love the game, hate the box art.

 

 

This isn't even box art imo, but I hated it then and still hate it now. It's like saying: We're so conceited about our shitty, contrived game that we're not going to make the cover even the slightest bit interesting. We will also make you play most of the game in a zoomed out Pac Man view just to spite you.

 

Don't ask me how I got that second part out of the cover. ;)

 

keep on hating, kid. MGS1 is a revered classic and has stood the test of time. every stealth game takes a page out of MGS1's book.

Some of these are absolutely horrendous. Really makes you wonder if any thought went into them at all, or the marketing department was so sure they game will sell they told the janitor to make the box art. I was about to post Anticipation for the NES, but saw someone else had it. I was sure for the longest time I had the only cartridge in existence. The cover has no connection to the 'game', which is more of a widespread problem than I could have ever imagined.
