that was the game’s selling point, though! like, to get across spike pits, you had to throw an enemy in there and jump on them

oh yeah i mean, it seems dope, just very funny that the only box art with the phrase “TORTURE YOUR ENEMIES” happens to be for the nation fondest of doing just that

Look, according to the back of the box it’s the first game to ever let you torture your enemas (edit: this was the auto-correct so it must be right) so it’s a very big accomplishment. It oozes the baditude of the 90s while simultaneously sounding like a fake game.

to be fair after ~650 posts we’ve mined a lot of the low-hanging fruit and I’d love to see this thread also include disc art, manual art, and strategy guide art
i’ve been noticing that a lot of famitsu guides have pretty interesting art:
Persona
Tales of Eternia
Tales of the Abyss (Remind’s me of Fennesz’s Black Sea album cover…)
Tales of Destiny 2

I used to have this. If you can’t tell, this cover is somebody wearing a St. Hermelin uniform with one of those cheap cut-out masks over his face of the protagonist!
