I'm going to go with PAL because I like the way it looks more stealthy. He looks more hidden by the fact that you can just see the light shining up through the grate, showing that he's in a dark area.

I also like the way he's holding the silenced pistol like he's about to take someone out (and no not on a date) :lol:

Also going for PAL. For the same reasons as him along with the fact that it looks cooler than the other 2.

Can this thread cover disc art too or only box art? I think both Rayman 1 (PS1) and Rayman 3 (PS2) discs would be a good one if you can do disc art.

I chewed for so much time between the NTSC-J and the PAL versions.


I'm gonna go for the PAL Version, because what Steo said about the cover made a lot of sense for Splinter Cell. I was gonna go for the NSTC-J because how cool he looked with the face shadowed and the goggles(I think that is what they are) Shining on.

But it is supposed to be suggesting "Stealth" so the PAL makes more sense for it.

The original God of War had some nifty looking cover art, might be a good pick.
NTSC-U:

NTSC-J:

Pal:

Edit: Also, I voted for the NTSC-J Box Art of Splinter Cell, really enjoy how the light from his night vision goggles covers up his face with light shining behind him.

Now that you mention it that does look kind of cool compared to the NTSC-U box due to that. I thought they were just identical apart from his head being rotated, but never paid attention to the lighting.

I think the lighting is a bit oversaturated with the NTSC-U box art, it also shows a part of his chin which I don't think is very appealing with that model.

How long does this poll run until? I forgot how long these polls run. (I already voted :wink: )

I’d love to revive this topic/poll. Anyone who agrees?

I blame Jonster for asking an obvious question, which is why nobody replied. :winkgrin:

But yeah, in all seriousness, we really should revive it. I think it was around the time 3 mods left and then it was just forgotten about, since Ray502 was in charge of it.

I think we should revive this again. I updated the first post to say that God of War PAL won, albeit 14 months later. :lol:

I noticed Beyond Good & Evil was never done, so I'm going to go with that and see how it goes!

I vote NTSC-U. There is something about the way everything is showing out in that cover art that makes me think of a nostalgiac PS1 fighting game for teens.

In my opinion, NTSC-U looks the best because it represents exactly what you do in-game the best and the game overall the best.

I had forgotten to update the topic title to say Poll# 22. :fou:

Anyway, I also vote for NTSC-U myself. It just looks much better to me.

It's nice that the thread is getting some activity since reviving it, and it seems like NTSC-U is going to whitewash the PAL artwork here so far. If anyone has any suggestions for the next poll in advance, please don't hesitate to post them.
