You are only simply embarrassing yourself. I had no idea somebody could be both so incredibly dense as well as filled with such blind nationalistic pride, that it prevents them from forming rational thought, free of childish stereotype.
You from reddit?

I joined this site specifically to point out how stupid and ignorant you are. The English language? Are you serious? Weapons? Cars? Food? How smart are you to say that we ruined all of these? Did you come to this conclusion after seeing what publishers did for one video game? What did you do that makes it okay to shit on other people? You're post proves that you share the same qualities that make up the American stereotype.

I'm an American and I think that this box art should not be blamed on my country but rather THQ's marketing department. That said, the majority of the nation's population are contributing to the global "suck quotient" daily and they are pretty stupid so they probably wouldn't like an actually better cover for the game.

It's not only America, I promoted the original Cover Art in my country, and majority of the comments were like "Nah, it looks like a book cover, I wouldn't buy it"; whereas I loved that cover art due to appearance like a book cover, which is a sign of existence of a storyline.

I'm not an American, but I would also like to defend Americans a bit. It's not that they are so stupid and ignorant, it's that most people are regardless of nationality.

By the way, the best books usually have very modest covers. Those with fancy colorful ones are usually rubbish, but they are sold much better.

Im not american or anti-american but i find it funny how bashing america makes people feel cool or part of the group nowadays .
Guess everyone likes to be a sheep or is a sheep regardless of knowing it or even denying it.

Hey guys, here's an idea: How about instead of bashing on another's countries, why don't we just universally agree that we pretty much all hate the box art?
Sound good?
