This is the US cover for the already critically acclaimed Playstation 3 title, Uncharted 2. Not bad. Lots of action and hanging. The game appears to be quite the harrowing adventure for The Everyman, Nathan Drake. Can't wait to finally play it.
Hrm... I though the Japanese cover was pretty silly at first, but I kind of like the style of putting everything in the fucking game right on the cover. I'm not happy about the spoiler though. I didn't want to know that the big red bus crashed because it ran into a giant ancient knife. Really though, I hope the cover helps this game sell in Japan. Ok, now I'M the one who is silly.

I was going to say the Japanese Drake looked pretty smug but after viewing it longer, I'm not sure if it is smug or incredibly creepy or both.

I'm pretty sure though that Sully in the Japanese cover looks like a Smug Bruce Willis…..

The pedophile look from Nathan would instantly make me turn away and look at the giant Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter display instead. If I were Japanese...

...wait. I don't get it. Why is this the "FU Gamefly edition"?
Other than that, the cover on the American box art screams EPIC. The Japanese box art screams CHARACTERS/LOVE TRIANGLES.
I think this has to do with what David was discussing during one of his podcasts while in Japan, and how Western games brought to Japan are being played only by the "hardcore" gamers. I think the change in box art is trying to entice the non-hardcore types to buy into the game.

It's FU Gamefly edition because they haven't sent out a rental copy. Not sure why not owning a PS3 is holding you back from buying. Surely you'd have/get a PS3 if you didn't have access to Davids.

Brad, you forgot that the American version has a 5 out of 5 tag on it. I'll make a post

Take the two guys off the cover,replace them with a full-body picture of Chloe. There's your winner.

just finished this game. simply amazing, Nathan drake is probably my new favorite video game character. Mainly because of his sense of humor and how its so perfectly cut into the game.

the characters look really wonky but i really like the concept. looks like an old school adventure poster for a movie or a book.
since a lot of the charm comes from the dialogue and homages to american films, i wonder if any of that translates into the japanese culture/language. hope it's at least recognized in japan.

Haha. I love how retro looking the Japanese cover is. It's like a long lost NES game.
