    I’m so happy with the art change and this definitely sets the tone for game. DOOOO WAAANT.

    • Wizzel says:

      Did they take this straight out of the Mad Max series or what?

      • Tristan says:

        Alas, too few people recognize how important Mad Max was to the B-series and sci-fi post-apocalyptic genre…

        Nobody knows where all those crazy racing/destroy games come from. Sad.

        • Wizzel says:

          Too true. The Fallout games are almost built around the Mad Max films.

      • Tristan says:

        As many other games too. All the racing games where you get trashy cars with spikes and where you can destroy your opponents… There are a lot of them and they all come from there.

        Speaking of Mad Max, has anyone seen the movie Doomsday? It’s my favorite movie even though it’s kind of a vague remake.

    Hmm, what is this?

    • BenOfBodom says:

      The cover art for Borderlands I think mate…

    • StuntDouble2483 says:

      Think Fallout 3 (rpg first person shooter in a wasteland) meets Diablo (lots of loot) built around Left 4 Deads co-op based gameplay and you’ve got a pretty good idea.

        In other words (and I use this term very hesitantly, as it is certainly overused but equally certainly appropriate here), it is epic win. Epic, epic win.

    Wait, I think I’ve seen this style somewhere before…

    • VoltRabbit says:

      ROFL

    He put briefs on his head and then tried to eat a kitchen sink stopper.

  5. But what will the game be like?
    Press X to force everything in that head of yours out your ear.

    Lovely.

  6. Ray says:

    I make that gesture @ work sometimes… LOL!

  7. Mr Meyagi says:

    this game is going to be phenominal! ive posted a few tidbits in the forums…or just you tube the shit out of it…i have not been this excited for a game in a really long time

  8. HellCat says:

    Lul wut? Never heard of the game. Care to elighten me?

    • pittofdoom says:

      The best thing: the weapons are fully customizable, with over 750,000 different possible combinations.

      • StuntDouble2483 says:

        I’m not really sure if they’re customizable by you…what the game does it is creates weapons based on several different parameters (gun type, ammo type, auto, semi-auto, bolt action, clip fed, cylinder fed, belt fed, scope/no scope), for a total of something like half a billion combinations.

        I think finding every one should be an achievement:

        From My Cold Dead Hands! — 5 pts (LOL!)

  9. Pete Cooper says:

    Why did a Combine get sent to prison? Why did said Combine then break out of prison and start tripping out like some kind of whacked out gangsta?

    I don’t understand. ;-;

    • LAZR Blade 14 says:

      Come to think of it, he does look like a CP unit without a shirt on…

  10. LordOsiris says:

    Hmm.
    I am excited for the game, but I think this is an odd choice.

  11. PikminGod says:

    WOW! I definitely have a feeling that will get changed. Walmart tends to not carry games with such graphic cover art. I will be shocked if it remains unaltered

  12. DethPwn says:

    …Meh. I fear no game will recapture the beauty that is the Sneak King box art :D
