Will still look nothing like what has been demoed.

But isn't close enough good enough in the case of the Wii U? Perhaps we should wait for actually screens and gameplay before drawing conclusions?

 

[PapaJustify]

Just make sure everyone can see the gun on the cover. The guy hacking stuff with his handheld is just secondary.

Horrible.

 

[AranhaHunter]

Fair enough. I still think it will look like crap compared to what we have seen, but I'll hold judgement until then.

 

[Magnus]

Anyone else just plain hate the main character's design? The baseball cap, the face covered up, I dunno. Looks terrible to me. Putting it front and centre for the box art is even worse.

 

[SJRB]

Surprisingly generic for such a unique game.

But I wouldn't know what else to put on the cover to attract the impulse buyer.

Here's to hoping there's going to be a collector's edition or something with a better cover.

 

[Mogwai]

All I'm thinking is: Where do I get that phone?

 

[Like the hat?]

So is the main focus of the game shooting people? That's the vibe I get from the box art.

 

[faridmon]

I don't like it at all.

 

[VE3TRO]

Looks naff. I'd have this black and white version any day.

Just made this with the wallpaper shot.

 

[Whompa]

GUN in foreground for the idiot uninformed buyer.

What makes this game interesting in the background for the people who want to hack stuff and not shoot everything.

 

[Franchuzas87]

Yep, definitely I like more this one.

Still I will buy if the game is any good (obviously).

 

[Stark]

As I said in the WD Demo thread:

I like it. Fits the tone of the game.

 

[Blueblur1]

Looks like a random shovelware game. Awful cover.

I like it but you're kind of right. :/

 

[Acquiescence]

It's not inherently bad, but it does play it too safe for a game so ambitious in nature. It needed something more iconic than having a gun shoved in your face.

 

[Cycloid]

So...generic.

 

[gutter_trash]

am I the only one who thinks that this games is just Assassin's Creed with Hacking with chase path sequences?

 

[Roo]

Ok, time for some fan art covers!!

 

[Ragus]

DISAPPOINTED

 

[Boerseun]

Wii U version for the win. Gamepad usage could be killer.

White Man With Gun: The Game.

Seriously? He looks Asian to me.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

why didn't they just use that digital skull logo the lead dev had on his tshirt at the ps4 reveal?

that's what I would do.

 

[SnakeswithLasers]

Turquoise and orange? You don't say...

 

[Dysun]

Cover looks like shit shovel-ware game you wouldnt look at twice
Not the impression the game gives you

 

[eternaLightness]

Looks like bad cgi kinda.

 

[mxgt]

MAN WITH GUN

Terrible.

 

[Phonomezer]

Crap and it actually just comes across as product placement.

 

[GAMERG0D]

Not a fan of the boxart, still will buy on PC.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I like it. Interested in seeing how the PS4 and the Durango boxes will look now.

 

[majik13]

ew, just the close up of his head in the other promo material would have even been better.

 

[ironcreed]

Good enough. I just want to play it.

 

[Piers]

generic cover but it sells. Dude staring at you with a gun in his hand...but this time he has an smart phone in his hand.

Sad truth.

 

[Dany]

So shitty... do they deliberately want this game to fail?

Are you seriously this hyperbolic on the boxart?

 

[Hi i'm Caleb]

Guys! Guys! Our game has guns. Look.

 

[Pavaloo]

Meh, I'm fine with it. At least his back isn't to the camera. Still got blue n' orange themes going on, bleh, when will we use other complementary colours.

edit: Shooting appears to be a main mechanic guys, as does using your cellphone. C'mon gaf.

 

[boiled goose]

orange and blue
guy with a gun
sparks

big MEH. Generic.

 

[drspeedy]

Ok, time for some fan art covers!!

Anagram time?

 

[robovanburen]

Just make sure everyone can see the gun on the cover. The guy hacking stuff with his handheld is just secondary.

Horrible.

Hacking seems like a tough action to convey in box art, especially if it's done via phone.

 

[Cake Boss]

Made something quick in photoshop.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Guy looks like a completely unremarkable, forgettable mallgoth douche. What an embarrassing cover.

 

[Baconsammy]

Will buy it digitally on PS4 or Xbox. I'll never experience the negative effects of owning a game with bad boxart. Tear.

Kinda the point, isn't it?

 

[disappeared]

A game about telecommunications and computer hacking features a giant fucking pistol on the cover.

This industry sometimes..

 

[Alfredo]

lol at the minimized used of blue and orange, but it still stands out

 

[Hoo-doo]

Kinda the point, isn't it?

Yes, because in the future, everyone wears leather trenchcoats like in the matrix.

 

[rosaceadude2112]

It's also about shooting people and beating them with sticks.

 

[Baconsammy]

If you want to ignore the premise of the game, go for it.

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

If the game lives up to its potential, it could be a plain cardboard box for all I care.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

wow that is bad!

first thing your eyes wander to is the GUN!!!

ugh

 

[The Boat]

Anagram time?

I'd buy it.

 

[panty]

So damn generic, lame.

 

[Discotheque]

am I the only one who thinks that this games is just Assassin's Creed with Hacking with chase path sequences?

Yeah it's probably gonna be a shitty game, people are just blinded by the premise and the visuals but never again after AC IMO

 

[grosvenor_92]

Much better.

I agree
