PC game covers thread (was: Official PC game template)

actually scanning in the jewel case at 600 dpi would be great, all I have left of mine is the black and white instruction book. It would be great if you could!

Baldur's Gate here. I will also be making a cover for the second game that will use this as a template for the first.

Hey I was curious about something, some of those raws you uploaded are the retail dvd covers, so why do you upload them to the raws section?  Unless you figured someone could turn them from stackpacks into standard or something.  Or wait, are those the boxes?

[Hexxxer]

They need to be cropped and cleaned as the original material was a bit scratched. Some people may even want to apply a template onto them for uniformity. I may do it at some point but it won't be soon, if someone decides to do it before me all the power to them.

I just got a copy of gothic I ordered online to get the box   here is the cover I made for it

I decided to take a crack at making my own covers, for the PC ports of Red Faction and GTA: SA. I just used the PS2 cover art for both, just blanking out the PS2 related stuff (left kind of an ugly bit of nothingness on both of them, but I wasn't sure what would look nice there. More screenshots, maybe?) and cleaning up the SA cover a bit.

anyway, I uploaded them, I don't think they look... that.. .bad. any suggestions for improvements are welcome:

actually touched up the pccd one but I don't wanna change the preview picture

*edit* Wow, in a moment of "Why didn't you think of this sooner!" I went to the blizzard website and downloaded the wallpaper they had of the undead and totally fixed this cover, I saved the template too so I could make a night elf, and human dvd cover as well in case somebody had a preference

[Hexxxer]

good stuff all around.

If you could find the system requirements, pc cases usually have that printed on them

I know there are already Diablo 2 and BroodWar covers on the site but I wanted Diablo 2 to be a standard dvd case and I wanted Broodwar to have a different Spine so I edited them a little.  Also I edited the Escape from Monkey Island ps2 cover to use for the pc version, the only thing on it I didn't get rid of thats playstation related is the official playstation magazine comment on the front
