If that's the case, it would also make it easier for me to press that whole background pure black instead of the scanned equivalent....

It is not really THAT bad. Just a tiny bit partially.
You can try to make the back solid black with the maigc wand tool in ps by the way.

Ok, well here is a version where I cleaned up the back a bit then. Yeah, I guess I was going overboard. I totally forgot about that I could use the magic wand/paint bucket tools. :D

I was curious and took a quick look at it. Couple points.
1. Noticed some moire effect on the logo on the spine, back and the front cover.
2. The KOEI logo on the spine has some black on the border. What i suggest is right clicking the layer
Blending Options > Color Overlay > White
and that should make it completely 1 solid color.
3. Since the magic wand doesn't get all of the back black click on
Image > Adjustments > Levels
the left tab adjusts the darks the right tab adjusts the whites and the middle controls the balance. Just adjust the left tab a few points to darken up any areas that require it eg. the middles of letters like "o" "e" etc etc. The right tab will bring out the whites in the barcode area and patents box.
Or you can do what a few of the guys and I do, and just retype the back. ;D

@irvgotti: Actually I'm one of those types who doesn't like retyping too much. for legal text and barcode yes but for the back text I kinda try to avoid it. I just feel that it looks more retail with the original back text on it than retyped cause you never find a 100% font.
On a side note here is the next one from me:
Couldn't believe we had no cover for THAT game on our site. Loved it like crazy as a kid. ;D

Looks like you've been pumping out covers at a pretty good pace lately tik! Allow me to handle the NTSC Retail for that one! ;D
