FFXII is one of my personal favourites. Such a badass box art.

Wow, that list really does fucking SUCK.
Sorry I can't do cool little thumbnails like Bluecast, but I think I've got some really cool favorites:

Is it... Mister Mosquito?
He probably likes the simplicity of it. Pic's a little small, so I didn't immediately see the mosquito on there, but I suppose it ain't so bad (despite being... a foot...).

Funny the Master System box art for Master of Darkness and Ninja Gaiden looks state of the art compared to most other Master System box art.
I could probably think of a ton more, I'll maybe update the list later with more Nintendo box art.

I am not big on CG stuff.

the US one reminds me too much of that Shenmue online pic which I never cared for.

I am going to have to agree. It's a pretty lame list overall. The reasons for their choices are bad as well.

Not my favorite but definitely funny.

I think the list gets worst as it goes on up to #1, most of them were awful choices.

One I am glad to see on their is Sim City 2000.
