I think it's fairly superior over the first game's boxart.

Do I see a little flash of bush?

Also I thought you left your old party behind.

Not too shabby. And much better than Mass Effect 1's cover.

Mediocre.

The cover of a game is an amazing chance for an artist to make something attractive, memorable, that catches your eye, and is truly artistic. Not that Mass Effect is a game that deserves to be called any of the above, but anyway, it's just another generic looking cover.

Guess the MASS EFFECT 2 will do for the kids.

The girl in the picture isn't Ashley, it's a new character Miranda. She was in the iphone Mass Effect game along with a negro character with my first name who will also be in Shepard's new party. The krogan also isn't Wrex from the first game, it's a new one seemingly called Grunt.

So it's all the characters from the original with new names except Kaidan is a cybernegro?

Seems to me like they're going for a 50's sci fi feeling with the boxart. It's too cheesy to be anything else really.

Shepard.....is not black enough.
Still looks like he wants to grab the fuck out of some collars though.

Ain't actually that bad. Has an oldschool feel to it.. reminds me of Neocron's cover, almost.

This style is good for games. You need to either go minimalist (Quake) or pseudo-comic booky (this, most adventure games).

Replace "Mass Effect 2" with the name of any possible SPACE MARINE style FPS and the box art would still fit.

The entire art seems to be little more then LOOK! GRITTY MAN IN SPACE ARMOR! GUN!

Edit: Looking at it again, it's that stupid bit of Shepard (assumably) at the front that ruins it. If you put someone in the front at that perspective, they become the center of attention. And he just looks bland and...well fuck, goofy.
