Forums - Sony - Ratchet and Clank:TOD art-cover in NA could compromise its sales?

I like the NA one... but you do have a point about "What the hell is this game about" if people don't know about it.

If this game can sell, anything can.

Only 100k left till it beats deadlock (Every R&C on the Ps2 has about 300-500k sales more in NA than Others so I'm assuming Other of deadlocked is about 500k) and almost 1mil till it gets to R&C 3.

I think over time it will sell a couple hundred thousand more especially after Greatest Hits edition comes out.

yea man when I saw the art cover and I just thought whatever without even reading the name of the game(I usually browse games quickly in a store and when an art cover gets my attnetion I pick it up and read the whole thing) ,,,,I m sure lot of customers do the same.and this art cover just make a big whatever impression in your mind the first time you see it.

 Greatest Hits will get a big red thing on top. People will look at it then... Also this game hasn't even been out for a year yet... these games tend to sell for about 1 and a half then put in a bargin bin for another 1/2 a year. So lets see how it can do.

it looks like a robot with a weired hat and big ears.

the euro one looks way better

 

ROFL!! That's what I think too XD

When i'll buy my ps3 I will get the game even if the artbox looks like crap. Personnally I heard about R&C with the 2nd game on ps2. Not knowing what it was I didn't care much about the cover. My friend told me it was good and I tried it. Personnally i don,t mind too much about the artbox. :)



The world is Square.

I just wish insomniac would change the art cover  for the greatest hits.

 



 

 

 

Oh whoops, that was supposed to be a game.

I was using a different link for something else and I didn't copy and paste the link correctly.

Here is the game.

hahaha nice one dtewi.

The EU cover is better but I really don't think boxart has a noticeable impact on sales. A few units here and there maybe but I doubt it would have sold even 50k more with a better cover.
