Which PC game has the best box (packaging) Increase the size of your Attachments

Yes, this is all superficial. I'm sure there are many games that look cool on the box, that turned out to be duds.

I'm one of those guys who keep their game boxes (though I did throw some away when I moved accross country and didn't have enough room to pack everything). I'm still looking thru mine and haven't decided yet.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

I really can't decide. I think I'll go with SMAC, though Diablo 2 is pretty close.

Put an end to popups!

I can't bring myself to throw out my boxes either. I am rather fussy about the condition of game cases and such.

I bought Fallout 2 on impulse because of the box art, so I guess that is my nomination.

Fallout 1 had very awesome packaging. They tried to make it look like a fallout kit and had it open up from the bottom (they art was tilted so instead of the flap on the right, it was on the bottom).

The Baldur's Gate 2 Collectors Edition was great as well .

I agree with General Ludd, but the Hostile Waters box is the one I have i like most, although the other logos on the front spoil it a bit. Great game too.

Neverwinter Nights Gold. The color and logo are stylish, and its not cluttered up with a lot of goofy art.
But that's just my +1 . . . oops, 'two cents.'
