It's an improvement, but I find it funny people won't buy a game because of box art

Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6). This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Wow, is this going into effect for all platinum titles? Definitely an improvement.

I hope so...I wanna get Dead Rising.

Lol.. Why don't you just get the original version used or something?

I'm glad they finally changed the ugly art work

What you did not like the shrunk down original boxart with a big ugly grey bar down the left side and top?

The old art was fucking awful. This is definitely much better. Still not a fan of the ugly grey cases. Then again, I don't like the solid primary red cases the PS3 Greatest Hits use either. When I first saw them, I thought they'd be a transparent red and that they'd fit in with the other games better. Not so much.

I'm going to go out on a whim and say that I'm not the only one who wouldn't buy a game because of the old Platinum Hits box art. It was so ugly it would be embarrassing in a game collection, it looked like a cheap game would find in a Kid's Meal.
