Virtual On for PSN/XBLA: "no comment"

East vs West: Cover Art

Brash Games writes "I appreciate that art is in the eye of the beholder and all that, but honestly, can you tell me with a straight face that the Japanese examples of cover Art aren’t in a completely different league to their Western counterparts".

East tends to be more artsy, while west tend to be simpler.

Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 3 is probably the only case(within the article) where west cover art actually looks better, to me anyway.
