just another reason to buy a playstation 4.
I don't have one yet, but don't play on buying any new games, I have a backlog of about 14 games right now and I made a promise to myself I would beat them before obtaining a PS4 but it's harder and harder everyday haha.

Why they do this? It's better to leave each box with their respective look

It seems pretty dumb from a marketing standpoint. Are they intentionally trying to confuse customers?

At least I shouldn't have to worry about it. Any multi-generation games that I'm buying from here on out are for PS4. Hopefully this crap doesn't end up on any PS3 exclusives that I want.

My poor PS3 shelf is going to start looking confused, what with both red AND blue spines!

Unless they change the PS4 format a bunch of times as well :-\

Oh, I have no doubt that PS4 artwork will change eventually too. But unfortunately that's to be expected at least once a generation now days. Not that I won't be pissed when it happens anyways, but I expect it.

Well at least we have talented artists that can convert between the styles easily.

This new box art is going to suck. Hopefully as Arseen was saying, you guys can convert them to standard looking covers. And luckily it may not be so bad because according to the article the only change will be the top of the cover art being blue instead of an entire redesign

when xbox 360 changed looks, they did it in such a subtle way that the games don't look so drastically different on a shelf.  i liked that.  oh well.  customization time, i suppose.

I kinda like it, doubt I will change all my covers to that style though.
