What's the best boxart of all time?

Never understood why they had this random ass Selkath dude on the cover when it could have been Carth (lol) or Jolee or, idk, Revan? Wonder if a Selkath party member was an idea at some point.

I'm especially fond of Ultima IV and much of the SSI catalog. Oh, and Atari 2600 first party as well as most of the Odyssey2 games.
This is the correct answer. The box for this game was a thing of beauty.Fukken iconic
The plight of Sam Rockwell, the struggling actor. Taking any gig just to make ends meet.
I'm shocked it took until this for a rainbow road boxart when it's been the most iconic track since smk.
Maybe not of all time but I think this is the strongest on the Switch.
Wast just about to post this. So much nostalgia it hurts.I'm a fan of Kingdom Hearts 1's.
I love the original Kingdom Heart's box art. I'm seeing lots of other great box arts in here too.
I've always loved Heavy Rain's European boxart
The Japanese boxart is pretty great too
we don't talk about the American box art

Yeah I was gonna say MGS Essentials Collection or Max Payne 2. Both are the correct opinions here
I'd throw in Evil Within's reversible cover, something I consider almost like a "Criterion Collection" style thing, way better than the Saw-ish original
The Evil Within 2 has one that's better than the OG too, although sadly it lacks in spine

This is pretty great. There's some layers here too, given this is a Wii U port, and showcases a remake of an N64 track.

I'm not a fan of the RE4 Wii/EU covers from a marketing standpoint. Chainsaw guy is only in the game three or four times and in only two of them he feels like a "boss".
LOL Basic Programming and it's got a slick future dude laying down beats surrounded by synthesizers like Daft Punk in a 2001 cockpit flying through space with planets and moons and shit in the background.Got to be one of those classic Atari box arts. They could make literally anything look dynamic and exciting.
For those who like the Secret of Mana box art, the artist was called Hiro Isono and I highly recommend looking up his other art.
Passed away a few years ago sadly.

Sad to hear they passed away but damn that's some beautiful artwork.
Thanks for the info.
It's legitimately this. What an amazing choice. It's so fucking perfect. It's been burned into my mind since I saw it in the K-Mart racks as a child.
I just came here to see if Phalanx and MegaMan had already been posted. Was not disappointed. Good job everyone!
One case where I really don't like the Japanese art. The faces are off and the western art represents the game more with an iconic shot.
this one's a painful downgrade from the majestic original artFukken iconic
what was nintendo's damage
Japanese Ico is so beautiful.
EU got the same art too.
god bless those art cards you got with the game and that cardboard case.
How has no one mentioned any of the Castlevanias with gorgeous Ayami Kojima art on them yet?
