The Gears of war 2

I don't know why people are hating on the normal edition of Resistance 2. It looks good

Don't do quick reply, to normal reply and there should be an image button you click so you can paste the link into a pop up box.

Best:

Worse:

Wish it was real:

Left 4 Dead's Boxart was kind of a letdown. I like the concept playing off the title (The New Boxart is a Left Hand, with 4 fingers, and looks dead) but that green really puts me off. A nice solid black would look great.

Best, even though this game is insulting to fans:

The Resistance 2 Collector's Edition box art (above) is pretty awesome, IMO.

What game is that?

Hard to explain :) TENSION is an action-adventure I guess, where combat is based on drawing shapes with mouse.

Just watch this trailer:

and read a bit about their previous game Pathologic here:

That sounds very cool, I check up on it, thanks.

Epic.

Worst:

It looks like shovelware!

Best, or at least pretty good:

Its Japanese, but still.

TAKE_IT_BACK

I actually prefer Deadly Creatures too Tales. Sure Deadly Creatures looks like a boxart for a really bad movie or a National Geographic promoted game but I still like it.

I also like this boxart.

For a boxart I dislike.

IMO, the Resistance 2 standard edition and the Gears 2 are the worst boxart.

The best boxart for me are Fable II and LittleBIGPlanet

Dead Space's and Left 4 Dead are the worst for this holiday. II-FBIsniper-II

I wish it wasn't only AdrianWerner who paid attention to adventure games here. Gotta respect the coolest genre ever, guys.

My favorite

AdrianWerner

So it's not Dracula: Origin anymore huh? ;)

But at least you chose something that is meaningful this time. It's all about strokes and colour, and this boxart does the game justice.

I quite like this one. It gets the job done:

Best: Fable 2

Worst: Left 4 Dead, it's just horrible.

like harry potter?

best b.a:fable 2 or resistance 2 CE

worst:left for dead, AND resistance 2

Since most of the popular ones were said already, I think the boxart for Spiderman: Web of Shadows looks pretty cool:

One of the worst ones I've seen (with the exception of all the shovelware) is Tony Hawk's Motion:

So do I

^ One of the best.

Hope the game is half as good as the box-art

:|I really wish that was a joke boxart..

BEST BOX ART EVER

Best

Persona 4-but since someone already posted the cover, I'll just post the pic that caught my attention and got me interested in the game. I loved Persona 3 but didn't even know the P4 existed until I saw the artwork. :P

Worst

Left For Dead-I was really disappointed when I saw the cover. It's funny really, Valve makes AMAZING games that can easily trump modern competitors in terms of gameplay, immersiveness, and wit, but recently, they utterly fail when it comes to making interesting boxarts.

Lol, I agree. Look at The Orange Box, they were going for something simplistic, but thats just too much.

My list for fav Box art:

1. Gears of War 2
2. Fallout 3
3. Saints Row 2

Those are picked on Box office art alone based on cheer art direction etc... Nothing to do with the actual game or console it's on lol

And I think resistance is bad. It's too spaced out and looks average from an artisitc point of view in terms of using the dimensions you're working with and where you eyes go to. Gears of War has the kind of cover people use for those star wars LOTR kind of big posters.

Fallout's is good as well as Saints Row 2 artistically. As usually though it's Gear's amazing arti direction and use of colours and blends that makes it the best IMO.

I understand some may not like it but to say it's the worst is hilarious and just more about liking to hate a big game rather then actual judgement on an artistic merit.

As far as the worse. That Dead Space one is pretty darn bad lol

Fifa 09 is pretty bad too..

I also think COD's box art is bad but not the worse but a huge letdown for a big game IMO

Oh and I think Left 4 Dead is fine. It's not great but it's more of a non serious box art take on that kind of genre. I think the fact that it has four fingers for the title kind of gives that away so it's not to be taken seriously lol I think the colour choice is bad though... but worst? Not close

Awesomeness

BEST !!

Everytime you recognize the adventure genre, I respect you more and more.

I forgot about Fallout 3 CE, thats the cover of the lunch box, right?

Thats my pick for favorite.

BEST BOX ART EVER

Kratos-PS3

Eh it aint all that.

So it's not Dracula: Origin anymore huh? ;)FrozenLiquid
