If the black background where it says PS3 didn't fade out towards the end, it'd look far better.

Second one looks like a bad photoshop. Sony really didn't need to change it, I liked it how it was before.

the old one looks much better
mainly coz the logo was down the side aswell

The new box layout is better because it follows the X360 format with all the logos on top horisontally. Vertical logo was always awkward.

But it's sad that they had to destroy a unified format inside a generation with this change.

I was about a minute from saying that..

Sony copies MS

I vastly prefer the old boxart but i guess there is nothing we can do to stop this from happening!

While ignoring the stuff about it copying 360, I think the horizontal logo is better and yes they have had it since PS1 days

For PS3, I prefer the old.
For PSP, I prefer the new.

Not bad.
