Out of the two, I would choose the 2nd one, the one on the right.
I would also change the background to something other than white, maybe a city behind Spiderman.

Needs more webs. And more shadows.

I don't really like either of the choices, but between the two I would have to go with the one on the left.
After watching the video about the game I would like to see the cover be Spider-Man with one half the red suit and the other the black suit since they say you can change between suits.

Shouldn't a "Web of Shadows" game have more, um, shadows? Just a thought.

Seriously. How is it you can design an entire game but flake out on the cover art? I've seen better Spiderman art on deviantart.com.

Spidey holding the city has a more focused tone. I likes.

I just wanted to add that the Spider-Man in the promo art looks terrible. His eyes are off and his face is misshapen.

"Taking a page out of the Call of Duty 4 manual of how to successfully launch a video game..."
Letting potential customers pick the box art isn't going to sell a game. Getting good pre-release reviews, now THAT will successfully launch the game. CoD4 sold well because it was a good game, not because Acti decided to let us pick the cover image (well, the amount of zoom anyway). I wish game developers and publishers would get their act together and push more effort into making games better than these silly promotional polls. I'd put money on the table and say this game will be in the bargin bin by xmas, over 6 months on CoD4 is still on the main shelves of my local game stores....

Having designed many box covers, I think these are both pathetic. Halo 3 will always be my crowning glory, but even most of my Sonic boxes turned out better. The illustration is crappy, The logo is to boring of a render and does not need the cheesy combination of a drop shadow AND a white glow, and lastly the masking is beyond bad.

Jayslacks! Have a little respect! I mean.. you just said that to THE designer of the box art for halo 3!!! Can you imagine enjoying that game even one iota if not for his box art?

Andrew said...
Lawl at the fact that you expect us to believe that you made the cover art for Halo 3.

Agreed with jayslacks.
Even if you're telling us the truth, go stroke your ego a little more somewhere else

I think both covers suck.
The title of the game is "Web of Shadows."
Not "Spidey's Big Adventure" (left pic) or "Spiderman X" (right pic).
I think there should be more webs and shadows on the screen... and perhaps a little more emphasis that Venom is actually in the game would help too.

Both look bad. The one on the right looks to be the worst of the two.
