This is gonna sound kinda corny, but I think PSU's is awesome. One of my other favorites would have to be Disgaeas. It just screams awesomeness. If you can, post a pic...

What makes it especially awesoem is that it's the cover art for a puzzle game.

I don't think I have a favorite box, but my favorite add campaign was Obsidian. I think one of their commercials is on youtube, most cool.

I believe this was originally intended to be the box art for MM2.

Speaking of WTF box art, I actually remember this one:

I didn't care for how they dumbed down Gracie's character, and I never cared for Tim Curry as Gabe's VA. Seemed a bit "me tooish" with the Da Vinci Code being hot at that time too. Otherwise it was great. Clever puzzles, excellent story, decent graphics (for the time), good music. Weakest in the trilogy, but still one of the best adventure games available.
Hinds, Harriers, Tanks, Flamethrowers, what else could you ask for?
Dinosaurs.

The gameboy FF remake series. You know, the ones with nothing on them except Final Fantasy x (where 0<x<7).
Call me crazy, but I don't like additional gunk on my game cover. All I want to know is what it is, and what it's about.

Simple, clean, and still somehow really attractive. Kinda like the White Album cover, only with espionage!

Oh yeah, here's the original Megaman box art. Pencil crayons ftw.

"They're atop, in and out of fortified prison-like structures strengthed with thick walls. Below icefields. Hidden amid gun turrets imbedded in concrete uprights, even in subterranean passages under icefields. Wow!"
Sadly, they mention the icefields twice...and I always hated Ice Man's stage. Also, the first Megaman's boxart always reminded me of a chimpanzee, much like from the Lawnmower Man, when the experimental chimp got out with his little suit and was mistaken as a 'superhero'.

QFT.
Ya know, there was a lot of people who were wining about the graphics, because "they sucked".
*facepalm*
It's supposed to be comic book-like, get over it. D:<
