We Ski (US) cover:


PAL cover:

(both taken from Amazon)

I can only guess what prompted that change. Anyone else got examples of such discrepancies between regions?

There was an article I read somewhere about this...  The best one was looking at the JPN version of Kirby Air Ride vs. the NA version...

Why isn't it called Ski Training in PAL?

Also the NA destroys the PAL version.

Obviously US is hardtime longcore because everyone on the cover is ticked off.

The worst box art offender ever (seriously, EVER) is the North American Ico box. What the hell was Sony thinking?

The PAL box art for RE4 is also significantly more super-awesome than the NA ones.

I like the cover shown for the Wii Edition of Resident Evil 4. It's subtle. :)

I agree; the PAL version looks spooky.
