Box art / content thread - post your collection! keep'r goin
Ok I'm finally starting the old game box art and content thread for anyone and everyone to post pics of their games. Feel free to post PC , Mac, console...whatever game type boxes. Consoles used to have great box art in the day too like Atari, Intellivision, Genesis,SNES and such.
You don't have to own the game to post your pics. It can be ones you remember as being cool. But it would be better if you can posts the stuff in them for others to see.
I'm also providing a link to this thread from the PC and the console area of the board. Maybe we can keep this one going a good while. I know I love old boxes and what you find in them.
Im starting out with a classic that at the time was pretty controversial.
ULTIMA 8 PAGAN:
Box content:
The usual install and warranty cards
Manual
Cloth map in full color
Pagan pentagram coin
CD in hard case
Released 1994.....keep in mind this is NOT a collectors edition. The coin and map came with normal editions in those days.

I bought Alien Logic solely on the basis of its awesome cover.

Now here's something to mess with your mind. Imagine what it would look like if you had boxes for every Steam game you own!

Go to your Steam library tab, and then on the top right choose grid view. I just used print screen to screen capture it.

While I love digital content, I do miss boxes. They just looked cool. I do not miss how much room the boxes took up.

Yet another reason to switch to boardgames. Large boxes, manuals, expansion boxes, it's all still happening!Kelric wrote:While I love digital content, I do miss boxes. They just looked cool. I do not miss how much room the boxes took up.

You need to find gamers in the area that already play and play with them. It's what I've done. And then I run stuff on the forums.
It's almost as if people are the problem.
