After one of my friends mentioned Fable II, I did a Google search looking for a review and found that I had an interest in the game before even reading one sentence about it. Why? Box art. There’s just something about good box art that draws me in. From there I will determine whether or not I’m interested based on other facts, of course, but I love me some good box art. In the case of the Fable II Collector’s Edition box art, it’s the subtlety of the shadow that made me like it so much. I dunno, when I saw it I was just like “sweet!” I love little things like that on video game boxes.

I especially love great-looking game boxes because they make for wonderful trophies you can proudly display on your desk or shelf. For instance, one of my all-time favorite game boxes is the Knights of the Old Republic box, and I just love to look at it. I’m likely biased because it also happens to be my all-time favorite game…but still, I think the cover art is just awesome. It screams “riveting galactic adventure.” And that’s exactly what you get.

Bastila will have to count as your anime babe for this post. ;P
