Box Art Clichés: Guys-with-guns Edition

Because there are only so many ways you can pose with a gun:

Stock PoseNumber of Occurrences
No Caption Provided
The Oscar Mike - You've got places to go and faces to shoot. An extra thousand points for every Black Hawk or Abrams in the background.
19
No Caption Provided
This is my rifle. There are many like it etc. - A classic pose that somehow always leaves the soldier looking agitated with his current predicament. Covers only one half of the box, usually leaving the other open for explosive scenery.
20
No Caption Provided
Sean Connery is about to shoot you - The game is taking you hostage and the fourth wall will not rescue you.
18
No Caption Provided
Pistol Pose - I guess we all know who to blame for this one.
25
No Caption Provided
The Ominous Look Back - I'm not sure if Dudebro™ is angry with us or just camera shy.
10
No Caption Provided
John Woo Presents - Because putting dual-wielding on the back of the box isn't enough.
6
No Caption Provided
Triple Threat - Charlie's Angels have got nothing on them.
8
No Caption Provided
Oh Look, A Squirrel! - Apparently, you & your mates have found something really intriguing off-camera and can't stop staring & pointing at it.

25, 26, and 27 look like they might be photoshopped versions of the same photograph!

Brilliant list, Sir! One thing though: the European box-art for The Getaway was much cooler. Perhaps it might also be more cliched too? I never looked at videogame covers in this manner before. Now I can't stop! Help me.
