I don't really see what's wrong with the Resistance 2 box art - I thought it was pretty damn awesome. The regular edition box art is god-awful, though. Really don't like it.

Boxart these days are so lame and uncreative. It's all basically the same thing, some guy standing around and then the title. Crysis, Halo 3, Gears, they're all guilty of that. The second Gears 2 boxart is at least kind of different.

how could it be possible that the regular edition of gears of war looks better than the limited Edition version?

all i say is they should have used the whole stance picture instead of just showing marcus

and the resistance 2 boxart is not half bad

Agreed. Sadly, my most anticipated game has really bad box art :(.

Poor Lara.

It's fail because the subject is so easy. But for some reason they decided to cut the head in half, cover the boobs with big letters and then throw some feces on her.

I have to concur with this man. For a game series which had some of the best stylized box-art, this is just horrendous and spits on the face of fans. The LE casing was cool, but then you pull out this monstrosity from the package and you feel almost jipped by the uglyness of this box art contained inside such a beautiful stylized LE edition package that would look like the normal art for any other MGS title.

Just because something tries to look intentionally bad doesn't make it less bad. If I covered myself in Rosie O'Donnell's poo and intentionally tried to look disgusting, would that make me look less disgusting?

I dont know why, but I absolutley hate this boxart:

Badness

However, I have to say the Touch Dic one is pretty bad. Not only is the boxart atrocious, but the name is absolutely terrible

Indeed. And the logo would also be orange, but a little bit darker (or lighter), so that you just suspect that there's a logo on it if you don't look carefully.

That would definitely be the best boxart of the year.

How about limiting it to worst box art of the year for quality titles? In this regard, I would have to go with Dead Space. One of my most anticipated titles to be sure, however, the bland, drab box art leaves a lot to be desired, I think. Good thing you do not play the box art though, aye?:P

wherever the mgs4 boxart is in this thread +1 for it, it was awfully ugly, it tried way to hard, the game was good, the art, not so much at all.

I don't think those are really that bad at all. :|

Now that's BAD.

pro-nathan-07

That's not bad in the slighest bit. It fits in really well with the Harvey Birdman s t y l e and it looks quite nice.
