It's very typical and boring, but I guess it is really the game inside that counts.

Though I would like to see the European boxart: it seems to be becoming a trend of publishers to believe that we Americans can't comprehend or appreciate anything more than the most cliche and basic boxart while they give Europeans the more inspired and creative versions of boxart. >.<

k jules5909d ago

I remember the boxarts for ICO, the EU-version looked awesome, like some piece of art, US-version looked like a piece of sh.t :P

zack615909d ago

It looks good in my opinion.

Crazyglues5909d ago (Edited 5909d ago )

I can't wait for this game, already have it pre-ordered from Amazon.com so I can't wait..

If you were a fan of Mafia one back in the day then this should be a no brainier, as it looks like they really stepped up ever aspect of the game...

I hated that it got delayed, but looks like Aug. 27th is the touch down date... seems like a long time to wait.. would have just been so cool if they could have made the May Date they had before...

The game is just looking Amazing... Can't wait

I think it's awesome. love the style...

lh_swe5909d ago

But as has been said it's the game on the inside that counts, shame a big fraction of consumers buy games based off the box-art (seen it happen MAMY times), so it's a shame the box art might not live up to the content.

I want this game sooo bad, I hope I atleast see it this year, no more delays :(

Should have done something similar to the Godfather 2 movie promos.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya1219d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled1219d ago (Edited 1219d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney1219d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled1219d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist1218d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin1219d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled1219d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE1219d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi1219d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE1219d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.
