It could be wonderful, horrid, really horrid or anything in between. To start this off, I will set two examples. I'm pretty sure you can tell the two apart. & You may post cover art and discuss how great (or awful) it might be! -------------------- Zirconium pants.

Death once came for Fran Drescher. She'd had better Group: Elder Things Posts: 7,578 Member No.: 19 Joined: 7-April 09	That's why old-school box art is always either awesome in its creativity or unintentionally hilarious: More primitive graphics meant that box artists needed to use their imaginations. And someone apparently imagined Pac-Man as a basketball player who runs around a castle eating floating cookies. -------------------- You can't kick me because your brain is stupid.

The cover makes it look like a bad super hero movie form some far off land and thats why i like it. Now up next are some of the older castlevina box art wich alway were super cool. The made the cover look like poseter for awesomely bad pulp horror movies. Castlevina is one of my favorite game series. -------------------- Curently banned for life for blockbuster and hollywood video

I had to look this up.
It's real.
I have never felt more confused in my entire life. I am still reeling from the fact that this is actually a thing that is happening in reality.
