Okay I'm already tired of pretending that Matt Hazard has starred in dozens of videogames. I give you, the faithful Gaming Target reader, more credit than that. I'm sure that you've heard about Matt Hazard by now. About how he starred in a series of fictitious video games spanning the last 25 years, only to peter out during the last generation of consoles with an ill-conceived implosion of the franchise, Choking Hazard: Candy Gramm. About how this game will make you laugh your butt off. You missed that last part? Let me explain. "
Can you judge a video game by its bad, sometimes bonkers box art? More often than not.
The Phalanx cover I do remember well, to be fair it did show a star ship on the cover too.
The worst box art in recent memory was the Doom 2016 one. That cover was depressingly generic.
We groan at the cheese. Also, The Master of Disguise.
