Basically, the designers of the original cover took a promo picture for Okami off of IGN (probably couldn't get the original from Capcom themselves, so they just hunted one down on the Internet), didn't remove the IGN watermark, and the final cover turned out as an accidental advertisement for IGN.
So, after the game's release, people noticed it, and it spread like wildfire across the Internet. In response, Capcom offered owners replacement covers. I didn't need one - I really didn't care. But they were free, so why not? I got all three.
However, there weren't three exactly. There were two, then the "third" was printed on the opposite side of the first two.
