Look at that! It's like a giant wad of awesome being blown all over your face.

The Bulletstorm box art was released last week and I've been looking at it at least once a day; the same way I used to look at my 8x10 Winona Ryder.  The cover does everything to emphasize the game as coming from the lineage of Gears of War while having a sense of humor about itself not usually found in the aforementioned series.

I've been watching a lot of Bulletstorm footage recently and I've come to the conclusion that Bulletstorm is everything that the new Duke Nukem Forever should have been.  Watch some yourself and you'll see what I mean.

    I believe you should use "It’s like a giant wad of awesome being blown all over your face." a lot more often! Make it a trademark of yours, a seal of approval. Create a little icon you can stick on pictures of media you approve of. Also, note the xoxo boot mark on the face of the decomposing... thing, whatever it is. Nice touch there.

    What I'm thinking it that Bullet Storm has potential in multiplayer: with each player chaining attacks on enemies, making for some awesome effects. Has some sort of co-op been announced on this title?

    At least it gets the point across I guess? Well maybe there should of been a neat +50 in there somewhere.

    I didn't really like this cover too much, but I can see how it reflects the game, silly and crazy.
    btw: this cover reminds me of the shadowrun cover actually, idk why, it just does =/

    I would expect to see that box art on a poster for a crazy, stupid 80's action movie or something. And that ain't a bad thing. That's freaking awesome.

    That guy on the right sucks. He has bad hair, and he's clearly not killing anything. Get off the box, dumbass!
