It's such a small factor, but I've always liked the PS3's boxes best. I love that some games have art on the interior - that's always a cool touch.

[QUOTE="funsohng"][QUOTE="johny300"] This TC and the best boxart imo is MGS4 which is not included on that list :(.finalfantasy94

MGS4 standard edition was horrible compared to other MGS games. MGS4 Limited Edition however.... is awesome.

One of the main reasons I bought the LE was the boxart. The normal boxart was boring.

yeah, i bought LE even though I already had the standard edition (but they were selling it at 10 bucks!!! I had to get it)

I'd have to give it to the PC on this one - the best packaging, IMO, is whatever is least visually obtrusive. A set of black DVD cases certainly meets that description. (Yeah, I know, I'm archaic for still buying games on physical media.)

I notice NA gets screwed when it comes to boxarts, they always seem to have to worse version.

Is it me or is the case for PS3 more sturdy and polished? I own both consoles and the XBox cases are just feel like they break easily or bent. The PS3 cases are thick and feels strong.

My vote goes to OnLives imaginary boxart, because they can be whatever you want them to be.

As for cases, NeoGeo takes the cake. Boxart in general Psygnosis had the best artwork on their Amiga games.

Green is a color commonly associated with vomit, and for that reason the 360's box art can never win. PS3's box art is the color of sexy.

All those top bars/bands with the PS3/X360 brands just detracts from a game's boxart...they all become ugly and awkward because of it imho.

Red boxes FTW!

The only think I hate about them is that they are opaque and not translucent like the HDDVD boxes. Honestly, I think that was kind of a stupid move by sony TBH. Now that I think about it, the HDDVD Organization (or whatever the HDDVD equivalent to the BLU RAY Organization is called) most likely has a patent or copyright or something for translucent red boxes.

Would much rather it look like this but with a blu ray logo instead (a clear logo though):

There is something special about opening the game boxes and seeing art on the inner part of the box. It would suck not having THIS in there in the greatest hits version:

Lol wtf I have had my PS3 for a few years now, every single exclusive I own has one of those pictures, and yet I never noticed until you brought it up. Those are pretty awesome though. Infamous is pretty cool too how it is the exact same picture as the manuel just with the white lightning instead of red.

I think the Xbox 360 has better box-art layout, but I like the smaller PS3 cases

PS3 game cases not only look better, but they're also of better quality. Xbox360 game cases can easily crack and break. As for the boxarts, PS3 wins again, IMO of course.

I like the greatest hits version of U2 that's really sharp looking, I gotta say wii games look better because they are simple and bright, kinda look like the game case version of Mirror's Edge... Then I'd say PS3 as they aren't so "In your face" with lime green and the generic case shape, PS3 cases are more rounded and focus your eye on the case rather than the bright green border you see.
