Is that the official God of War III boxart??? I thought it looked different than that.

As for the Heavy Rain and inFamous boxarts, I think they look better than the other regions boxarts.

I agree. Lately SCEE has had upper hand when it comes to boxarts. Hopefully we will also get different GOW III boxart !

Maybe not...

I quite like it

It's not horrible boxart but it could be better also. Like this boxart that turned out to be fake:

Awesome....

The inFamous one was the same in Europe.

I didn't think the R&CF:ACiT one was bad, though I prefer the European one.

The other two...Oh god, they're just terrible.

I like the inFamous one. Don't like the other 3 though.

Well I agree that one is pathetic, but it seems that it is being used everywhere not just NA, so it is a Sony issue not a SCEA issue.

This thread should be about Sony Exclusive games cause Yakuza 3 is just the absolute worst i've ever seen.
