ZackNovak Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Throughout your years of gaming, which games had the worst box art you've ever seen? I searched in the forum and didn't find this topic. (but there may be one and I apologize if there is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst cover ever. Looks like a student's project in a 3D art class, using a default pose. Edited February 24, 2011 by Auburok Different image of Armored Core.

EliteShadowMan Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) http://img602.imageshack.us/img602/7767/themysteryofthedruidsco.jpg lmao! made my day as soon as i read the title and looked at the cover. Nice one. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cvZL8gXNKb4/TFdYk9AXiZI/AAAAAAAABII/l_yRTYlqO4w/s1600/metro+cross.jpg kind of makes me sad that i'm seeing Fatal Frame, Resident Evil, and Turok 2 on here but i realize it's just the box art, and not the gameplay so maybe you guys really like the games for all i know.

Oh, I like the games. But the art. Ugh. How would you even be able to guess a camera is integral to Fatal Frame? What if you were framing pictures? Or framing ghosts for crimes?

What if you were framing pictures? Or framing ghosts for crimes? haha, back when fatal frame first came out i went and rented it, and didn't even know it was about ghosts considering how bad the cover was. I will agree with you on that and Resident Evil, but i don't see the problem with Turok 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburok Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 This is why: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/86/Turok-dinosaur_hunter_n64_cover.png Dude's murdering a raptor with a KNIFE. A KNIFE. When that's on the cover, you know the game's going to be badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second one, just plain text. Wasted opportunity. This should have been the cover of Turok 2: http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/6624/155939-122632-turok_large.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, to this day, think that someone mixed up the box art for another game and threw the space ship on it at the last minute. I mean, seriously. It's a plane shooty game. Don't believe me?
