Bad Box Art Museum

[Yousef]

Oh, American box arts. Never fail to disappoint. Even in completely niche games, you still find a way to beautifully uglify a perfectly serviceable boxart. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, that art is an expression, and that it must emit emotion, well in this case this is certainly putting the “art” in boxart.

Hot, right?

I'll give you a moment to guess what the boxart is like.

by far one of the most iconic and infamous bad box arts in video game history. So iconic that even Capcom knows how ugly it is.

I should specify that this is bad because this is a fighting game, not a shooter.
I like this one, but I see the issues.


But I will stand by this being bad.

Complaining about HR is just very on-point, it’s like the game was created specifically to be mocked. I love the game, but I also love laughing at it.
