i have been getting a few games from the bargain bins at eb games (pacific islands version of gamestop) and they have those generic cover arts of crayons or targets and an ad on the back.

where is the best place to get the 360 cover arts from these days?

I'm sure you could download high resolution cover art from the internet and print it out to fit the game box. It won't be the prettiest thing in the world, but it will be easy, cheap and will look better than the bargin bin label.

Good point darth. it won't be pretty if you haven't got a color laser printer lol.

I'm lucky enough to have a color laser printer at home in my office. You can't tell the difference when you put the prints into the covers. Smile

console covers is definitely the better one ive come across, they are high res enough to pass for original and its well archived and layed out, i got the 6 i need for now so from now on i should only need the odd title. there are also ntsc and pal covers as well a user submitted custom covers which are sometimes better.

next ill look for some dvd or xbox covers to replace any broken ones and make a book shelf lol
