. I have the big box and it has a sparkling front cover, makes SHODAN look even more fabulous.

Psy Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracys got a much better cover in Japan by way of Capcom and Shinkiro

Can't find a good image of the cover itself, (so here's just the art from it) but the Japanese PSP cover for Capcom Classic Collection is good

Front and back of the box, along with an ad.

Sorry bruh, but that second one looks truly horrible.
