The game is worse than the cover.

That's not saying much because the cover is the best ever.

Admittedly, that is a super classic video game, Exhuminator. And chickens.

I'll take that Bust-a-Move box art over this:

This one gives me nightmares.

And now you all will have them too.

A rather... minimalist approach?

I'm done picking on the Master System boxes after this, because Pro-Wrestling is still the all-time winner out of that category.

That Saturn bust a move art is terrible.

Agree on Foresaken. It's a pretty good Descent-like clone. You'd never know from that.

Not a bad RPG but I have a seething hatred for the box art:

The German version looks corny as hell but is about times 100 more awesome:

Kinda generic on the Saturn:

It is terrible. PS1 version has the same cover. That's actually one of the reasons why I didn't buy a CIB copy for the Saturn for 8 bucks because I knew I'd have to look at that creepy ass cover every single time (and I typically do not buy games on CD unless they're CIB). Thankfully the N64 version does NOT have this cover, mostly because it came out later than the other two.

I remember that Foresaken cover art and I always got confused by it, like what the hell was it supposed to be?
