This is my box for the first round of the 'What's Guna Happen Next?" Competition. System Shock 2 is, by far, my favorite PC game of all time. My cover features my own drawing of Shodan, the "evil" computer character from the game.

It's really good, but I don't think the blood splatters are needed.

#6, Fair enough. I added them because it's a pervasive theme in the game. There are messages written in blood on the walls throughout the space ship (as you see in one of the screenshots). Since all of the crew were killed prior to the start of the game, you also find room after room of dismembered bodies and splattered blood everywhere. The game wants you to understand how chaotic and violent the deaths of the crew were. I wanted to reflect that in the design of my box. Thanks for your opinion though. :)

#8, I think ELC was just pointing out that the blood splatters stand out too much from all the gray and green on the back.

It's a nice touch, but it does tend to distract more than complement. As far as I'm concerned, the placement is well executed though, so I don't have too much problems with the splatters being on there.

It's, uh, electrifying. ;) Great job!

I also think that the blood splatter on the "Collector's Edition" part could be removed, as it ruins the nice green color scheme a bit. The splatters on the screens are fine though, since they are isolated.

Excellent box... real nice colour scheme and effects there... although I think you could have removed the bloood.. I don't think it's really needed. Thought the game was pretty good (even though I don't play FPS)

#18, BioShock was the "spiritual successor" to the System Shock series.

I'll make up a version without the blood. Seems like a lot of people agree that they don't care for the splatters.
