The bad boxart gallery

[Sigourney Beaver]

I like the Mirror's Edge box apart from the big red slash obscuring the city. Having Faith up close and being able to see the vast city in the background would've made more sense.

And the giant logos take up too much space at the bottom, not leaving much room for the game logo considering the box design they went with.

What is going on down there eh? And what's the rainbow on the t-shirt representing....

He is the king of the ring ....

[Grapple Convoy]

Some terrible boxart from two decades ago...



I imagine having that plastered on the packaging that must have lost more than a few sales.

[Tig]

is that a chin or a weird crotch bulge?

[Lyris]

Although the above does have confusing mirrored writing.

That's a fan made cover. One of the much better examples of its breed...

I was just looking up to see what the English name was for my JPN Alex Kidd MD game and I came across this monstrosity.

Alex Kidd: A portly, big eared, pug nosed freak.

I can't work that woman out at all

As EvilBoris says so himself, and I whole heartedly agree too:



The box-art cover is woeful but the game is good fun though!

First of all she has six fingers, then you notice (what should be her) middle finger is much shorter than her other digits; a sure sign of a witch.

I would've loved that cover when I was 12!

It's not too bad; it's the ****ty graphics/writing at the top that kills it. It's not so much ugly as cheap.

I think Docomodake boxart is awesome, actually

[egparadigm]

Yeah, actually I got the wrong thread. Should be GOOD BOXART.

While we're on X-Blades, here's the Japanese box art. Never would've had Sony down as Prudish, especially in Japan...
