This image of Super Meat Boy, Bandage Girl, and Dr. Fetus is effing insane for all the right reasons. It's easy to forget there was a time when box art was used more to guide your imagination than anything else. The games themselves were rendered so simplistically back then that it was on the player to extrapolate.
So yeah, not only is the picture itself great, but it's being used for the PC Special Edition, which we now have some details for. It will be printed and sold through the game's official site and include some nice bonus content: behind-the-scenes videos, design sketches, illustrations, and previously unseen characters and art.
Team Meat is aiming for the end of January and looking at a price of around $20 to $25.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

This is a thing that would instantly make my 360 collection complete, most likely forever.
But it went up to 1200.
I really wanna grab it but not for that price personally they should have just kept it at 800 points.
If ever they make an Independence Day 2, this is the movie poster.
And in the case of US box art, be as ugly and inappropriate as possible.
Totally going to re-buy it just for this cover art.
that would be terrible
