I think it looks pretty nice.

It looks very nice i espescially like the Spiderman style writing.

To be honest, it sucks. I've seen fanart look more elegant than this =\

We'll see, though, this is only preliminary, and Sony still has time to change its plans.

The actual case is pretty nice. They should've had a darker blue or even a black colour though.

It reminds me of the first PS games with the writing on the sides. It could be a lot better though.

I really like it. More headroom for the art itself.

Looks pretty cool. It will be hard to get use to the writing on the side though. Havn't seen that since the old PS1 days. :P

That looks like crap.

They should make a box that isn't an oglong, make it like, a circle or something. Or a cube, that'd be fucked up. Totally uselss but so what it'd be better than that thing.

^yeah, it's ugly. I have a feeling this is yet another "boomerang"; a marketing gimmick Sony's using to get attention. Then, at TGS, Sony will probably create a newer, revised box cover, making fans happy and stabilizing the endless hype for the PS3.

Hell, I'm into conspiracies ;)

Bump

No it seems all PS3 covers will look that way this is the newest one for Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.

I didnt like the blue color of the cover itself. It looked kinda cheap imo.
The text at the side is aight though.

Reminds me of Spiderman.

It does. But those blue covers doesn't really give me the "next-gen" feeling.
Looks more like a cheap Classics series for PC.

I think that honestly looks shitty. They should've stuck with the headline to be on top, in my opinion, that is a lot better looking.

Looks like shit tbh..The left, with Playstation 3, etc just...Doesn't really fit with the rest.

Another thing I really don't like about it, is the Spiderman type writing. Makes it look even worse in my opinion.

Looks quite cool, but I would begrudge paying £60-70 just for one game...

Dont really care about the box, saying this I never bought a playstation and never will, especially after the high priced PS3, arent they rich enough ffs!

I quote myself from another thread...
That would roughly be £45-50 in the UK, afterall It's not a straight conversion, we get tax and all that other rip off bollocks added on top.

Eh, its ok. Its really not that creative but they may improve it before release.

yeah, I hope this get changed a bit. The 360 covers doesn't really look that appealing either.

To be honest, if these covers were for just normal DVD Cases, they would look quite nice, It gives the art a more Cinema Poster feel to it.

Yeah, like Larr said, it creates more room for the actual boxart. I just wish they were a little more creative with what they do with their own logo etc.

PS3 template looks like ass.

But it's the game that counts. :)

Exactly. I don't remember, but I can imagine that I liked the PSX covers back then, but look at them now. Good for a laugh.
We will get used to the covers. In 2 years time, noone will comment it.
