Have you been interested in buying a videogame and when you go to buy it, the game case has a logo right on the front from a videogame site with a few words of accolades bestow on the game? I bought Patapon 2 recently, and the original cover for the SCEA release never had the ign.com logo on it, but it does now. What was surprising was that I saw the box for Patapon 1 at the store, and the cover has been reprinted to have the ign.com logo on it as well. I own the original printing of Patapon 1 and it never had the ign.com logo on it. Nor did it reference Patapon 1 as ign's game of 2008 on the game case.
I hate the fact videogame companies put accolades from gaming sites on their game cases. Yes, printing that information on the game case may help push sales of that game.
I just don’t find it necessary to put logos of companies that never paid to have that game created and manufactured on the game case. On posters and ads, I think should be the only place that companies should put accolades from gaming websites on.
