That cover is hideous. Looks like some kind of bad fan made photoshop.

Looks terrible, more like a PSN card. Doesn't convey a cross over game at all. They should have just copied SSB:brawl and just had the name then all the characters around it.

Ways Sony could have made this a killer app for Xmas: 1. Paid the licensing for Cloud Strife and Solid Snake to be used as characters rather than possible DLC. Sony fanboys live these two not-exclusive characters. 2. Picked the character that sold the most games this gen (likely Kratos) and slapped his sh!t-eating grin on the front, rather than some dumb-f*ck, no-name, bald, space-marine-looking type (then again, many people look for characters like this on the covers of games these days). 3. Released special edition box art that is only available through preorder, and each featured character is special to a certain retailer. 4. Not held any content back for DLC, thus dividing the online community (unless released for free; but how would that make them money?). Then again, I don't have a degree in marketing, nor do I work for Sony's marketing department. So what do I know?

Cole as a front cover? WTF... Should have chosen Nathan Drake.

That cover is basically terrible.

Something like this would be much better:-

I don't think these are the actual coverart. Sounds like it's some kind of UK only "limited edition" promo featuring certain characters, either limited edition covers or maybe a slipbox/tinbox kind of thing..

The actual cover art I see shows a bunch of characters, not just one. I think this is the official cover? http://www.gamestop.com/ps3/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/101765 There is a UK one also that is different, but stil features multiple characters and not just focusing on 1 character.

This cover is a mistake, it should show all of the characters, not just one. It is a party fighter, this cover does not say this, and besides if they are going to focus on one character they should use Drake not Cole.

Well the name, graphics, roster and artwork so far have all sucked so I won't be surprised if the final box art sucks too. Let's just hope it plays well because I really want this game to be good.

You would think that since they completely copied SSB, they would have had plenty of time to create a decent box art.

Shouldn't it have all of the characters in the frame? What were they thinking making Cole the focus?

Yeah they should have everybody on the front.

Agreed.

Indeed. At least it's not an eye sore to look at.

I mean this a fan made one I just found and I think it captures the overall idea of the game much better:

now this actually looks pretty good. the actual cover of the game Sony came up with is pretty weak and plain.

This is from one site and if you purchase from that retailer they had many different boxarts that had one character as the focus and the winner of the contest was the boxart that you get when you purchase the game from that site.

[QUOTE="TheEroica"][QUOTE="Desmonic"] Yup me too :P Also the cover itself looks nice and clean. However, it being a game about all the "great" and "famous" characters of the PS brand I wonder why they decided to make one single chracater stand out. If it were something like "Sonic All Star something something" it wouldn't be strange to see Sonic take the lead, but it's not so yeah..strange. Looks nice but strange.Desmonic

Not the first time sony has done a head scratching move in the advertising department... i agree, they copied ssb why not cut and paste the cover too? Show everybody fighting.

Indeed. At least it's not an eye sore to look at.

I mean this a fan made one I just found and I think it captures the overall idea of the game much better:

544679_363258410379711_100000866659453_1

Looks great. I look at that artwork and I'm like "This is something that I want to play". And the character actually look like they blend together somehow :P maybe it's the colors.

As much as Twisted Metal was a dissapointment, I reckon he would have suited the front cover much better. His sinister face would've suited a fighting game.

Most people will look at that game in the store and wonder who the hell is on the cover. Wouldn't it be more smart for Kratos or Jak to be on the cover?

That is just from one website and the fans actually voted for Cole to be on the cover.

Pretty sure the image on page 1 is either concept art or a placeholder, it's far too plain and cheap to be the actual cover.

Lol really average. And why Cole? He's one of the most boring characters this gen, at least make Drake the focus.RR360DD
Even Radec would be more interesting to have as the main focus.

Is this going to be the American box art too? If so, wow, if there is one part of SSB that they should have copied, its concept of their box art.

*edit* Okay I have seen the actual box art, but still it could have been better.

i think its pretty stupid to have 1 character focused on the cover... a not so popular character at that... but looking at the other entries..it does look the best.. maybe hiehachis is better Hopefully this is just US cover... seeing as they always get the sh!tty ones

No Focus.

Wide Variety of characters.

Look like they want to engage one another.

Vivid, not plain looking.

I don't want to nickpick but they could have attempted something much better.
