North America got here in second with 6%, and eventually Europe with 5%.
This week, we’ll be taking a look at an iconic GameCube remake. No, not Resident Evil. It is Silicon Knights’ tackle Hideo Kojima’s masterpiece, Steel Gear Strong: The Twin Snakes.

*boop*
You should definitely solid your votes within the ballot beneath; however first, let’s try the field artwork designs themselves.
Europe / Japan
Okay, so Europe and Japan’s tackle The Twin Snakes’ field artwork is fairly iconic, proper? It utilises the paintings of collection veteran Yoji Shinkawa to stunning impact, portraying Strong Snake and Liquid Snake towards a stark crimson background. The brand is within the traditional Steel Gear Strong font that everyone knows and love by now, however there’s additionally a bizarre sort of impact occurring across the title that we’re correct keen on.
North America
The one factor the design for North America has in widespread with Europe and Japan is the title font… That is it. In any other case, Konami went for an altogether extra western method to the general design right here, swapping out the illustration from Shinkawa with what appears to be like like in-game renders repurposed for the picture. Once more, it is Strong Snake and Liquid Snake, in fact, and we will see Steel Gear Rex looming within the distance. As it’s, it is a fairly neat design, however when in comparison with the Shinkawa model..? Hmmm, we’re undecided.
Thanks for voting! We’ll see you subsequent time for an additional spherical of the Field Artwork Brawl.
