[Lakitu]

I think it's really really nice.

 

[AniHawk]

Man, this game looks so good.

 

[Doube D]

nov 18? isn't that the proposed x360 date? Not that it makes a difference either way but still interesting.

 

[Amir0x]

Yeah, it's not bad. I still like the PAL GC boxart better, though.

 

[junkiexxl]

better than RE4 us cube boxart
better than RE4 pal cube boxart

thanks capcom

 

[Kevtones]

I think its awesome looking but seems out of place as the RE4 cover. Seems like more of an indie or "arthouse" game cover then a blockbuster. Blair Witch the game anyone? (kidding)

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I don't like it at all, I would prefer if the Capcom logo wasn't in the center.

 

[pringles]

It's definately not better than this one.

It's not as bad as the US cube boxart though.

 

[ikalugar]

I like it a lot, yet it doesn't seem to fit the game for some reason. *shrug*

"In 4 resident evil, we observe our protagonist, an aspiring young songwriter, as he sets off into the wilderness, banjo in hand, to compose the songs that will voice the protest of his generation against the societal evils darkening the skies of our soul."

 

[Zeo]

Well, better than the crappy GC boxart at least.

Too bad that'll be the only thing better about it!!~~~~~!!111oneoneoneone

 

[Wollan]

That's an awesome cover.
But regarding release date, wasn't US/PAL release next spring?

 

[Borys]

I like it. Has a nice vertical vibe.

HERE CUMS CHAINSAW GUY

 

[OptimusPrime]

um...what? I think it looks pretty nice

both of the 'red' boxes posted in this thread are better than the US GC one

Even thought it features the same badguy...

I get it now! It's the same scene, just modified to show the background detail levels of the respective versions

 

[Piepz]

Man, this game looks so good.

[sarcasm]If we talk about graphics, then PS2 version looks like a shit compared to GCN version.
GCN boxart (PAL) > PS2 boxart > GCN boxart (US).[/sarcasm]

I litterally laugh out loud after reading your comment... :lol

Seems your sacrasm-o-meter is broken!

 

[GSG Flash]

Man, this game looks so good.

You can't wait to play it either eh?

Oh man, I wanna play this game so much

 

[shibbs]

That looks really nice.

 

[Salmon]

A bigger one:

 

[Escape Goat]

I don't like it. I'd rather have the US Cube version.

 

[Ranger X]

Very nice. Best RE4 box art imo.

 

[Black_Mamba]

Looks much better than the others. I doubt they're using it for the US version though...

 

[Dr_Cogent]

What matters is what's inside the box.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Nice but the PAL GC version is better in my opinon simply because the trees form a frame that focuses your attention on the lone (and menacing) figure in the distance. But like many have said...Still better than the US GC boxart.

 

[Zaptruder]

Boxarts would probably fair alot better if they didn't all have a large strip identifying their system at the top.

True it would be more trouble to hunt down a none standardized logo; but with things arranged in playstation, xbox, gamecube sections in store, and mandating companies to display the console logo somewhere on the front cover, if not as the strip itself, it would provide a good deal more flexibility in the box art.

Because honestly, that box works much better without the PS2 or even Gamecube logo strips uptop.

 

[sammy]

take out the stupid silly sillouhette of the chiansaw dude, and they have one of the best boxarts ever.

 

[Oracle Dragon]

Thanks for the large pic I turned it into a GC cover for my US Gamecube version... that looks much better now.

 

[solarplexus]

Larger



http://www.gamefront.de has two new hires artworks of the ps2 version but they're too big for ImageShack. I like the one with Ada

 

[Boogie9IGN]

Anyone have the sexy GC cover with the trees in hires, or at least big enough so that I can print it out and slip it in the box cover?

 

[Oracle Dragon]

Here, I'm sure as heck no Kakusha, but this is the quick conversion I made for my RE4... so if someone else wants it, help yourself! This is as big as I can make it for Imageshack.

 

[Mr_Furious]

I like it. Has that horror movie vibe.

 

[E2G]

Looks to me, from the box art, that the PS2 just can't manage to render as many trees as the GameCube. :lol

Jokes asside, GCN boxart looks better... PS2's just looks too... red... IMHO.

 

[Solid]

the more i look at it the better it looks. i like the colour. it's nice to see that they totally remade the boxart for this version too.

 

[Killkernal]

take out the stupid silly sillouhette of the chiansaw dude, and they have one of the best boxarts ever.

I agree. It would look a hell of a lot more creepy and forboding with just the trees, shadows and crows flying. Lil' chainsaw fella seems out of place and does not look very ominous compared to his in-game counterpart.
