Welcome to finally another box from me.

First actual part of my 'simplicity is key' series.
That being said, keep that one sentence in mind, as i have tried to make the box outstanding without making it crowded, as i tend to do.

There are some graphical choices i'm not used of making, such as Amaterasu NOT looking at you, and the shit-load of text on the back, but i found out that with the right [ amount ] of tricks and paragraphing of the text, it looks good.

i love the game, and i love how this box came out.
Definetly, one of my best pieces so far , in my opinion.

Enjoy!


-edit- wow,o.o thanks you guys!
Omagah, ryan.. you got your account back?
And already your comment makes no sense xD!
thanks though,everyone ;)

change the PEGI to black, I can barely see it, and make it larger. Clover Studio doesn't really exist anymore, so have a Capcom logo instead. The front looks kinda boring, maybe make Amaterasu a little larger so he takes up some more space. At the moment, it's ok, but it's not really very interesting, and I'd like to see something a little more original for Okami.

#8, the pegi is visible enough, and i tried making it black, but that just RUINS the entire simple flow of the box.

That being said, i believe you've got something against either simplicity or me, or your opinion just differs too much from mine.

Sorry if my box isn't up to your standards, as i did my best.

Nice, but that tagline's gotta be one of the worst I've seen.

It seems everyone these days uses simplicity as an excuse... most of the time, it's ok, for games like Portal and whatnot. but for a very arty game like Okami, it needs to be more vibrant and stylish. The game focuses on an ancient Japanese painting style, so I think you should try and incorporate that into the design, somehow... I like what you did with the blossoms, but for the most part, it's fairly boring. And developers nearly ALWAYS have a conflicting coloured PEGI on the front- if it's a white background, it has a black rating, and vice versa. You can see the actual "12+" but the entire rating has to be seen. You should do the same on the back, too. I can't say "it doesn't live up to my standards" because mine are much different from yours, but it doesn't really live up to the standard one would expect from a Rank 9, or even just someone's who made over 150 boxes in a year and a half, or whatever.

#9, simplicity and minimalistic design is the enemy on this page :)

however... I guess you should try to get the flames on th efront to the left side. looks a bit unbalanced to me (maybe due to the Wii-Logo that´s always taking more space than the left side of the upper part on the front - hope you understand XD)

# 11: agree at the excuse thing, but are we talking about the same anchient japanese art? there`s a lot of such stuff link

besides I think everything can be done in a rather minimalistic/simple way even though this can be a real tightrope walk cause plainness is pretty close

Amaterasu is female, as far is know ;)

The only thing I dont like is the PEGI should be black (like Vengeance pointed out) and you should of used a Capcom logo instead of Clover. But I like the overall simplistic design of the box so a fav from me ^^

#14, please stop.

Looking through your comment history, I see immature fart jokes, comments about sex, and comments like that one.

I think the box is really nice, I love the white/grey color scheme and typography. Vekta just made an annoying non-constructive comment and acted as if the Hall of Fame should only suit his taste, whether that is his intention or not.
