I prefer the white background ones, I got both FFIII and Revenant Wings imported and I much prefer the ones I see in the shops round here, but well, I wanted them early and it was cheaper to buy them offline but I still prefer the European ones

They just look better imo

I like the full picture covers that the US and Japan do. The European ones don't look bad, but in comparison to the color ones I find them bland and boring.

The European ones look far better. When I first picked up an FF game (X), I was entrigued by the ghostly woman dancing on water on the logo.

If I saw Tidus standing in the water, I probably would never haver bothered, and I probably wouldn't be here now.

I completely prefer the stark white backgrounds with Amano's gorgeous artwork so elegantly drawn across them. He is truly a master genius. There's soo much mystery in the less complex, simple, beauty of those covers. Our ' lovely ' US covers, and I'm being sarcastic here, make me want to gag. Now, some are better then others - I really enjoyed VII's cover, way back when, and a few others - still I prefer the white background and the logo.

^ I agree. I've seen the NTSC covers, and they don't have quite the effect of the covers here, in all their glory. The PAL covers are much better, IMO, because of their mystique and simple looks, and also that they give a traditional story book feel, at least at the front. Why there are completely different covers anyway, I don't have a clue.

The simple, clean covers of the PAL copies are far more classy and stick out a lot more. The NTSC ones look quite poor in general, some I do like but most don't seem that great.

I'm the same, I reckon that the PAL covers look better than the NTSC versions...although, I like the NTSC versions of Crisis Core, FF1 (PSP) and FF2 (PSP) covers better than our covers.

They both look really good, but PAL just generally looks better to me.
