    Great, it holds up! 47%
    It's OKAY 20%
    Pretty bad and outdated. 9%
    HE ACTUALLY HAS FIVE DIGITS, YOU GUYS! 22%

    Personally, I really like the cover art since it highlights a detail in regards to the protagonist's digits (and possibly other cyborgs as well), that he doesn't actually just have three digits but it just appears that way due to each pair of fingers being surgically fused together. It's a pretty dumb reason but I thought it's a nice touch and the cover itself IMO totally holds up to this day.

    I get it! "holds up", because he's holding his hand up.

    Erm, actually, I really like it; it's striking.

    I like it, largely because I tend to favour simple colours and contrast from a design standpoint. It's also surprisingly minimalistic, which is unusual for a game released in the 90s.

    @evilnights: I agree! They didn't go for a cheesy cover art that had the cyborg protagonist doing a back flip with explosions in the back ground or something else that is just as "busy" looking.

    I get it! "holds up", because he's holding his hand up.

    Erm, actually, I really like it; it's striking.

    Man, I should have drove that pun to the ground ALA @mattbodega style.

    I love it, but I have a really soft spot for 90s PC box art, both bad and good. I could totally see that art being used today, though.

    I think it looks pretty fuckin' cool compared to a lot of older box art. I actually saved a JPEG of it after the livestream finished.

    I just bought this on GOG a few days ago, and as I did I realized how much I liked the art. It really holds up.
