Most awesome bad cover art?

Post by Replica »

I bought this game just because of the SWEET cover art. What's the best "worst" cover art you can find?

I love that game. When you kick people, they just fly away diagonally in a straight line

that's usually what happens when I kick people. Why? What happens when you kick people?

Funny you should mention that; I kicked a spaceship yesterday [it took a couple kicks for it to explode], and everything around me started violently flashing and shaking horizontally. Is that normal?

Not to get off topic or anything, but I've noticed that for a lot of people bad cover art just means, "I prefer Japanese manga art over American art". Seriously, there's a lot of US releases with decent cover art that still get bashed for really no other reason that I can see other than that some people want all their cover art to look like anime

a spaceship? Oh yeah, that's totally normal. It took like 2 -- maybe 3 kicks, right?
