What game looks worse by the cover?

1

2

3

4 - I just like the name of this

5

Makes me wonder what some of these guys were thinking. I think some of these rival some of the old NES boxes.

1 and 2 both look like they have potential t obe pretty awful, unless youre into that sort of thing.

1. ???
2. Great for pre-teen girls or 45 year old pedos
3. I've seen this game at work, I should check it out sometime for shits and giggles.
4. It promotes cigars. Also, they should have just went the distance and called it "Hardcore X-TREME Backflip Pool!"
5. Damn that's one fat mole.

Is that an actual game with Rain? WTF?

Karnaaj FTW

The first one's cover is about as descriptive as a picture of a ham sandwich would be.

3 Looks the worst. It looks ing ridiculous.

NCSX.com was perplexed as to why they couldn't successfully get any preorders for:

That Karnaaj game was in the Rest of the Crap section in EGM a while back. Seems that the game itself matches the box art.

LOL, I know, that's where I remembered it from. Seanbaby refused to review it based on the box art alone and got all kinds of shit from the developers.

I think it is actually a pretty good GBA racing game. It has an 81 on metacritic.

Yeah, Karnaaj Rally is pretty fun. If you liked Racing Gears Advance, don't let the box art scare you off.

Also, I see Buena Vista Games is well on their way to making most of Acclaim's shovelware look amazing...

 

[Graystone]

1 & 2 are the worst with number 2 winning by 1% for cheesiness.

 

[RegalSin2020]

1. Japanese MR. Rogers ????
2. KIddies are going to eat this up
3. KIddies are going to eat this up
4. False advertisment. KIddies are going to eat this up
5. Poor Waka Mole I miss you from the arcade days

1 and 5
