- njiska, on 03/12/2009, -3/+176That is a horrible list. Orange Box is a fine example of BAD box art, not the second greatest of all time.
- IvenomI, on 03/12/2009, -3/+90Dugg for the fact that a 40 item list managed to stay on one page.
- roessnakhan, on 03/12/2009, -2/+67Glad to see Deus Ex on there, but the list seems more based off popularity than actual GOOD covers.
- Mystlyfe, on 03/12/2009, -1/+54A more accurate title would have been, "40 games we liked that happened to have box art"
- LemonChicken, on 03/12/2009, -1/+39More like "In No Particular Order, 40 Videogames"
- edcrosay, on 03/12/2009, -1/+30This was the only redeeming quality of the article.
- DrinkCoke07, on 03/12/2009, -1/+28This list is more of a "games that I have played in the past, or recently that were fun".
- Edge00, on 03/12/2009, -2/+28This list is pretty much awful, I like how they put 3 games in a series in a row. Besides, most of those boxes suck.
- brandita, on 03/12/2009, -3/+29Okay, 90% of these are either guy or creature holding some type of gun-like weapon. Creative much?
- Canadianinjapan, on 03/12/2009, -0/+26Wow that sucked. The title of the article should have been "40 game covers I found in my closet"
- edcrosay, on 03/12/2009, -0/+23How could they leave of the PAL version of RE4-Wii Edition. One of the best game covers ever.
This list was complete crap. Orange Box? Number 2????
This seemed like a list of 40 popular games that the author could remember the name of. - andrewglover87, on 03/12/2009, -1/+20http://www.gamesradar.com/f/the-worst-box-art-of-2 ...
- tidu, on 03/12/2009, -1/+16Lego Batman? Are they serious?
- Zedian, on 03/12/2009, -1/+16Lame. The minute I saw all those games being mainly more recent popular games and with GTA IV, perhaps the most overrated game in history sitting pretty at number, I shunned the doors and left without a slight bit of confidence this is a credible list.
Where's Final Fantasy VII? Super Mario 3? Battletoads? Resident Evil 1? Megaman (I know it was cheesy but legendary) and a whole slew of other games. - rjinso, on 03/12/2009, -1/+16Gee, I came here to make a disparaging comment on how uninspired this list is, but most of what I wanted to say has been said, so never mind.
- ryansimbalist, on 03/12/2009, -1/+14The list is bad, and the writing isn't any better.
The Halo cover stands out from other first-person shooters with a lush green color scheme. This ties in perfectly with the lush green of Master Chief's combat suit. The Master Chief character has since become a gaming icon and is the center-piece of the covers for the three FPS games in the Halo franchise: - redrabbit, on 03/12/2009, -0/+13what is Mortal Combat?
- roxbot, on 03/12/2009, -0/+12Garbage list.
- inactive, on 03/12/2009, -1/+12worst list ever
- FtheTM, on 03/12/2009, -0/+10This is a list of a few very popular games and covers with space marines. Apparently whoever authored this list has quite a thing for space marines, or just logos and no other imagery of the game. LAME
- marshalkowski, on 03/12/2009, -0/+9"Notice how this particular cover has the game's name, and is rectangular in shape? Now this is a mighty fine video game cover."
- Kenelm, on 03/12/2009, -0/+8That's Diablo on the box of Diablo II, not Mephisto. Looks like they spent more time looking at the box than playing the game.
- raublekick, on 03/12/2009, -1/+8"Contra is renowned for being one of the most difficult games in history"
head-in-hands - Natetendo83, on 03/12/2009, -1/+8where is Left 4 Dead?
- InfinitySnatch, on 03/12/2009, -9/+16Crysis? Nah brah, nah.
Also buried for ignoring the PAL/JP version ICO cover. - ebolaworld, on 03/12/2009, -0/+7This seemed more like games the author likes.
- inactive, on 03/12/2009, -0/+6The technology required to make those 40 pages interactive would be worthy of the most diggs ever.
- redrabbit, on 03/12/2009, -0/+6I'll save you some time in reading this article:
[insert game title here]'s cover matches the spirit of the game.
We get it. - marshalkowski, on 03/12/2009, -0/+6Dugg for being exactly right.
- xerograde, on 03/12/2009, -0/+6One of the best video game covers:

And for a good laugh:
http://www.411mania.com/game_article_pictures/6801 ... - landosystem, on 03/12/2009, -2/+8I immediately realized it was a crap list when I saw Baldurs Gate II Shadows of Amn as thier pick, seriously, not the original, which looked nearly identical, with the exception of having a skull with flaming eyes as opposed to that stupid elf head?
- prcpaul, on 03/12/2009, -0/+5Orange Box as number 2? Buried for being a ***** list.
- inactive, on 03/12/2009, -1/+6Needs more http://thegreatgeekmanual.com/images/geekhistory/s ... Overrated or not the cover is amazing.
A lot of those were good, but Resistance and Diablo 2 should definitely be higher on the list. Too many to list were left out like Okami, Red Alert 3, Shadow of the Colossus... - FullMetalNIN, on 03/12/2009, -0/+5Wauw - even poop is making the front page
- GalacticRerun, on 03/12/2009, -0/+5Oh jeez I completely forgot about that. Ico should be in there for sure. This list is poor.
- jgtg32a, on 03/12/2009, -0/+5No facepalm is only one hand.
head-in-hands is a double facepalm, but double facepalm just sounds silly - MonkeyNews, on 03/12/2009, -1/+6Very bad list. No Shadow of the Colossus either.
- inactive, on 03/12/2009, -1/+5Mortal Kombat was a great box... but GTA IV's box? Really? It wasn't that great.. Still I like they showed the Doom as the avatar for this article, that box is classic
- CalebBlusummers, on 03/12/2009, -0/+4I think you forgot to put a "/s" at the end of you comment...
- battleroyalex, on 03/12/2009, -0/+4More like "40 games I like, and make up a reason why their box art is good even though its crap"
- dizzylalapo11, on 03/12/2009, -1/+5Sometimes I walk to the bow of a ship and hope for a girl to be there, if there is someone there than i grab her by the waist and lift her up, then we go back to my ship apartment and I draw her naked.
- hammerpants, on 03/12/2009, -0/+4/facepalm?
- bmdubya, on 03/12/2009, -0/+3As much as I love GTA IV, I don't think it has the best cover art of all time. I don't know what really does. One cover that stood out to me was Freedom Fighters. I also thought the Halo 3 cover was pretty nice. But everyone will have different lists.
- zaferk, on 03/12/2009, -0/+3rot in hell bastard. baldurs gate 2 and the box itself is something holy.
- ZManNate, on 03/12/2009, -1/+4Mega Man? http://supernintendoman.files.wordpress.com/2008/0 ...
- Cuchanu, on 03/12/2009, -0/+3Yeah I thought it was a prank or something. Some of those titles deserve to be there, of course, but more often than not I was left wondering what in the hell they are talking about.
- onClipEvent, on 03/12/2009, -0/+3these type of lists are so dumb...must be a slow day at the office...
i feel bad for the poor guy that had to write a obligatory blurb for every box art. - Elranzer, on 03/12/2009, -0/+3How they left off Mega Man 1's NES art is beyond me...
http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/bigboxshots/1 ... - digidevil, on 03/12/2009, -1/+4Stupidest ***** thing I've seen so far today. Cynical promotional tool. ***** them.
- malignatius, on 03/12/2009, -0/+2I prefer the San Andreas and Vice City boxes over GTA IV.
Also, I love Grim Fandango, but the boxes for Monkey Island 3, Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle are far better. -
