    GOW Collection should be exempt from the list considering how awesome the games are.

      I don't really see how anyone could complain about it..
      Although some new artwork depicting both games in one image would've been really cool.

    I was a little disappointed by the Collection boxart, but hey, I can't complain. Its all whats on the inside that counts.

    Yeah, The Grudge boxart was terrible. Of all the scary/disturbing/creepy/etc imagery in the series, they picked that for the game's cover.

    WTF

    I was kinda expecting some actual descriptions where the author comments on each box, possibly with a little humour mixed in. I guess slideshows pass for articles as well.

    Some of the choices were outright weird. I mean, GoW Collection? Possibly a bit lazy but it still looked fine. Others like Conduit and Star Ocean don't actually look bad and I'm sure there were many more worse contenders than them. Kinda looks like they started building the list and then just threw random other boxarts in to take it up to 20. =\

    Am I the only person who thinks The Conduit box art is pretty cool actually? What's with that hate?

    This guys and idiot. the GOW didn't have a bad case, I think it put them together rather nicely. And the Star Ocean One wasn't bad even slightly. I totally LOL'd when I saw the astrology one. What were they thinking? lol.
