The original Portal had very simple box art to go along with it's small scope, so naturally the sequel needed something with a tad more production value, but why the co-op bots of all things? The best reason I can come to is that valve wants to ensure people remember the bots if/when they come back around in the future, but I would enjoy looking at the cover much better if I got to see a nice environment with a few turrets and some foliage, or Chell doing something that Chell likes to do. Even with Portal 2's much larger focus, some art with less inherent action would really help complete the overall atmosphere the game relies on so much (at least for me).
