Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection has a new Box Art

Looks very different from the original.

[Adexus]

That looks pretty awful compared to the original.

[UserNameIsNotTaken]

I agree. The original was way better.

[InactiveUser]

I prefer this style concept compared to the original (I like when it shows all of the games included), but the design is likely the worst I've seen.

Some have done it right (design-wise):

http://ecx.images-amazon.co...

http://scene7.targetimg1.co...

http://www.gamestop.com/com...

http://media.ign.com/games/...

etc.

I like seeing that there's 2 or 3+ games included instead of a single picture like others did, including Resistance, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, Killzone Trilogy, God of War Saga, Infamous, etc.

At a glance, it looks like there's only 1 game included in those.

seriously, WTH Sony? this looks just like the Triple Pack released on the PS3

They probably just got someone in marketing to put it together.

[Kalebninja]

The point was to be more informative the average consumer doesnt care how pretty the container is but how much theyre getting for their money

[StormLegend]

Kalebninja is right!

[PeaSFor]

totally agree, not saying the original covert is ugly or bad(in fact it look great) but the new one is doing more its job to put emphasis on the 3 different games in the collection.

[Immorals]

People are drawn to good looking things. It's natural, it's human, and retailers use that to their advantage. This cover just looks like a bargain bin compilation game from way back when.

Bad decision, the original cover looked really good.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

That much is obvious. It looks like an advertisement instead of traditional box art. That's why it's so ugly by comparison.

[Neonridr]

yeah, I think Kalebninja is right. The original packaging didn't convey it simply enough that you were getting 3 games in one package.

[Fatdrinkofwater]

I like it. The original box arts were great now you have all 3 front and center.

Also kale makes a good point.

[IIFloodyII]

Yeah, agreed, probably makes more sense business wise, but it's a massive downgrade from the original, be nice if it has a reversible cover, with the original on the inside.

[showtimefolks]

us core gamers know that the collection has 3 games. But when a parent or grandparent walks into gamestop seeing 3 games in one will get their attention

i am sure there will be more than enough of original covers available

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Available where though? On the internet, to have to be printed on glossy paper?

[uth11]

Looks like packaging for a budget title, maybe it's getting a price cut?

[XanderZane]

Yeah, I liked the original art myself. Wonder why they changed it? Oh well, what's inside is still great anyways.

3 Great Games Remastered by Awesome Bluepoint Games.

[Paytaa]

Wow that just looks like a magazine ad slapped on a PS4 box. The original is way better.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

I miss the Uncharted 4 beta so much ;/

[TripleCs]

I had ordered the UC Collection online and it took 11 days for it to come. By the time it came the beta was already over but at least I got the collection for $28. No way I was gonna pay $60 when I have all 3 games on the PS3 already.

At least you got to play the beta. I missed the beta :=(

[Heyxyz]

I'm in the same boat...

[Vitalogy]

I agree. From the "12 Christmas Deals" the EU had, this collection was there for €29,99 and this is the price it should have been since the very beginning. As a previous owner of these 3 games I passed them even in the "deal" early this month. I don't support milking cows.

[Paytaa]

The beta was awesome. It's the perfect balance of competitive and stupid fun so anyone can enjoy it. Plus the 60fps makes it the smoothest current gen third person game on consoles.

I never played Uncharted for it's multiplayer before but I'm excited for both the campaign and MP this time around.

Uncharted 4 is going to be special.

[MrSwankSinatra]

It was really good, most fun i've had when it comes to mp in a long time.

[ShadowKnight]

Same here! The beta was amazing!

[ShadowKnight]

The best TPS multiplayer currently!!

[Artemidorus]

It's more for the people who don't play games and buy them.

It's what I would of done if I were providing three great games for one price on a cover and selling to the masses.

[ClayRules2012]

Sweet Niblets, that cover sure is ugly looking "In my opinion"

Having said that, Uncharted 1-2 are awesome games. So, just don't look at the Box Art. Everything will be okay, lol.

Uncharted 4, the wait for you is so painful =(

[DivineAssault]

Thats ugly as sin.. Glad i got my original while it was on sale.. This look like a bargain bin 3pack of PS3 games..

[GamingTechUnited]

Wow. Now that is baaaad. It's very informative for the average customer though. I think we all forget that we really aren't your average everyday consumer. Haha.

[JoeDaniel]

"has a new box art".. the great English always displayed here on N4G lol

[ginsunuva]

I cringed at the price quote

[MasterofMagnetism]

Looks ok but I like the original cover more.

[Zizi]

I prefer the original boxart. This one is extremely terrible!

[esmittystud101]

All I know is I get to play Drake's Fortune, A Thief's End, Drake's Deception, Tomb Raider D.E., Rise of The Tomb Raider, and Uncharted 4 all in a six month period for the first time.

Worked out great for me. They could have put a gopher on the box art and I would have still bought it. LOL

[PersonMan]

Does that mean that I now have a rare box?

[_LarZen_]

Anything is better then the original. Don't misunderstand me. The original is nice but it does a poor job at conveying it's a collection of all the games.

So this new one is much better in my opinion.

[sk8ofmnd]

I gave this remaster a spin. I think the fact that i played these games a unhealthy amount to begin with the coat of new paint was less appealing. Was i the only one that thought not having the mp with this was a huge missed opportunity? That and i thought the remaster didnt look leaps and bounds better than the originals.

[svoulis]

I think they choose this box art for a simple reason. People who know nothing of the series may not think they are getting 3 actual games in one. They probably did this just to assure that you as a consumer know what you're getting.

I agree the original is leaps and bounds better, maybe it should have a flip cover and the original should be on the other side.

[theFAYEsorceress]

still bummed out that the collection didn't have any online/co-op modes :c

[Tedakin]

Definitely liked the other one better. This is pretty basic.

[jeenyus]

Looks like the pirated version.

[AstroCyborg]

is this a bootleg version
