How about this classic on ZX spectrum. Anyone who's played this will agree- cut off the head! Lol

I just really like how brilliant Atari 2600 game boxart really is. Coming from an era in which digital animation didn't exist yet, they just always did a really great job with beautifully hand drawn boxart like Missile Command.

I do agree, Atari and early home computers had some of the best and weird art ever imaginable. Just look at hover bover!

I remember that PacMan game. I didn't know the box art had a hologram.

I know about the Pacman game, but I don't remember such a cover image. Games like pacman, sonic are a world classic, there are those who do not know these games.
