Reminds me of the terrible Arkham City box art. At least it isn't covered in fucking review scores.

Yeah I don't know why they thought that was a good cover. I'm glad I got the Steelbook so I don't have to look at that shit.

I actually really like the first game's box art for the PS3 version. It looks really pretty, in a desolate kinda way. If I got any enjoyment out of zombie apocalypse scenarios then I'd almost want to give it a proper try just because the box art looks that good. Part 2's box art though? Blech. If it wasn't attached to a popular IP I'd never give a game with that box art the time of day.

I really hate it. The first game's art was pretty nice. A bit generic, but good, especially by today's standards.

This one's is just awful. I don't know who figured this close up on main character's face thing will sell, but I hate modern box art.

IMO, it should have been one of the official wallpapers (or both with a reversible cover):

Yeah those are a lot better. The face closeup is really lame.

Game box art has been that way for a while. There's a vid about it on yt. General idea is that older games lacked the visuals to attract people so fancy painted box art represented the ideal the game was portraying which isn't as important now, especially with digital.

Thing that really bugs me is that Naughty Dog actually FOUGHT for the first game's boxart. Marketing was against it, especially because it had Ellie in the forefront and having girls on the cover is a huge no no according to marketing. Just look at BioShock Infinite, who also had to fight for their right to boxart, but ended up losing.

So they did care about that first game's art enough to make a stand and get their way. That game sold fucking gangbusters too, so it proves that like a lot of bullshit, marketing has no actual clue what they are talking about.
