BioShock Infinite to feature reversible cover

14 December 2012

Responding to the drama-drama around the “terrible” BioShock Infinite box art, Irrational Games has decided to try and make everybody happy and add a reversible cover to the game so people who think this sort of stuff is really important can choose to swap it around before putting it on a shelf and never looking at it again. I’m sure that’s like a totally deep metaphor for free will or something.

“I’m happy to announce that the game will come with a reversible cover,” Irrational boss man Ken Levine posted on the company’s website. “But that’s not all. We want to hear your voice on what that cover should be. To that end, we’ve arranged a poll below that lets you choose from several potential reversible covers. I’ve got my favorite, but I’m not telling which. We’ve got to do this quickly to meet our print deadlines, so vote soon. Like, NOW!”

Several new covers have already been added to the list for your critical perusal, with more to come, just in case none of those meet your very stringent requirements for the bit of paper between the box and the plastic wrapping.

    Sigh… caving in to the cry-babies…

    I’m going to see the cover once when I get the game, again when I take the discs out and again when I replace them. Steam purchases will never see the damn thing. Who cares?

    And anyway… I quite liked the artwork on the cover.
