Okay, so I picked up the latest issue of EGM and the freebie that came with it was none other then replacement game covers. Woo! I loved the new Zelda Wind Waker one (except for the fact that it was American rather then Eurpoean, so different spine :( ), and it promptly was cut out and inserted. Which got me thinking...

If you could replace any of the box sleeves for a game, which one would you change and why?

Personally, I would change the sleeve for Half Life 2, and just replace it with the Logo. I never was that keen on having Mr Freeman on the cover, it just didn't seem right. Anyway. Let's hear your suggestions, and if anyone out there would actually like to make these sleeves, we'd all be in your debt.

Here's the original box (the version I have is EXACTLY the same, only it says DVD-ROM in the top left rather then CD-ROM). I'd just have the logo in the center of the box on a black background, rather then a (somewhat) unattractive picture of a man putting everyone off. Anyway! Your turn.

I'd have the front of the American box art for Silent Hill 3 changed to the PAL version:

Something about the PAL cover is... Interesting. It's got more of a creepier look to it than the American cover.

I'd also change the Breath of Fire 2 box. Ryu reminds me of He-Man on that cover. >_>

Other than that, I like most of the box art for the rest of the video games I own. Tales of Symphonia's is really nice, though.

I would change every "Platinum" or "classic" classified game to get rid of the pointless outer bit that merely makes the front ugly and reduces your view of the game cover. All I need to know is that the game has gone cheaper!

I'd definitley change the sleeve of Luigi's Mansion. It's just too plain. I'd like to change it to something that's kinda mixed in with the Gohst Busters' logo.
