I idea of this thread is to compare boxart of games, maybe from one region to another, or maybe original to re-release. I've been thinking of making this thread for a while, but was suddenly spurred into action after having the shock of my life seeing the US cover for Suikoden, compared to my European cover.

This time, we will be covering one of my favourite games of all time, Okami. A game that has had it's fair share of different covers.
Choice 1: Japanese PS2 Cover:
fantastic, although this strikes me more as a piece of artwork more fitting for a special edition sleeve, rather than a standard cover.
Choice 2: North American/European PS2 Cover:
While I like this cover, the artwork itself is my least favourite out of the ones I've shown. It's a shame this game came out on the PS2 while I was still engrossed in Twilight Princess. It was always on my 'to buy' list until the Wii port released and I finally bought it.
Choice 3: Japanese Wii Cover
My personal favourite. I like how colourful it is and the position of Ammy.
Choice 4: North American/European Wii Cover:
While I like the art on this cover, the IGN logo on the US cover (not the one above) is IMO just sloppy.
Choice 5: U.K HMV Special Edition Wii Cover:
This is the cover I have. While the game was £5 more expensive at HMV, I was willing to pay extra for this beautiful special edition cover.
