Cover looks great.

I bet the guys that are bitter are the same guys that do custom covers. They'll have a hell of a time trying to make different versions this season.

As for being outdated, maybe he owned ASB '05 and is used to perhaps considering that as a "title of the past". See for reference: And I'll have to agree that the ASB cover is much better for this style, anyway. The font overlaps the player, the blue background meshes better with a Yankee uniform, balance is much better appropriated, and that light show in the background gives the background some "busy-ness" and "flashiness" without being too distracting.

I always noticed this since way back when...but 2k5 also used the same Jeter picture from the ASB 05. Just looks like they photoshop'd his face/body a bit and the glove.

^ LOL that's a different picture, but you're right that it's basically the same action shot.

I'll do some custom covers following the template that SCEA made, but not based on requests, just on my own time. I don't have much time to do them as is, and I only have Photoshop 6.0 to work with, using a very slow computer. We'll see what other players can look good with this new design.

but Jeter does look weird in the 2k5 box though

his head is like way smaller for his body and it's just something that's not right with that cover.

LOL, that wont be much of a worry since this will be the only game in the PS3 all season long !!!

Yeah, almost like they photo-shopped Jeter's head on top of his body from different shots.

I think the cover is great, but I could do without the ESPN quote. We all know The Show is fantastic, we don't need ESPN to tell us that. Reminds me of the box art from Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.... "5 out of 5" Official PlayStation Magazine. On the later covers; 25 PERFECT REVIEW SCORES. Yes, the game is phenomenal we know. It detracts from the box art IMO.
