This is not real. Capcom Eurosoft have no plans at all to bring the game to PAL territories. Plus, it looks terrible too O_o

o.O

The CG characters on there look terrible. I much prefer the art used for the PAL/JPN versions, shown here beside the US version:

I know stuff like this is all subjective and matter of opinion...but Christ there's some terrible choices in this thread haha! I mean, i'm all for simplistic artwork myself...but MGS1? It's just some writing on a white background, the pure definition of boring!

My favourite Resi artwork is probably the black and white Resi 4 Wii Edition cover for the UK. My favourites in general tend to be the ones from years and years ago that stick with me now, stuff like the cartoony covers from the 80s on the Amstrad.

Yoji Shinkawa artwork >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CG.

The Japanese MGS4 cover > US MGS4 cover for this same reason.

See?

Matter of opinion...yup. I love that cover. It's simple and to the point.

I don't think it's boring...I think it's classic.

Wow, that looks cool. Different.

The gameplay videos for that look pretty cool. Haven't bought a MK game since 3, though, I think.

hahaha YES! That's what i'm talking about! I'd considered Fantasy World or Magic Land Dizzy actually, games i have a sentimental attachment to.
