That looks great, though it looks like the alternate art that's behind the front of a game sleeve.

Sure hope its the box art, looks awesome.

That looks pretty hot, thumbs up.

@Dagbiker: Oooh, I wanna play that game.

I really dislike all the Halo boxarts. They always go for these panoramic shots but they always seem to forget panoramas are lateral not vertical. 

Super baller. All that blue looks really fucking nice, and there's just a shitload of detail on everything.

1. Blue + Orange - Check.

2. Guy with gun - Check.

3. Profit.

Seems like a recipe for success!

It will look different when they put the "ONLY FOR XBOX 360" banner on it, covering the top third :D

Way to make me sad!

Then next year they can release a GOTY edition modeled after this beauty

Looks freaking awesome! I'm not even a Halo fan, but that looks great.

Those ripples or whatever they are in the upper left don't make much sense to me. But looks awesome anyways.

Holy damn, I love it.

I don't like it as the box art.. I mean it's a really nice picture but it looks like a concept art or something. I can't really put my finger on why I don't like it. Am I the reason why you americans always get the bad box art?

As someone who really enjoys concept art, I think most covers should feature concept and production art. Though, at first glance it seems more like a CG render.

That looks pretty cool.

It is very busy, but it is growing on me.

For some reason it looks more like a poster than box art to me, but that's not a bad thing. I like it.

Before I was seeing the pictures from my phone. After looking the box art from decent screen I have to admit it's looking awesome. I don't know if it's CG or drawn concept art but it at least looks (like you said) CG render and I think that's somewhat fitting box art for Halo. It shouldn't be too artsy because that would mislead consumer about a game which is all about shooting aliens in the face. There's nothing unique about that and would probably end up hurting more than doing good.

That is a pretty awesome boxart, I like the poster-like style to it. With the Forerunner Shield World closing behind them while ships are crashing through to the inside of the planet, and Master Chief in the center of the shot climbing over the mountain, a new unexplored world ahead of him.

Mister Chief and Oonsk approves!

Gallery

I approve

Still got nothing on the Resistance 3 cover as far as i'm concerned

The first good Halo cover I've seen.

I think you're forgetting the Halo Wars Limited Edition:

Shame the game wasn't better.

That's the ugliest Halo boxart I've seen, and I'm a huge Halo fan. The Arbiter looks like a toy!

Wow. That's some pretty awesome box art. Hopefully, the game itself can match it.

Nothing can over-ride my automatic cynicism towards a fourth Halo.

That said, it's a cute cover

Good stuff. Hope the game is good.

That is really damn stylish!

@Vegetable_Side_Dish: good one

Much better than the promo box art.

Man Mater Cheif looks really different from how he looked in Halo 3. Kinda put off by it. This looks cool though.

I like it.

Looks good, makes me wish all developers would put a little more effort into their box art.

While the logos and stuff will ultimately make it look less awesome, we already have a clean version we can print up and put on the box, so I'm gonna say it's pretty awesome.
