Bad Video Game Box Art

#18: Viz (Amiga)
So...a Dennis the Menace knockoff who smells real bad is next to a guy with giant testicles who is having his testicles smashed by a crazy Scotsman. All while two fat women laugh at the entire thing. You see Lord Kitchener in the corner, saying "You'll never play a bigger load of crap"? Replace play with see and it makes sense. See? Lord Kitchener knows what's happening.
#17: Mystery of the Druids (PC)
This game was from Germany. Because all video games from Germany have scary Druid men who look constipated and cry powder, right? That's how it got its M rating.
#16: Pac-Man (Atari 400/800)
So, what's wrong with this? First, he's not eating (raw) burger patties, but random orbs. Second, Pac-Man does have a body, but he doesn't look like a anorexic jogger with a Deadmau5 ripoff helmet here? Finally, the ghosts have legs.
#15: Super Duper Sumos (GBA)
Three fat sumos with huge asses slamming their asses together in a city. Perfect. It doesn't help that the splash effect is fart green. I can't say anything about this cover.
#14: First 4 Megaman Games Box Art Retrospective
In this post, we'll be doing the first four Megaman games. Of course, you already know about mid-life crisis Megaman.
However, the next three couldn't get it just right. It finally took Megaman 5 to get it right. Let's go see Megaman 2.
Okay, this is more like it. Megaman is colored correctly, and he doesn't look like he needs Viagra. But he still has a handgun!
This is Megaman 3. They finally got Megaman's looks right. But, his stature and face makes him look like more like a cosplaying midget (although that'd be a good cosplay to be honest). Also, he's shooting that robot somewhere in the crotch, so this cover makes Megaman a crotch-shooting blue midget.
Okay, there seems nothing wrong with this cover at first. But compare it to Megaman 3. Megaman has less hues of blue than he did! Oh, whatever. At least Jaleco didn't make the games. If they did, the Jaleco cover would probably cover the crotch of the robot.

#13: Xenon 2: Megablast (Amiga/Atari ST)
Hey! You thought Mr. Blobby's eye-straining title colors were bad? Wait until you see Xenon 2: Megablast!
WHAT THE FUCK? That's all I can say.
WHAT THE FUCK? That's all I can say.
#12: Bust a Move 2 (PS1)
DEAR GOD.
First off, the only thing that should be illegal is the cover. It looks like a cut scene from A Clockwork Orange, which it probably is. Why is the rating even Kids to Adults? It should be more like Adults Only. If you only saw the picture for this, and not the rest, and you were not told anything, you'd think it was a sick snuff film. I can't go on anymore. At least Jaleco had no involvement with this game. But still!
