You spent £900 on 1 issue of Edge?

I think it suits it.


Terrible cover of a terrible game.

Ah, that's better. You may be a thief, but you're not stupid.

Do GamesTm, and did Edge, need to go to every publisher and get the artwork approved or licensed? It must take so long to sort this out.

I'll try to track down the Resident Evil 4 and Ocarina of Time editions. Hopefully, I'll have greater success with these than I did with EDGE.

They really ought to fire their design department, they are awful. Firstly, do you really need to put the name of the game on the cover? Surely the design and the game imagery should be strong enough to show what that game is. Secondly, that box with the 100 greatest games bit in just doesn't fit the design of the rest of the cover.
The best ones are the really simple ones such as the Crazy Taxi one or the Wipeout one but the extra text just ruins it.

Hate this sort of thing. Seems cynical

The Another World and BioShock ones are nice. As someone said, not as well done as Edge's version of this but still.

To be fair, Vib Ribbon is one of the best games ever :shifty: But there are so many generic space marine covers on there, Mario Galaxy isn't as good as those, really? :x

Greatest Games Ever?

Some questionable choices there, though.

What did GRcade decide was the greatest game ever? Didn't we vote on that a while ago?
