See amazing games re-imagined as book covers

I often find myself reeling at the look and feel of most video game box art and packaging. Many of the current and previous generation's most moving game experiences are often referred to as "art"--which makes me wonder why the cover/packaging has to be so dire and throwaway in design.

So, color me giddy when I discovered A.J. Hatley, a UK artist, who has been reinventing some of the past decade's most moving gaming experiences and capturing them as book covers.

Make with the clicky and see for yourself: 

Most of A.J's work is drastically different than his cover re-interpretations, but I find it all to be rather intriguing.
