ITT: god tier video game covers

best one

All 3 Blops have pretty badass covers

...

...

...

...

i get it ha ha

...

muh walking military man

Bad company 2 cover is legendary m8

all kino covers

Someone ITT has a serious boner for vid related:

youtu.be/z9dg8PI2sEg

...

LA Noire is the best cover there

...

>This'll show them

New one's better IMO

...

>Mass Effect
Generic.
>Red Dead Redemption
Wow, it's the protagonist and some colors! Wow.
>STALKER SoC
A face that has nothing to do with anything in the game and a poor screenshot with a filter. Shit.
>Doom
God tier.
>Resistance 2
It's all right, but doesn't suit the game. It would be better for the third one.
>NFS U2
Wow, a wheel. I guess that's a racing game, right?
>Fallout NV
Good style. Too bad rangers suck.
>Mafia
Eh, kinda Godfatherish, but plain.
>CoD MW2
Wow, a soldier that walks towards you. With an EXPLOSION DUDE.
>The Evil Within 2
Can't say it's great, but looks nice and makes you look for the details, does it's job.
>CoD BO
Can we agree all CoD covers suck ass?
>RE4
>not the European

>OP asks for god tier covers
>Everyone posts shit-tier covers.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

...

Oh shit that's cool

...

3 is better

>A face that has nothing to do with anything in the game and a poor screenshot with a filter. Shit.
jesus what a fucking pleb

You're kidding, right?

...

...

He started off posting a shit-tier cover, so the thread just followed suit.

Thanks for your shit opinions, now kys

wowzers get your 200IQ criticism out of here

...

>not posting the Japanese cover

...

godly

...

>that shepard
OH NO NO NO

...

still one of the most kino art styles to date

...

...

best ones so far

Reminder if your videogame artwork uses babbys first color theory blue/orange or blue/black its shit

マスエフェクト can't be rendered in that font you silly nips. Just look at that ト, it's fully retarded.

...

why did the aliens flip the diner sign updside down? shit cover. resistance 1 was better

>le orange and blue meme

...

...

>tfw nostalgia
youtube.com/watch?v=-Y5iF1Pdlcw

It looks even better in the box too

...

Bought this game last week, has aged like cottage cheese, can't get into it. feelsbadman

games dont age faggot, oblivion was shit since day 1

The GTA games have pretty good covers. They're all the same shit, but it's some good shit.

...

...

Thank you.

jesus

...

Nah it was fun when it released. Aged badly though.

the UK GTA III cover was pretty cute

I was about to call you a faggot for saying cute, but then I looked at it more and saw what you mean.

youtube.com/watch?v=NXiTDsxLjQA

Have the game too while you're at it.
It runs on a typewriter so have fun.

...

...

I’m a female though.

Literally one of the best art covers of any game, of all time. This is genuinely a work of art, it’s instantly recognizable and always will be. It communicates everything succinctly and is rad as fuck.

>It communicates everything succinctly and is rad as fuck.

Kino coming through

Has the best menu as well.

Of course you are :^)

...

What a shit cover...
Can anybody tell me why the DVD boxes had to be bigger and plainer than CD god tiers?

Please don't.
Apart from the setting, it sucked ass.

because you are a dumb nostalgiafag

...

thanks user

DVD boxes had a shit-ton of information on them. It's better to just make it bigger than cram a bunch of small text on it so grandma and grandpa can't read and wont buy the movie.

Nobody asked you, fucking faggot. Kill yourself

too bad the game was dogshit

God will forgive you.

Underrated.

get the fuck out

autismus maximus

What was actually enjoyable about the game?

>sleeping dogs
>dogshit

What a pleb opinion. Fuck me. Sleeping Dogs was an awesome little game and a relative breath of air for numerous reasons at the time it came out and to this day still. Begone, whore.

...

>Sleeping Dogs was a shittier Yakuza
ftfy

is the face a reference to the book/movie?

Literally one of the best art covers of any game, of all time. This is genuinely a work of art, it’s instantly recognizable and always will be. It communicates everything succinctly and is rad as fuck.

I remember the cover of Future Perfect was so bland that a friend thought it was a shitty game. Fucking blew his mind when he played it. This one is much better.

kek

>I've never played the game

...

Oh boy! Can't wait to play "10 Out of 10"™

that's okay, you didn't miss anything

is that hotline miami?

No you newfag I was implying that YOU'VE never played the game.

...

>putting this much effort for some meaningless "you"s

Yup, japanese release collector's edition

...

>THE STATE OF EU

...

HOLY SHIT HE'S NOT LOOKING AT THAT EXPLOSION. HE'S JUST LOOKING OFF INTO THE DISTANCE LIKE IT DOESN'T EVEN PHASE HIM. WHAT A BAD ASS

Good game though.

...

>What are mods

I always liked this one, it really encapsulates the general theme of cooperation.

japanese version, US one is shit

I've never even played the game but this is gorgeous

what mods would you recommend? I used a mod to make the character models less disabled but thats it.

>halo man with gun and blue orange contrast
it's just so boring.

...

To be fair to this guy he's actually replying to posts and he's right most of these are generic and shit.

I like these.

I quite like this as well

...

TLOU doesn't belong there. Everything else is god-tier, though.

Wrong one for Mgs2

...

...

perfect

God tier game too btw

Thank you BASED vidya cover police

This shitty persona rip off at least had some stylish art

this one was very striking for me

...

>in the generation of remasters, Ubisoft will never do anything with the PoP series, let alone making a new game

WHY LIVE

...

I really wish this was BC on the Xbone already. Probably the last entry I truly enjoyed.

underrated

So exclusive everyone in North America can play it wow, don't forget to tell me when the 5mil limited edition goty copies are released

I really like Bad Company 2's purely for the player names over all of the vehicles and guys in the background.

Assassins creed was supposed to be a PoP game, so I'm glad Ubi decided to not do anything with it.

...

to think that something so good could get so fuckng bad

youtu.be/P5GHQNnPUuo

My fucking childhood

...

Adding some PoP skins to AC would dramatically increase it's quality desu

>EAT MA PERIOD

...

you may have shit taste, but your opinions are just as valid as anyone else's, however do abstain from fucking replying like this you dumbshit, it gives me cancer

...

...

seething

You are being ironic, right?

...

...

...

>do not cross
>a man with nothing to lose

KINO

...

...

...

...

DELETE THIS

American """cult*re""" ruined yet another thing.
youtube.com/watch?v=dprsFhqKa_o

IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR, IT WAS HER TURN

...

...

This was THE vidya cover that started the "blue and orange background with protagonist holding a weapon" meme though, halo 3 was released 12 years ago.

MODS MODS MODS

*Tears for Fears intensifies*

BLUE

AND

>ORANGE

...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

...

IT WAS HER TURN

I also really like this one

Incidentally, I havent play DS either, will play it when the remaster drops on pc though

...

...

top tier

...

...

Souls games have pretty nice box art generally.

...

Yeah, I shouldn't have asked, it's obvious they were indeed ironic.
I'll continue to actually put some good taste for the people who gets in this thread seriously.

...

and this

kinda looks like an old tome, a cover of a mysterious book

...

...

also this

the art is really nice and the characters blend in very nicely, you would even notice them at first glance

...

...

...

Stop it retard, the Bourne movies started the blue and orange craze

...

...

I remember passing on getting this game sealed for 3 bucks in 2015 solely because i thought it was gonna be some kind of visual novel adaptation of the myth with anime graphics and instead picking up a beat up copy of peace walker, a game which i later learned got an amazing ps3 port, i still regret it.

and what the fuck is so special about this?
thread is about god tier covers not your favourite nostalgic game

>Good game though
Underage get out

best cover in the last 5-6 years, for sure

...

Nah, 3's pose is uninteresting and leaning at an awkward angle, blue and orange gradient seems more forced. Halo 2's is an awesome action pose showcasing a game mechanic, with a more natural blue orange divide (background + title).

obligatory

I said vidya covers, user.

...

...

>tfw castlevania is fucking dead
>the two supposed rip-offs are focusing more on being a soulsborne rip-off except one will have anime tiddies and the other is gonna be Hatred levels of edgy

My nigga.
I didn't even care much for Ace combat.
But I played the fuck outa that game.

...

Is this the JP cover or something? I've never seen it before.

My man.
Got my copy signed by Vincent's VA.

i like all the diablo covers

...

...

I also feel bad because I wanted the 1999 one, but hey, we've got a shitton of metroidvanias, so it could be much worse.

OST cover iirc, but may be a special japanese edition.
Oh, and thanks for putting the ...if cover, it's great indeed.

>only kids enjoy cod

...

...

I particullary was impresed by pic related, such an amazing game for its time.

step aside plebs, real cover kino coming through

...

so cute, user

...

What game?

Correct unless you dont count retards as children

...

I would legitimately buy a poster of this without the text or the text moved down. I don't even like Uncharted, it's just too good.

Troy Baker?

Yeah.

Google image search gives it well, pal.
I haven't played, though, so I can't recommend it.

MB man, just looked it up, it's Visual Novel kind of thing, but the cover looks awesome regardless.

...

has that game been translated yet?

...

thats cool, he's a handsome guy (no homo)

...

>moby games
I have to remember to get better versions of my covers folder, I always procrastinating.

Yeah, he's really nice to talk to as well.

SEETH

...

There is one translation in romhacking.net from 2009, so I guess.

Pic related series was SO disappointing. I always fall for the pretty graphics.

...

10/10

The rest of this thread is SHIT, y'all niggas have SHIT TASTE

...

...

ayy lmao

I fucking love this one, although I hate FFT.

That's literally the cover of the Book of the Dragonborn inside the game.

...

...

I actually didn't like the cover of TS2.
It completely blew me away playing it because I didn't expect anything special before renting it.

...

honestly love the sense of speed in this

>thread is about game covers
>doesn't post game covers

delet this

...

are you disabled

i didn't even know there were niggers in baseball

I almost wish there was rules against cluttering up the front of cases.
That would look a lot better with just the artwork.

I've seen both KH and Another World covers WITH MY OWN EYES, asshole (I'm european, though), and go put ultima online cover in google images to see what appears.
And if you meant it's only the art, well, of fucking course it is, you retard, that's what matters.

ayyy senpai

There is no ESRB certification nor Playstation
or Xbox banner so that doesn't count as a cover. Your point is invalid guys.

...

...

darn it

...

Coming full circle now, PoP had great covers.

I love this

Based, right on every point

...

...

...

Superfam had some wonderful vertical covers for some reason.

...

OBSESSED

...

...

fucking 100% this

Is this the true patrician's cover art of choice? I posted in a similar thread a while ago and got 0 replies. Do plebs really not see the appeal?

...

>contrasting colors meme
>good

Pick one

Would be better without all "10outof10! holyfuckinghdhkm,gvfgdkgvhjnrwbrkgvmrkvcmrkwlsv,resgkbiojmtngbeor;ijgbmrtkfm,ewogrmtewoigkm!"

Awful Logo and background, but JC is goat indeed, and that's why E.Y.E remade the cover better.

>the joke

could this be a reference?

...

...

...

>powerful character looking down at less powerful character
LE EPIC REFERENCE????

>a hat in time before it was cool

i remember playing the shit out of the demo

Don't think so, it's a pretty easy composition to get inspiration for.
One of the Scott Pilgrim's books actually made the homage to the SFA2 cover, though.

...

...

It's hard to pick one P2 cover, the game is trash, but had several great covers.

1 > 2 > 3

The first game managed to draw in millions of people just on its cover alone, and where as 2 & 3 spent tens of millions spent on advertising 1 just had its awesome cover and word of mouth.

...

probably been posted already but

...

...

...

...

Remove the obnoxious title text and this would be incredible

...

>Nah it was fun when it released. Aged badly though.

No you moron. You just fell for the marketing hype like the sheeple you are.

Le blue and orange, man in center, face down eyes up

This, 2 pisses me off.

>face down eyes up
hes clearly looking straight you fucking retard

dope as.

...

...

Do OSTs count?

...

...

...

...

pretty much any of the psygnosis games.

...

I did not actually get the game because of the cover (I got it because of a preview video on 1up.com) but I still thought it was great.

...

...

Well, I'll go out (I have many more covers, but I want to sleep) how I entered,
all these are ugly as sin, and I hope you were being ironic.

And have some motherfucking Noriyoshi Ohrai, because why the hell no.

...

Best one so far

...

...

is this bait?

fuck that's amazing

...

...

pure kino.

The cover is pretty bad itself, but it does have a unique color scheme that I've developed nostalgic feelings towards.

...

No taste at all.

...

>Please allow me, a non-native Japanese speaker, to instruct you lowly Japanese on how to write your own language.

...

...

...

what the fuck. this is downright ugly. you're definitely letting your opinion on the game influence your opinion on the cover. Halo 3's is fucking beautiful, though.

They didn't. It's vertically mirrored and it just so happens that those letters look the same right side up as they do upside down. If the R was lit up you'd be able to see it better.

...

robby the fucking robot.

Time continues to fly, but this is still my favorite. I'll probably print it someday when I get some decent spare dosh. I didn't even play the game

...

...

Just replayed the Darksiders games in anticipation for the third

...

not even the same game you mong

After the numerous Randy threads here, I find it impossible to appreciate anything made by Gearbox anymore.

...

Did I leave le stove on face

i never did understand why the punk kid from glee was in a video game.

At first I was weirded out by this cover, but I guess I can appreciate it for being bold for a AAA game cover.

...

obligatory

...

...

>Beefy white guy with an actitude being violent covering all the fucking background
It's as AAA generic it can get, and plain and simple, awful

...

4 when?

...

Actually no. Most covers covers try to create a sense of wonder and epicness. FC3's cover evokes fear and disgust, which is odd considering the game is very much a quite typical AAA action game aimed at all ages.

...

...

...

...

...

These types of posts should be a bannable offence

...

...

wtf are you on user

...

>this could've been the cover

...

...

...

come on now

2 Sonic 2 The Hedgehog?

No it's SEGA TM GENESIS TM 16-BIT CARTRIDGE 2 OFFICIAL SEGA TM SEAL OF QUALITY SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2 TM
