Unless videogame box art is something truly outrageous, artsy, or so bad it rolls into good territory, it can be hard to talk about. The cover artwork for Supreme Commander 2 is exactly none of those things, so you just know you’re in for a riveting story here.
It does its job in that it says “this is a game about machines fighting other machines. Things will explode, and, uh, the game is published by Square Enix, oddly enough.” I find it kind of funny and even a tad bit strange that the game is rated E10+.
What, is robot violence not “real” enough to dictate a Teen rating? Yeah, you’re probably right. I almost think Gas Powered Games should’ve taken an in-game screenshot from Supreme Commander 2, made sure it was the right dimensions for proper box art, and called it a day.
