Background graphics are important in the game as they fill the background of the games. Background graphics are used to make the game look nice in the background.

A variety of computer graphic techniques have been used to display video game content throughout the history of video games. The predominance of individual techniques have evolved over time, primarily due to hardware advances and restrictions such as the processing power of central or graphics processing units.

Print media art is important to games, this is because, a lot of people are attracted by colourful art designs for games, whilst others think they look cool or awesome, this is the same with posters,packaging etc.First lets start with game packaging, game packing, lets admit it, is really cool, but only the better editions of games now come with packaging recently. An example of this is "borderlands 2: loot chest edition" and the "borderlands 2" game next to each other.
