Your Favorite Cover Arts!

You're thinking of Shinkirou. She's putting out some excellent Capcom covers. I really like how her work on Gun Survivor Dino Crisis turned out.



EDIT: Yes, "she".

I'm a sucker for Macross. If only 90% of the games were as good as the cover art. I like the psx version better than the saturn one but ended up buying the latter.

Ah! It's a female artist? My mistake. I like her work and I think Capcom should hire her more and not just as a cover artist, but as a full-fledge character designer.

Some of the best box art ever can be found on Atari 2600 games. Even some of the most primitive games featured cover art that evoked the imagination, to help transport you to a wonderful fantasy world. Most of Atari's best art was in the early years of the system (1977-1980), but some of the later games had great artwork, too.

Damn! You're not kidding! That Combat art is amazing. I was always a fan of the Yar's Revenge box (and game ) myself.

As for Shinkirou, yeah, I can't get enough of her art either. Her KoF and Capcom VS SNK stuff was particularly good.

Recently, I thought Contra SS was very good.

You've just sent me on a quest to find a complete version of Combat. (Best game on the 2600 IMO.)

I also loved this one but I don't recall having played the game:
