Covers are the New Black: Videogames Reimagined

posted by user Recycle Bin on Something Awful forum

I am a big fan of well-designed covers and thanks to this post on Kotaku highlighting a group of people inspired by Olly Moss’s video game cover redesigns, I was pointed to a bunch of reimagined covers for classic videos like the Super Mario Bros one you see above.  Go on and check them out.  Kotaku has a whole gallery full of them but when you’re done with them, you should definitely take a look at Olly Moss’s set.  I find it interesting that many of the covers are inspired by past iterations of Penguin Classics as well as Saul Bass’s work - I’m a big fan of both and now want to try my hand at a redesign myself!

I love the artwork, seems like South Park did too ;)

I saw these before, and they are fantastic. Now if only Penguin would put these novels out!
