JEDI OUTCAST Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 Just To let You Guys Know That This Is Going to be the box cover for Jedi Academy. it has been Confirmed by lucasarts and it is on the Jedi Academy Site.
Neverhoodian Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 So it is the official box cover. There was some debate on the subject. Meh, they could've been more creative. To me, the symbol means Jedi Outcast, and it might stop a few buyers, leading them to think it's just an expansion to JO. Heck, reusing the Jedi Knight CD case with the quote from Yoda and the hands clasping the lightsaber could've worked better in my opinion. Oh well. I don't exactly buy games for their box art .
Prime Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 I like it. If find its simplicity appealing. Kind of like me
Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 I still say that they should have done a box cover that looks like one of the movie posters. Kind of like these http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&q=Jedi+Academy&spell=1 not exactly like these, but close
Obi-Wan X Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 How cheap XD. *pictures an official meeting on boxcover* Man : "How about two blades crossing and eyes in between?" Man 2: No way! Man : Then what? Man 3: Yoda! Man 2: Luke! Man: No...how about THIS for an idea! Almost EXACTLY the same cover as JO but with a different colors and cracks on the front! Man 2: ..... Man 3: ..... Man 2 + 3: YEA!

Man 2 + 3: YEA! True dat.....Ok now back to my own self. Yes you put it how it probubly happened. But I wouldn't give a rats ass if the cover looked like Jabba dancing with Jar Jar with smoking some wacky tabaccy, if they would JUST RELEASE THE GAME ALREADY!!!!! *smacks self, then visualizes Jabba and Jar Jar Dancing and smoking grass together, then smacks self again*
Neverhoodian Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 ROFL. : and smoking grass and dancing?! That would be the day!
Rumor Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 yeah, i was wrong on that one. i went by what had been on amazon and other sites for months. and then last months pc gamer had an ad in it with that so i saw my mistake then
adillon Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 i personally like it. the JK in the symbol keeps things consistent with jedi outcast. the concrete/stone background is simple and reflects the atmosphere of the academy ... it's not about what the place looks like, but what goes on there. i have no problem with it whatsoever. and it goes along with the old acronym, K.I.S.S. ... Keep It Simple Stupid. of course, in the end it doesn't really matter what the outside looks like ... it's what inside that matters!!
FK | unnamed Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 it should come in plain brown paper like the really good magazines do.

toms Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 Surely it should have been the JK, but the circle should have been changed into an A or removed? I still don't get what the cracked stone has to do with an academy, but oh well. Stll think it looks like something i could knock up in photoshop in 5 mins
Obi-Wan X Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 I agree with toms , looks like a simple job in Paintshop or Photoshop. For people that aren't really looking into the game, its going to appear to be an expansion, especially when they look on the back and see a lot of the same things from JO, and the box being virtually the same as JO doesn't help to destroy that idea either .

Hey, you never know, but it might just decrease the # of newbie fanboys in JA.
JDKnite188 Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 Remember, its just a box cover. If the box cover is crap but the game is awesome, should we really be concerned? JA could come in a plastic Walmart bag for all I care (actually, on second thought, no, I will stick to the box. . . . )
defalc Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 Kinda lazy on the part of the publishers, or whoever makes the box IMHO. It looks like a cheap Photoshop job. Plus that logo - you can see the 'II' for Jedi Knight II, and O for Outcast. Makes it seem like an expansion.
The Cheat Posted August 16, 2003 Posted August 16, 2003 i dont care what the cover looks like, i just want to play the game
