Yet more ugly box art (I hope that's the American version).
Boxart means nothing. Only the gameplay.
Right, I forgot, you can't criticise something unless you praise the rest of it.
Sarcasm....the sure sign of a weak mind.

All I am saying is that the boxart means nothing, squat, nadda. SO get over yourselves and stop bitching about the boxart when you do not even know what the gameplay is like.

You have a printer? MAKE YOUR OWN BOXART THEN and stop whining over trivial things.

It's an observation you idiot.

I said I was looking forward to the game, heaven forbid I should want it all to look nice too to round off the entire package.

Presentation is key, a man could be smarter than all of Mensa but if he carries himself like a slob, looks like a slob and makes no effort to clean up, then he will be treated like a slob.

It's the same principle, the game will undoubtably be good, but all the people who are seeing it on the shelf, judging it for the first time are only going to look at that cover, and that cover tells them what they need to know.

That is why box art exists, and it being good is the same as wanting the graphics to not look ass retarded. When it's presentable, people will buy it. If you don't understand THIS basic concept, a common factor of every day life, and if you choose not to believe it then I have an experiment for you.

I want you to go about your regular days work in a jock strap and nothing else, I want you to talk normally, do your job normally or go to school normally whichever. Now I want you to tell me how you were treated. Bet you already know the answer right? but why it's only how you look, it's whats INSIDE that counts right? wrong. While what's inside is important for something to be ROUNDED, people will never even look twice at something that is presented poorly unless it's to go "What is that ugly creature?"


TL;DR? Good boxart is important, don't be stupid. And no, your personal feelings on the matter mean NOTHING to what hundreds and thousands learn in marketing and buisness classes. This is not an opinion, this is a fact. Get it? Got it? Good.
