i also saw this the other day, and its a good possibility that this could be the box art and i'd like it but if they are just using this image as a fill-in until they get the real box art worked, that would be cool with me too. off topic: you said you were downloading the extended trailer correct?
It could just be a fill in. I think it's ok if a little premature as it's based of some released art from the tgs release.
Hmm... a guess on my part, but this art has been available online for a while now, and everyone's seen it. Wouldn't the box art be something new...?
Woot! My discovery made the front page! I'm famous! Haha, thanks for the credit, I really just happened to stumble over it. I wonder how long its been right under our noses?
Nice find Edsabre . But it doesn't say Ninja Theory anywhere on the box, on the Heavenly Sword and Enslaved boxes its usually in the middle at the bottom. So i'm waiting until NT reveal it themselves, pretty cool box art if it is it though
okay so i found out this is not the official box art for DmC. a moderator on the ninja theory forums had this to say about the box art: "The official box art has not been revealed yet, so the art on the Xbox site is just a placeholder that they are using for now." so we have yet to see the box art.
Aw. It looks so official! I hope the real box art keeps the colorful background, at least. Too many games are focused on grey and brown realism.
Actually, many games have that blue/orange contrast on the cover, because it catches your attention. It's the same with movie posters. Try read this article: http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2011/11/2011_a_year_in_orange_and_blue.php
Most of those examples looked like Red/Blue. But, I guess you're right. I still like the placeholder box art.
Yeah, but those were just some examples. I'm not saying it is bad, I'm just saying that what you said about the game covers being all brown and grey isn't completely true. However, I remember when the Playstation 3 was released, then most of the games had that brownish filter over the graphics, to make it look more "realistic". The fanmade covers in this thread are quite cool though. I like prefer those which are white, black and red though (my favourite colours. ;P) Another boxart that makes use of the whole blue/orange method is Devil May Cry 4. Blue, orange, red and purple contrasting eachother.
Nice Find Edsabre , Really Good Art , But It's Not The Official Box Art , DomVs In NT Forums Confirmed That It's Not Official Source
