Here's a recent release spotted on GamersGate no less!

Aside from a VERY dodgy title, what the hell is Johnny Five from Short Circuit doing waving his arms in what can only be described as an "I'll get you yet you pesky kids" sort of way.

 

And the lead lady is called Scarlett. She's just asking for trouble.

Stupid stupid hair.

Bland.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/_-PGA-Golf-Intellivision-_.jpg

 

Awkward.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/_-Pro-Evolution-Soccer-2009-Wii-_.jpg

 

Just cheap.

How did this ever get past the ideas stage.

You can't actually farm kangaroos.

Aaargh.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/51J-W-TR0lL.jpg

 

Not playing this shit they don't.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/51pnsLjwTjL.jpg

 

This trend will continue. A grid. Lord above.

Someone start a 'Terrifying Cover Art' thread.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/201209b.jpg

 

LOL!

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/577458_673_front-1.jpg

 

No.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/587089_49860_front.jpg

 

A good game brought low.

Weep.

Yes indeed.

Homoeroticism, thy name is cover art.

Trimming a dragon's claws while a woman in a bubble suffocates.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/b0c72a45.jpg

 

Two titles for the price of one.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/b4409ab5.jpg

 

Nothing to see here, move along, quickly now.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/bad-box-art.jpg

 

It's the title that really sinks it. How could you have good cover art for that title.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/BadDudesvsDragonNinja.jpg

 

Definite contender.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/blood-and-guts.jpg

 

Honest, at least.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/Carmaboxus.jpg

 

Gone badly wrong.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/ccc.jpg

 

One of the laziest, certainly.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/Chris-kamaras-street-soccer-PSX.jpg

 

Budget included a cup of tea halfway through making this bad boy.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/crushed3d.png

 

Refreshingly honest.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/dontbuythis.jpg

 

Horrific.

Felix Spills Oil Everywhere, Jesus Christ Felix, WTF.

No, that's a new one. Christ.

Childhood memories now smeared with faeces.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/gvgooniesii.jpg

 

A double crime here, given the excellence of the game and the wonderful European box art, the North American cover is nothing less than a tragedy.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/ico-north-american-cover.jpg

 

To poledance?

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/jfaw.jpg

 

Nintendo try to emulate Sega's gridded cover art skillz and get it wrong.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/MegaMan1.jpg

 

Looks like there's a tidal wave of orange juice approaching...

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/power-instinct.jpg

 

Another grid job.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/ProWrestling.jpg

 

Ban this sick filth.

A certain portion of the internet is a-quiver.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/trevmof.jpg

 

So dangerous, in fact, that her clothes have been stolen.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgdangerousstreets.jpg

 

She's an eclectic mix of warrior woman and 80s aerobics instructor.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgghostlion.jpg

 

Essentially three or four pictures just jumbled together.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgladybug.jpg

 

Games of the century indeed

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgmegaforce.jpg

 

Well.

That's a pretty good job. Surely there's money to be made doing faux-retro posters for modern games? :clapping:

 

The hair, the shades, the enormously fat forearm.

That is how you ride a skateboard.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgskateboardjoust.jpg

 

Not just lazy but shit by association.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgstreetfighter.jpg

 

Not just one, but two.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgtwocrudedudes.jpg

 

An extremely carp-faced Willow.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgwillow.jpg

 

The scissors represent castration anxiety. The rest of the cover represents a supreme lack of time, effort, and money.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/vgxman.jpg

 

Swords growing out of your shoulders, shooting a robot in the face, while doing a jig. Now that's a real hero.

Unspeakable.

https://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h109/FullAuto_2006/942079_93180_front.jpg

 

Another good game betrayed.
