There are alot of games out there, which means ALOT of boxart, some of them are just so bad its almost impossible to stop laughing when you see them. Here are a few of my faves:


Nothing portrays space action like a hobo playing a banjo.

Yes! Thanks for sharing I haven't seen those in a while. Those are horrible and FAN-Tastic! Don't know which is worse: phalanx or Mega Man... black belt is bad, but not in the same league as the other two.

I'm gonna go with mega man since the box art for Phalanx is a brilliant marketing ploy.  Come on, what better way to get someone to pick up your game than to put a banjo playing hobo on the cover...for a SPACE SHOOTER!

edited to add:  I remember reading something a while ago saying the designers (if you wanna call em that) decided to do that exact thing just to get people to pick up the game.
