It's been a while since I've made a box so I thought I should make something. I've been playing this game recently, and I've gotta say, it's awesome. It took around 3 - 4 hours to make, and was quite difficult. There's a lot of small editing and tweaks in this box, most of which you probably can't notice unless you view in high detail. I had to produce a new PC template too, which took time. Anyway, I decided to go for the spacey theme, lots of colours, blurry lighting, dark etc.
Credit to LEGOslayer for the Commander Shepherd render on the front (PlanetRenders). I've edited and used this image quite extensively too: link. Most others can easily be found on Google or wherever quite easily.
The slip cover is delicious. Wish you'd done some custom work on the Games for Windows logo, which is a little jarring for me. The screenshots kinda create an overly-sharp edge that isn't perfectly round by my eyes, but it's forgivable. Other than that and the slanted tagline, everything is very pretty.
I'm glad you all like it but what text would you all be referring to? Is it the font, effects or positioning?
Also, do none of you prefer the box to the slipcase? xD I spent a lot more time on it, 'tis all. The slipcase addition was more of a last minute thought. I spent ages working on Shepherd and all the things going on behind him. The colours, lighting, effects etc. High detail, man, high detail...
#4, well it was that or a big Games for Windows template at the top of the box, although it's only actually there to indicate that it's a PC game. I think it's more presentable. Do logos ever often fit the cover? Anyway, thanks for the favourite, man!

#2, I second that, the slip is delicious. I think the whole thing is pretty great.

I really like the colors but I think they text could have been pulled off nicer.

#4 Agree about the text and that window's start button logo doesn't fit the cover at all.
Fav for the slip only!

The slip covers are yummy. Not a fan of the back though, something in it is nagging me.

No, I thought the whole thing was really well executed, if not completely unique.

#8, I second that.

Thanks for the great feedback! Is there anything you think I could work on?

The back is a bit empty on some parts and I dont like the windows logo being right there. Looks like there should be a bar right there.

Wow, this is incredible. The detail and colors in this are all great.

#14, sorry I know this is delayed but I didn't realise you'd posted - as in the Games for Windows Live bar like at the top of this box? link
