It's a safe position to assume the game will suck. If by some miracle it is awesome (and it will indeed be a miracle) then that is a pleasant surprise.sphinx said:to all people with negative comments: how can we be so sure this game is going to suck or look badly??
When it comes to games, pessimism avoids disappointment.
The first and last time I bought a game based on boxart was when I bought Airwolf with my NES. I learnt my lesson within the first five minutes of turning on my first ever console.sphinx said:you know, I miss the days when I was an uninformed gamer, I'd go to the video game store and buy a game on impulse based on genre and box art alone. I'd go home, play it, get an "o.k" experience and be satisifed.
I cannot see how buying based on boxart could possibly yield an "OK" experience on average.
