Vanquish box art

This is the box art for Vanquish, according to Amazon. You can tell they have a heavy emphasis on bright colors. Not to mention, the  cover shows off that sense of danger and speed, also could be a mech robot game. That is, if I judged the game by the cover alone.

Thoughts?

    I think you would have to tell most people that he is sliding, not just laying back and shooting.

    I do not think it expresses much about the game at all. Not a very good boxart.

  4. Sharky says:

    Yeah because when you lay back and shoot sparks just come out of your feet.

  5. CosmicCastaway says:

    It's a lot better than most shooter box art which just have the main character standing in some position holding his/her gun.

    @Sharky

    Yeah, because when you slide sparks always come out of your feet.

  8. Thumbs up from me! Like the colors. 😀

    They do if you are wearing a suit of metal and sliding at extreme speeds.

    I have a suit of metal and I CAN CONFIRM sparks do not fly out, stars do.

    @George

    MY WHOLE POINT IS THAT MOST PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE GAME IS ABOUT WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE IT AS SLIDING!!

  12. George says:

    I'm not an expert in what other people think, but I would assume its fairly obvious that when the background is blurred and there are sparks coming from someone's metal feet, that they are obviously sliding.

  13. I see him as sliding.

    Slide Sam, slide!

    Do they have the 360 Box Art also?

  15. George says:

    Says they don't, only one you can see is the TINY thumbnail. Plus its the same, only instead of the black on top, its white and green.

  16. ^ One of the few times that the 360 package colors suits the cover art.
