Looks good! We know that Kamal has green lighting and is an Underseer, so could that be an Overseer?

Have nothing to do? Helping with the Universe at War wiki would be most appreciated.

It's probably Kamal Rex himself, in front of the planet Earth, which is basically his ambition to take over the planet. Looks really nice imo, but could be less grey.

Overseers imo would be more grander, plus I like to think Kamal custom made his levitation backpack thingy for himself.

I like that so much better tan our cover.

Its cleaner and less busy.

I like my games busy and on fire and the game covers simple and clean so I prefer it when there is just a picture of a gam character or something


I am intrugued at why the title is in english but the subtitle is not

Then kick the buts of sega europe and make sure we get the game the same time as you staters!
It's illogical to say that a Mac is better than a PC, because a Mac itself is a PC.

LOL

I just burst out laughing when I saw the German cover. Maybe it's just because Kamal looks funny. He floats but his legs just hang out of his floating suit? Looks really awkward and uncomfortable

Thats an established standard on the German market, mostly for films. For example, Hot Fuzz wasnt just simply Hot Fuzz, but "Hot Fuzz- Zwei abgewichste Profis" (Two hard-boiled professionals).

Take my word that this sounds awful 99% of the time, and is no different in this case, sadly (Universe at War: target Earth. Yurk).

I do like that cover, but the US one is more stylish...in a different way.

I'd rather have no cover at all only to get the game at the same time as US <.<

Hell I'd take it in a bag with dog poo just to get it at the same time

Looks good :D

Do the other European versions use the same design?
