I have had Rodney Greenblat on the brain ever since I wrote yesterday's post about Tsukatte Utau Saru Band (aka Make and Sing: Monkey Band). So, I decided funnel some of that energy into yet another edition of "which box art is better?"
Here are today's contestants:
The Japanese version of PaRappa the Rapper is on top, the North American version is in the middle and the European version is on the bottom.
I don't know about you, but I'm having a hard time picking a favorite. I mean, I like the energy and overall zaniness exhibited in the Japanese version, but I also like the pop-art simplicity showcased in the European and North American versions.
If I absolutely had to choose one over the others, though, I'd go with the North American version. Probably. How about you?

Wow, the first one really leaves the others with little hope.
Ah! See, I'm glad I posted this -- I thought most would prefer the NA version (middle). Will anyone prefer the Euro version? I guess we'll see... Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Actually, I agree with Luminairis. The Japanese art, in my opinion, is MILES ahead of the other two.
Well, I'm glad I started some sort of conversation here -- and I'm glad you two agree, too. I'm sticking with my opinion that all three versions are appealing in some way, though :P
