Great looking cover, that may sell a few games by itself.

# 2 DirtyJerz32 @ 01/23/10 04:30 PM

# 4 kennyacid @ 01/23/10 05:28 PM

# 5 bigsmallwood @ 01/23/10 05:45 PM

LOVE the cover!!!! That has a football feel to it!

# 6 TheWatcher @ 01/23/10 06:09 PM

I hope the game is as good as the box art.

Nice cover.

Looks like we got Ray Lewis, Emmitt Smith and Warren Sapp on there.

I doubt you're the only one.

Absolutely amazing cover! Coming from a strong graphic design background I can tell you this one hits on so many levels.

I must say the logo is very, very strong; in fact, it reminds me exactly of the NBA logo which conveys the speed & movement of the game yet it's still very balanced. The logo will make the game very easy to market & brand. The name texts are very clean, crips and easy to read as well. The player's pose has a very strong sequential appeal to it -- comic art -- with the layout being in-your-face. On top of that, the player is outfitted in the BB uniform so any potential buyer already has a flash of what to expect. And as other people mentioned, the inclusion of using #52 will immediatly subconsciously draw the football fan to think of current greats: Willis, Lewis, etc and being a LB, gamers will know what to expect: HITS!

Seriously, absolutely love this cover. I wish I could find out who the artist is.

swweettt cant wait

Nice cover, but the more I watch the videos, the more I dislike the body models. They all look the same. The WR's look as built as the linemen.

I feel sorry for the people who are anxiously awaiting this game. My hearts go out to you.

Sweet after the longest day of work in a very long time, it was great to come home and see some wicked awesome BB box art! Looks promising, at least if the game sucks I got some good box art on my shelf. I think the game has a lot of promise though so I am not worried. They been working on the game for too long to disappoint.

It said $49.99 on one of the sites. That's not been confirmed yet as far as I know though.

I just hope we get more actual videos soon...it would suck if they don't release anything before release because they know all the sports fans here are gonna buy it without seeing anything ahead of time...

# 20 Michael90002002 @ 01/24/10 04:06 PM

It looks great! I can't wait to play it!
