Flickr user Cossix and Daphny has a set called "The Selectbutton Collection: videogame boxes if they were in the criterion collection". I had to google The Criterion Collection: it's a "privately held company that distributes consumer versions of 'important classic and contemporary films'" (from Wikipedia). In other words, art. And doesn't it make a difference?
See the full set here.
See also the NeoGAF thread that began all this (given the dates of the images in the sets). Especially that Bioshock one.
