Posters, what happend...

Post by RyaNtheSlayA »

I noticed in most of my PC games and in my older SNES, Gene, and N64 games that they came with free posters, most of which i felt were awesome (Wing Commander SNES RULES)

GTA series always have some. Anyway, nowaday extra stuffs like that will go into the "Special" or "Limited" edition and will cost you some extra $.

I'm with you on the posters. I've been getting quite a few old Sega games on eBay and it's great when you find a poster still with the game. Just got a cool looking ToeJam & Earl Poster. More game companies should starting bringing back that concept.

I have a Mario Kart Wii poster that I got for free from my local EB Games.

I love the old posters. I have several Genesis-era posters on my wall over the TV. My favorite is the one for Dragon's Fury, which has a huge dragon holding a giant pinball. It measures 17 by 22 inches!

It's the same with music. LP's used to come with posters. CD's hardly ever come with anything anymore. It's sad, really.
