My Top 20 Favorite Game Box Cover Artwork

[starrman990]

I totally saw number 1 coming. My favorite would probably be Shadow of The Colossus

[xxabooodxx100]

yo pete .plz do ps1 game list:)

[Jackoasta]

I do not agree with you with #1, I think Sonic Colours on the Wii has the most amazing art cover

[Quasar152]

@Jackoasta

Dementium 2 on DS has an awesome cover

[Quasar152]

Did you know that the zombies that are in the background of the "Zombies Ate My Neighbours" game cover are on the back of the movie the "Night of the Living Dead"?

[mynameischaos10]

resident evil 4 uk version hands down up there

[hammerinhand]

Pfft, no Megaman 1? Best cover art EVER!!!

[jackeescav26]

you should make top ten video ame milestones

[StaticH20]

final fantasy 13 has the best box cover art ive ever seen in a videogame

[zGendERfREshANdSaY]

I still have Sega Mega Drive and I still play games on it when I get bored of the Xbox 360 :)

[imbadatnames390]

You should see the cover of system shock 2,that cover art is really good

[MatthewDeSilva13]

One of my favorite game box arts is mgs 2 great artwork on that one

[PaulHark9]

pete dorr is my hero of video games he does what he loves and will keep doing it for many many years to come even with all these pricks being asses to him

[KillingJoke696]

Ducktales. Outerspace level?

[ekan1995]

Pete it would be good if you said that the Chrono Trigger and the Final Fantasy X cover is the amarican cover cuz those covers are totally different then the european ones :P but still great video!

[Ibeatnintendo]

Hey, do you have Conker's BFD and Live and reloaded. I love those.

[dfer159632]

man I can not get over how awesome your room is

[elsquibbs]

Ducktales had some of the best NES music. Ducktales, Mega Man and Solomon's Key still stick out in my mind.

[ikamico]

really love the music. I like the secret of mana cover, might actually try that game.

[Creamy360]

most of the NTSC box arts are horrible, because Americans stereotypically like to see guns, swords and boobies.

PAL and JP box arts are generally better because Europe and Japan have taste and are more cultural.

[Linkswolfform]

I didn't know Ico's JP/PAL cover I like it too.

Great, thanks Pete you made me almost break out in song with Brentalfloss.

[griffffolian]

Nice choices, every extend extra is tight.

[MrTREYGOMYEGGO]

funny how ur favorite box art is also ur favorite game of all time

[xJakex77]

the ico cover was awesome

[JasonJ25]

I like the music playing.

[kevinxmamama]

yeah #1 is really nice, the NTCS version doesn't look nearly as good

[CartmanLandZ]

u have a strange tast, u like oldish looking stuff

[gojordon1]

mega man 1 for the win or 9

[dinozor67]

nice choices, another one that catches my eye is the gears of war 1 case.

[Dimebag204]

YEAH I AGREE THAT COVER WAS awesome!!

[FunnyVidMachine]

yeah ur picks are good

[hatefulmoogle]

you should do top ten bosses/villians or somethin like that

[RisingForce1985]

Duck Tales Moon stage. My all time favorite stage song.

[Ahed2548]

Good choices

[apple855]

killzone 2

[PilgortheMighty]

Like your shirt in the beginning DQ8 Nice

[lipsmanalex]

ico looked sick

[albertwesker4ever]

one that always catches my eye is the infamous special edition

agree or disagree

[AngryLoo]

surprised littlebigplanet didnt get a look in there, especially the pal version

[XxxKIMI328xxX]

agree man

[AngryLoo]

thank you

[Makavelizimo]

Where Is Metal Gear Solid 4 Cover

Or Lord Of The Rings(the rise of the witch-king)

And Twisted Metal 2 Cover Better Than Twisted Metal Black 4 the ps2...

[velokaw]

But MGS4 is just a close-up on an old dude's face (sorry Snake). If we're into that sort of box art, I'd say Fallout 2 did it better.

[HaloMetalHead]

Ico looks like Pink Floyd art.

[InfinateGamer]

i agree!!!!!!!!! nice choises!!!!!

[thiefofpeace]

awesome music lol

[TameFan]

Not very nice said cockblocker

[CursaKuma]

what's it to you to judge, he does what he loves, tbh i wish i had this guys room anyday over a mere pair of titties hahaha but that's just my opinion. not hating on the ladies but damn.. this guy has the room of jesus christ himself ( takes a second look at pete,) HOLY O M F G!! :D lol

[amromano03]

i agree with CursaKuma, you can't call people a dork or a geek for doing something that they love. And i bet he has got more pussy than you since you have "cock" in your name (homo).

[BlaknWite29]

nice list, Ico (pal) is my #1 as well, I hate the fact that they changed it for the NTSC version...

[MariosGuy]

the box art for the ps2 brave fencer musashi game looks kind of kool... too bad the game isnt as good -.-

[MariosGuy]

lol i only have golden sun and ffx

[Cormster101]

kul gd choices

[gdguyman]

ico is one amazing box art

[Costokis]

i like super mario all stars i have a boxed set because you pete have encouraged me to collect old games if it wasnt for you id never have collected anything cool i can proove i have a boxed super mario allstrs its in my first video

[captainobvious49]

doom/ sonic cd shoulda bin #1

[MiSha400]

The Box Cover Artwork of Secret of Mana is one of my favorites. I just love nature pictures.

[MiSha400]

You look like Johnny Depp. xD

[AngelOfDeath1897]

i love LotR: Conquest

and even though i don't own it, i might try to get it though, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. i really like how the green label looks next to it :P i dont mind them at all ^^

[doomdude873]

DOOM!!!! it should be in top ten

[TheHappyEmo69]

the box art for altered beast used to scare me when i was a kid

[sayainrevell]

lol whenever i go to my dads we always play like 3hours of zombies at my neighbors

[musicgamer27]

Sweet video Pete! I made one too as a response!

[paranoid711]

Great idea for a video.

[jumblejunkie]

A lot of Genesis classics. They always had great box art.

[Fuelsterister]

lol i actually had unlimited saga on the PS2 lol :D:D dunno where it is now .. i really want to finnish it tthough it is not the best gamne out there.

[gguru1]

I was with Pete when he got that shirt, we were at the mall and you got one for free at a Kiosk for Dragon Quest 8 I believe it was, but they only let us play for about a minute before they kicked us off for "hogging" the game. :P

[RandomVintageGames]

I love the Moon song from Duck Tales. Its probably my favorite video game related song. This is a nice cover too.

[linkbattler]

duck tales?i think i played it before on my gameboy colour few years back.the moon map was seriously hard at the end of the map and i hated the himayalas the snow map.

if i remember...there was ducktales 2 too on gameboy.

[derek11789]

what music is that it is awsome

[PeteDorr]

check the more info box for the mp3 download. It is a remix of the "Moon" song from the NES game Ducktales.

[Hittman720]

Ok my favs were #4 and #2 but can someone tell me what the hell it is (i mean Every Extend Extra) I have seen it so much but have absolutely know idea what it is can some one help me out?

[joeshgamespot]

yea pal ico is great, Ive seen the ntsc one, its god awful. you also have my fave game cover art zombies ate my neighbors.

[derek11789]

do u ever go to E3 or Pax or anything

[Krauser46]

Hey.... You should do a video of the top ten games achievements list.

Sounds weird but I mean 360 games that have achievements that are fun to get.

[PeteDorr]

I am way past the achievements now, I could care less about them, lol.

[Doom2Guy]

Meh, I wouldn't have picked most of them

But it's not a bad list

[pharside1515]

i thought the kingdom hearts covers were pretty cool, but those covers were cool also

[28steryan]

Hey Pete how about doing a list of great games that could become decent movies? I personally think Shenmue would make a good film.

[PeteDorr]

good suggestion...I will keep that in mind :)

[28steryan]

Cheers pal, keep up the good work, it's so much better than regular television and something I am actually interested in, insted of crap such as soap operas.

[bigrockstar41]

So SO True

[J0NNYNI]

hey great vid u should do ur top collectibles

[buffalo27]

Great list Pete....love the ICO boxart

[1988frankcam]

Nice list, it's a shame we didn't get the PAL version of the ICO cover, It's so much better.

[VSXIII]

ducktales ftw great vid pete

[JayhawkertillIDie]

top 10 game soundtracks....top ten most colorfull games...top ten most repetitive games.....ill try to think of something off the wall....im kcchiefs011 by the way....i have two accounts...

[RLMAudio]

nice video...what game is the music in this vid from? it sounds so damn familiar!

[PeteDorr]

It is a remix of "The Moon" from Ducktales on NES. Check the "more info" to the right for the mp3 of it.

[RLMAudio]

lol shit thats right...what a flashback!

[JayhawkertillIDie]

top 10 game mottos....or top ten most adicting games...ten ten most painful levels...(that would be long)

[PeteDorr]

I have a top 10 addicting games up already, check it out :) thanks for the suggestions.

[RLMAudio]

check my left 4 dead vid out when u get a chance...keep up the good work.

[anythingvideogames]

great video and btw my friends always called me weird for liking the twisted metal black cover art

[PeteDorr]

I like it a lot, plays off of the games atmosphere very well. If I ever did a video for "best placed music in a game" I think TMB would be very high up on that list with "Paint it black"...very creepy title screen intro!

[argvideogames54]

nice vid pete!

[b3y0nDLeg3nD]

nice list. Unlimited Saga's box art has always appealed to me

[xxxvulturexxx]

ya wow that #1 cover is very cool... way cooler than the USA release 8/

[GorTheMovieGod]

That Ico box was EPIC!!!

[Viktor1991Neroli]

great video again =) keep up the good work =)

[streetsk8t]

Awesome covers!! I miss Zombies Ate my Neighbors now... :(

[XC4RNAG3X]

I also thought the okami box art was pretty speical.

[PeteDorr]

I was thinking of that one, but for me it was not special enough. Honestly the game has TONS of great artwork like some of the concept art paintings (like the alternate box covers capcom issued which I waited like a year to get in the mail, no kidding) which are filled with so much color.

[XC4RNAG3X]

You still amaze me =].

[Obelisk94]

OMG when I first read the title of this vid, I thought of my top 5 cover arts and, We share the same number 1

[xdarnokx]

Lots of great choices, but I think Shadow of the Colossus should have been up there.

[PeteDorr]

I was gonna add it, but honestly I remember being a bit dissapointed with it when the US cover art was revealed.

[xdarnokx]

There is something about that cover that seems so daunting to me, the wanderer is completely engulfed in the beasts shadow. The first time I saw that cover I immediately had that feeling of tinyness that I had the entire game.

[Electronicman24]

I like wario land shake it cover and heavenly sword cover the best

[PullusPardus]

i would put Castlevania SOTN in the list if i made my own one

[Dragonking50]

nice job on the vid dude! keep'em up!

[tyakack]

i dont get how number 2 is under number 1 the number 2 case looked wayyy cooler

[PeteDorr]

Sorry, I just have a huge liking for my #1 pick...the layout, colors, and abstractness compliment each other too well.

[KcChiefs011]

lol, i didnt think you would notice it..thanks

[PeteDorr]

I read all my comments for every video :)

[GamejunkyCA]

Totally agree with the number 1 pick, was thinking of that cover when I clicked on this video. I wish I could find a wall scroll or something of that cover, it's awesome.

[tiprun]

Secret of Mana! Hells yeah! I've always loved that boxart :D

Also I think Fun on the Moon should be like your theme tune or something! XD

[PeteDorr]

Its a very catchy remix (one of my favorite remixes on youtube for any songs) of the "The Moon" song from Ducktales on NES, so even if I did use it as a theme song I would have to ask permission from the creator to use it. I dont know if I want to start using intros and stuff...I always have a hard enough time making the 10 minute time limit...the intro would haveto be like 15 seconds maximum if I ever made one.

[tiprun]

Haha yeah true, it's also one of my favourite remixes on YouTube, it's extremely well done! :)

but yeah I think an intro should be something you should think about maybe for your future videos, you're getting pretty popular now! :)

[chasewurl10]

you forgot mega man 1

[thewhile]

ima new subscriber :-p cool vids i watched a few, i dont play many video games but id like to. anyway yeah cool vid and good luck on future ones, i'll watch most of em when im on.

[wildcat2k]

Cool, few games Iv never heard of but the by looking at the Box Id like to try them like "Heart of Darkness" and "Every Extended Extra"...kinda like you were talking about in your 90s video where we used to choose based on what the covers looked like.

I have Castle of Illusion for Genesis, its good but too short.

[InvaderMilo]

I'm just glab there was something zombie related.

[leon8878]

love your dragon quest shirt

Heart of darkness i loved that game!!!

Now unlimited saga has great art work in

great vid

[ThinhNguyenEHS]

Love ur video man :D keep it coming. I think FFX has nice cover too.

Btw u ever heard of Dark Cloud 2 for PS2? Did u play it? If you did what u think about it? If you did not i recommend u should try it out since its a great rpg type of game, and you like rpg so maybe that something u want to play loL. Just saying man might play and tell me what u think about it. Peace!! xD

[PeteDorr]

I loved Dark Cloud 1...so much so that I actualy (believe me or not) did not originaly like the direction they went with DC2 (I know I know...they made tons of improvements) I went back to it a few months ago and was enjoying DC2 a lot but due to college starting up again I lost time to play. I think I will play through it again and sometime next year do a dual review for DC 1+2

[ThinhNguyenEHS]

Yea man looking forward for the review :D

[ZGruntProductions]

Nice list
