Who the hell makes those Tom Clancy box arts...they're so terrible

Looks like they're using the same pic from the magazine ad

explodet · Oct 11, 2004

What is happening there with that Ghost Recon 2 boxart? :lol

He's yawning because it's past his naptime, and soldiering is tiring.

Looks like a cross license with x-men or something.

Soul4ger · Oct 11, 2004

Like six of those aren't working for me. Anyone else having that problem? Even when I check the properties, and copy and paste the link.

Bog · Oct 11, 2004

Mech Assault 2's boxart is brutal. And that's not a good thing.

Hero · Oct 12, 2004

Nice DS boxes. Particularly Drill Spirits and Feel the Magic. (Though I wished they had just named it 'I'd Die For You'.)

Kiriku · Oct 12, 2004

Shit, so that Super Mario 64 DS boxart is for REAL!?!? The horror.

Eh, it's not that bad. Though it's kinda... boring.

It is bad for such a high-profile game, I was expecting more than just a lazy Photoshop slap-together logo. But, at least it's apparent what they're aiming for, and with that in mind they have succeeded methinks.

aku:jiki · Oct 12, 2004

So very fucking sold. I'm still in doubt of them keeping the box art, though. I just can't believe its not a cheesy CG of some buff guy with a big gun!

DMczaf · Oct 12, 2004

everytime I see those DS boxes I think of Dreamcast

I hear ya.

This could totally be a Dreamcast game.

But then there's this:

Heh.

That last strictly paintball game I remember was Gotcha! on the NES. I'm still trying to forget it.

Grizzlyjin · Oct 12, 2004

I love how Namco brings over these niche games and even keeps the box art the same. Awesome. Nightmare of Druaga will be mine. I need some old school dungeon action!

You really don't wanna know! This is the most disapointing thing I've seen from Sega in quite a while. (Am big Sega fanboy - also - realist)

I was thinking that it was going to be some kind of UGA-inspired Sonic Team music/colour manipulation type deal from all the wonderful swirly art that was released.

Imagine WarioWare, just slower, less funny, less fun and with a tenuous love story. I know some people like it, but for me it was, well, I didn't understand the point of it. And in Seattle, it was on a table with WarioWare, which outshone it with ease.

There was a cool game involving blowing out candles that required you to blow on the mic. But that's about it.

I can't believe they kept the Fushigino Dungeon subtitle! Even Enix of America and Square USA dropped it, who'd have thought in a million years that Namco Hometek would be more faithful to JP titles than them?

Y'know, I was getting a similar vibe after watching the videos (and realizing it wasn't a rhythm game but just touch minigames). I think I'll be skipping it now and sticking with Mario & Driller for launch.

I reckon the mario 64 boxart is good. I challenge someone to make a better one.

I think it's a contest to see who can come up with ugliest, most repulsive shit plastered on the box and still not have it minutely affect sales.

john tv · Oct 19, 2004

Um, they're not REALLY leaving the "fushigi no dungeon" name on Tower of Druaga, are they? That looks retarded

Flynn · Oct 20, 2004

Is Ping Pals a multiplayer network diagnostics game?

Wario64 · Oct 20, 2004

The new VJ2 box seems better, but still feels a bit empty compared to the firs box art

Littleberu · Oct 20, 2004

This one rocks IMO.

That Capcom FE cover is nice. Anyone know a release date on ChoroQ? It's not even in the Gamestop computer last time I looked.

The Bookerman · Oct 21, 2004

Hmmm. I hope it's better than Paintbrawl... **shrugs**

jetjevons · Oct 21, 2004

The Paintball game is from WXP, the tech wiz kids behind those great NVidia demos like Dagoth Moor Zooligcal Gardens and Isle of Mog or whatever it was called. They also worked on the Xbox version of Lord of The Rings though I don't think that was a very pleasant experience for them. They are really good guys who work in Seattle. I seem to recall they made this game on their own dime and just kept going till they were happy with it. I'm really interested to see how this game turns out. Is there any buzz on it?

EBGames.com has a date of 11/2

Sho Nuff · Oct 21, 2004

Worst title ever. That and the cover is suicide.

(BTW I'm not ragging on the game itself, which is fly)

Sales: -47
