I hope that's fake because that looks horrible. It looks like a generic sci-fi movie poster with the usual ***** in it.

That's pretty dumb. The first box art had a more epic feel to it, this one is cheesy.

LOl. I think it's fake. They might change it later. At the end I won't let the box art get in the way of buying the game.

The official box art to my knowledge was the wallpaper on the Mass Effect website. It had Shepard running on the left part of the box with a planet in the backround.

Really. It's just nice to have great box art. Like Assassin's Creed II, which looks even better in person.

That does look horrible. That woman in the back looks out of proportion...meaning, the head looks to big...maybe it's her hair, but still looks weird. Also, the foreshortening on the arm with the gun looks odd. It looks bad. The characters look stiff and robotic. Not good at all.

Exactly I love looking at great box arts but they would never stop me or make me want to buy a game.

Sorry man. It appears to be official. At least according to Bioware. http://masseffect.bioware.com/media/screenshots

The collector's edition case looks pretty awesome still, which I'm getting so I don't care if they screw up the box art on the regular version.

Also does anyone else think that the default male Shepard looks stupid? He doesn't look like a badass (as he should)... more like a douche.

Don't you mean"SyFy"? Aww who cares the name change was stupid and their movies are terrible. At least their series are good. And on topic, I preferred the old box art. Actually why can't they do something similar to the first Mass Effect's?

I know they changed their name, I just refuse to acknowledge the new logo; it's awful.

I like:

The background

The weapon that Shepard is holding

Some parts of Shepard's armor

-------------------

The rest is not good.

So..apparently that cover is real...damn it. In the end, i just want the game but why cant they at least make something like the ME1 cover? It looked awesome, and the previous one(ME2) was also cool.

The Collector's Edition looks incredible; especially when compared to the base game. And it comes with some awesome stuff(just not as awesome of stuff as in Assassin's Creed II's special editions)

To clear up speculation, turns out the cover I was talking about earlier is the North American cover of the game, so the cover listed in this thread may be used in other countries.

Yeah, the older box art looked way better. Hopefully theres time for Bioware to hear some criticism and change it. It's no big deal I guess but still we know they can do better.

It looks like the pic in the topic creator's post has actually turned out to be the european box art. What's sad is that they considered that box art an IMPROVEMENT lol. Neither one is all that great.

[QUOTE="ASK_Story"]That does look horrible. That woman in the back looks out of proportion...meaning, the head looks to big...maybe it's her hair, but still looks weird. Also, the foreshortening on the arm with the gun looks odd. It looks bad. The characters look stiff and robotic. Not good at all.

I think she just has a very tall neck. As for the box art itself, I still vastly prefer the Collector's Edition work (that's just beautiful!), but I ... think I prefer this to the original ME2 box art.

Well the original game's box art had at least some level of originality to it. The north american box art looks like a generic 70s sci-fi novel and the european box art looks like looks like a low-budget generic action game.

Even the 1st game had a better box art than that. Shepard should be in the middle with 2 other characters on each side with a planet in the background maybe.

I perferred the first art than this new one, but I think the sexiest is the box art for the version I pre-ordered:

Collector's Edition

People have done that for years.:|

And the 1st game still had a better box art IMO.
