Check Out the 'Aliens: Colonial Marines' Box Art

Gearbox certainly has had their hands full for some time now. Aside from producing a hit RPG/Shooter (Borderlands), a new entry their flagship Brothers in Arms franchise, as well as reviving the dying Duke Nukem IP, they have also been hush-hush about another high-profile project for several years now. Aliens Colonial Marines, the highly anticipated game adaptation/follow-up to the Sci-Fi classic, Aliens, was finally unveiled by the studio at E3 2011.

With the backing of Twentieth Century Fox and a talented team that is devoted to paying tribute to the popular series, Colonial Marines is certainly worth keeping an eye on. Unfortunately, the game still has no concrete release date thanks to several vague delay announcements. Luckily, that hasn't stopped the studio from unveiling their sweet new box art for the game:

 The box art reminds me a lot of the Alpha Protocol art (Hopefully the similarities stop there) thanks to the minimal color palette and the use of the plain white background. There isn't a whole lot that I can say except that I really dig the sleekness of the art direction. A lot of games today have some really awful art that panders to the more immature members of this generation. What do you think?

Aliens: Colonial Marines launches in Fall 2012. This box art will presumably be featured on all major platforms.
