I absolutely adore all the character art in KitN

It just has such a unique style to it and all the character classes feel like they belong to the same army with coordinated color schemes.

This one. It shows he means business, and gives off mafia vibes. I really wish we'd get a game where its the underworld set in the SNK universe. A Scarface type game with Geese. Mr Big, Duke or someone trying to take Geese tower, Geese busts through the wall REPPUKEN! "Say hello to my little friend" kinda scene. You know you'd want it.

alright.

Any videogame with a hot anime girl on the cover would do. If it has more than one, better :)

This belongs in every videogame cover art thread. Simply beautiful. Maybe someday I'll finally get around to playing the damn game too.

I saw this thread and IMMEDIATELY checked to make sure someone had posted SoM. I genuinely think it’s one of the most beautiful and profound pieces of art I’ve ever seen, and it perfectly encapsulates what makes the game so special, specifically the theme of the balance between nature and humanity and the sense of awe at a world that is quickly disappearing.

the cover for the original kh2 brings back pleasant memories. i even have a poster of it on my wall, although its a little stretched wide compared to the original. im too lazy to find one that keeps the original proportions.
