dartmonkey Posted December 20, 2014 I couldn't find a boxart thread and the Super Mario 3D World box makes me so damn happy I thought we needed one.Rules: Post a pic or two with the text (superlative) adjective + boxart. For example: Best boxart It needn't be best or worst, it could be anything. For example: Beefcake boxart It needn't alliterate either. Add some commentary if you like. For example, I miss the simplicity and synergy of the Master System and Mega Drive boxes, like old books that shared jacket designs and felt like part of a collection. Also, I'm not sure what's going on with the dwarf's right leg there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sno Posted December 21, 2014 You know, i see Phalanx's box art pop up pretty frequently whenever people decide to compile lists of the worst box art, but just now... I think i just realized...The ship, did they use an image of an X-wing? I swear, it looks like an X-wing, flying left to right, tilted towards the viewer. You can even see the astromech droid.It certainly doesn't look like the ship in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bjorn Posted December 21, 2014 When I was a teenager, I always kinda liked the Phalanx box, it was just weird looking sitting in the middle of the rest of the rentals at my local video store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, people give it a lot of shit, but it did at least get my attention enough to make me pick up the box and look at the back of it to see what the hell the game actually was, so I deem it a success.

N1njaSquirrel Posted December 21, 2014 Whenever I read the word superlatative, I can't help but do it in an Adam & Joe Bowie voice. (for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=tAScIck4QtM#t=417) The most infuriating box art Sorry that was lame. I'll think of a better one.
