Seriously
Have you ever bought a videogame just for the cover?

I will buy DOOM for the alt cover.

When I get a job, because I'm broke as fuck right now.

I Bought Disega just based on a magazine ad
>>
>>340295669
I can't think of anything I bought just because of the cover, but there are games I took notice of because of the cover and I liked what I saw when I looked it up, and subsequently bought it.
The cover's job is exactly that, to gain attention. It doesn't necessarily sell the game, but it has an important role in earning a sale.
>>
>>340295669
I only got into the blazblue series because the cover looked interesting. It eventually lead me to check out the Persona series as well so I'm satisfied with that.

It was a different time. Anime was still a fad.

Bungie made this. It would be a few years until they would be known for Halo.

People who bought an N64 for RPG's were cucked except for Paper Mario except that came out in literally the N64's last year


Funny that Wii U's final year has Paper Mario but it's going to be garbage

I don't understand
He looks like an adult man, but has the voice of a low-quality Spongebob impersonator.
>>
>>340299857
He's deliberately doing it because he sexually identifies as a cartoon with a flower on its head. There's examples of his voice before that and he sounds like a perfectly normal beta male.

Skies of Arcadia Legends
Turned out to become one of my favorite games.

I liked any collaborative effort between him and Kevin Bowen.

A simpler time...
>>
>>340301283
I don't find his stuff visually appealing. It's well made but I dislike the style.
>>
>>340295669
Yes.
Turned out to be a totally different game than I expected.
Thought that it would be tactical turn based grid like Disgaea.
Instead it's real time freeroam with cool down abilities.

I heard he became a huge faggot just like every infamous Goon from SA.

>The Legend of Zelda Minish Cap

Shadow of the Colossus. I knew nothing about it and spent like an hour not knowing what to do (skipped cutscenes like a tard) I was riding around like "Tf, no enemies??". Restarted the next day and it's definitely one of my favorite games now and I still got it for PS2 :D

That game was great but I still have to finish it after starting it three times.
