Haha. Yeah the American one is less cheesy even if it's generic. (Playing it safe I guess?)

Maybe it'd show off more if the cover had like... a person caught in the middle of rummaging through their bag, head turned behind them and looking at oncoming zombies.

With some obligatory landmark or such in the background to show the location. Or a torn flag somewhere.

Looks like a box art of an 80's game... The way the zombie is looking at you is not well done, but hey, I don't give a shi...lamdi about the cover as long as the game is good.

LOl that's hilarious.

I'm shocked they didn't go a better direction than this. Hopefully it's not final.

But the boxer temPlate for wii u games needs serious work. I've grown to tolerate it since its inevitable, but I can't stop thinking of best buy, Ikea, Valero gas stations, carmax etc when I see it. The colors just look like a cheep sales tactic since they are bright.

In color psychology, blue is supposed to imply trust and loyalty (the reason many businesses use it overwhelmingly) and yellow (it "ain't" no gold...) it supposed to stand out as an attention getter. At least they used it sparingly.

But in reality it just looks like a cheap sales tactic. Makes me no less fond of the wii u, but il keep the games in the enclosed portion of the entertainment center. Not the exposed part.

The hats are cool. They can stay.

Trophy Cards are classy too! LOLZIGZAGOON

I think the box, minus the actual Wii U border/case looks great.

What do you want?

This?

I'm still not touching this game with a ten foot pole.. but these covers look like those knock off games from those unknown third party publishers, the ones usually stacked next to Dora in the discount bin.

Thank goodness (for those who want to buy it) that the game itself looks like it's going to be a winner.

Out of curiosity, why do you not want to "touch this game?'

No, I'm not saying anything negative about your decision. I'm just curious.

It has nothing to do with the game itself but the genre. I really really cannot play graphically intense violent games where fear is involved. I'm a wuss ;~; It's intriguing, the idea of it, that much I will follow, but I will not be going near this game!!

Gotcha. I'm stoked for this game, but it better be better than Left 4 Dead.

You don't like L4D?

This statement is false. The previous statement is true.

RIP in peace Nintendo.

Euro version looks more pro, glossier, a bit scarier, the american one looks like it was designed by a competition winner from a silly pony games mag (no names given.... :)

You know... a damaged cardboard box with blood on it actually sounds like a badass cover for this game...
