User blog comment:Commdor/Mass Effect Covers That Could Have Been/@comment-1891865-20110520174800

After taking a long look, I still prefer the original box art compared to the alternate covers. To me, Saren seems pretty tame on box art #2, #3, #6, and lacks an aura of sinisterness and mystery. On the other hand, Shepard appears as though he is the antagonist on box art #5 or lacks presence with a half-shot face on #1 and #6. Box art #2 don't feel epic and #4 is too revealing.

If I have to choose, I would lean towards #3, but remodel Shepard a little on the box art. He looks rather odd in it.
