Ok, ok, Falcoon is good, ok, but... Would it hurt them to ask Falcoon a GOOD picture for a change?
And then, where is Hiroaki when you need him, goddammit!

In comparison to the 2002 PS2 cover or anything Capcom's ever given us in America, it's not all that bad. That's a hell of a qualifier to be sure, but I s'pose that's just my way of getting to the fact that I don't mind it.

Man, that link was weird... it loads the page and then quickly redirects to the main page. Anyway... yeah, that cover doesn't look that great at all. Let's hope it's not the final version. Bleh. I'd have to see it closer up, but that one guy in the foreground looked really weird (I still haven't learned his name... that team's still Ashley, Fairy Prince, and Steve Fox to me...).

Well, I like it (should I say I'm sorry? ^_^'). Or better, I'd like it had Shen and Duo Lon better proportioned faces, they look kinda strange.

Isn't the in-game art his? Its very similar to KOF2002 and SvC's one, and I think he did those... didn't he? I don't remember it much clearly right now... o_O

My shit looks better than the ps2 2002 cover. So, thats not a fair comparison. But, I do actually like the 2003 art.

What's wrong with the cover?

I don't really like Falcoon's style much, but if you do like Falcoon's style what's wrong with the picture?

And while I'm at it, where DID this expectation for phenomenal box art come from? I'd really love to know. Examples?

I actually rather like the KOF 2003 box art, though I would've prefered it feature more than just the Ambigously Gay Trio.

I don't see how it's dull,maybe it's the colors. I don't like the way Shen Wu's face came out for some reason. But I'm not too big a Falcoon fan anyway,so.......

I... kind of like this cover. It has its good points.

The background is incredible, for one. I really like the upward diagonal angle, its something you definitely don't see in videogame covers often. That and the general color scheme give it a dynamic feel.

But the face on shen is waaay screwed up. Ash also has a wierd face, his hair is too big, and the way the shadows are done make it look like he has breasts. duo lon doesn't look that great either.

Fantastic cover. Shen´s head and ear have a slightly weird proportion, but Falcoon is not known for correct anatomy...

I love the color scheme, the way the green contrasts with the overall tone and the background. It also feels so moody and sad, somehow. I really like it. Much better than both SVC covers.

Now, ports never have the same cover as the AES, right? I guess i´ll have to get a high-res scan of this...

If you send SNK enough complaint letters they will make him redo it and then replace him with another artist like they did with Nona.

Shen must be replaced by an even gayer character, he doesn't fit correctly on the team.

This cover, I have seen worst; but it could have been much better, I'm not to thrilled by it.

LOL,yes. One girly Chinese guy,another Chinese guy with a pink shirt(gah!) and a French bishie(Ash is the true meaning of bishie,heh) and you got the makings of one of the fruitest teams ever.

Oh, cool.

I wish I had more of a reason to get the software than just wanting to play around with it (I guess I'd add a talking head to my site or something). I wish there was a site up where we could play with those without having to put our e-mail into Hanes' database or whatever...
