A wonderful collection of entries again, with some amazing ideas and work, it just shows that the standard get higher each year.
Well done to all finalists, great work. This will be very difficult for the judges.

WOW – Unfortunately I didn’t find the café till just before the end of this contest, but I will be entering the next. I wish I could do what these
people do.
I love the entries from dcloud and orb of light, there entries look amazing I wish I could do what they can. I
guess I have a lot of learning to do. I was surprised not to see orb of light as a finalist but pleased to see both of dcloud’s.
Amazing work, to all. Mike :notworthy

OOH! I made it to the finals! Woo hoo! (though looking through them, I'm pretty sure that's about as far as I'll get).
All great choices! Congrats to all!
So many hard choices for the people's choice vote! Wow.
Thanks again to the judges and to all the sponsors for the prizes so the Cafe can have a contest like this! :)
...or did I?

Kudos to all the participants, and congratulations to the finalists for all their hard work and creative effort.
Without taking anything away from that, I do have a word for the selection committee. The challenge was to design a video game cover, yet how many
real-world covers do not contain game platform headers, age rating symbols, or game developer logos? While these elements may be add-ons to the base
image, without them the game cover is incomplete.
Perhaps I am wrong about this, but in the past what impressed me most about the winning entries was that they looked exactly like what they were
supposed to be. Whether a cereal box or a billboard, all of the elements of a real-world product were represented. I, for one, would like to see this
standard maintained.

Great contest. As it was already said, the judges had alot of great entries to choose from. That being said... there were a lot more great entries
maybe good enough to be a finalist. Great job to all and this was alot of fun. Remember to keep this one on your calender.
