I realize that boxes for this game are being done to death atm, but there are two simple reasons why I made it:
1- I haven't made a box for a long time and felt kinda guilty about it
2- I've never been so psyched about a game before
The box took me the better part of saturday, but the result could've been worse, so I'm satisfied.
Xcore gave me a link to the template; probably made by someone called Sens.
I like the idea, but it's not executed as well as it could be. I love the images... the design is great. But the front ruins it, as does the low quality of the entire thing. Had the quality of the text been a bit better, I probably would have faved it.
Not a bad design, but it's just kinda standard. Everyone's got that same image of Altair and everyone puts it dead center on the cover, so kudos for doing something else with the front but it's just too safe. It doesn't feel like you pushed the design at all. I don't mean to come down so hard on your box, but I tend to be overly critical when a flood of boxes hit the site for the same game.
Thanks for all the comments and advice. I'm actually well aware of the numbers of AC2 boxes on this site, I just couldn't help making it.
Maybe I'll make something more unique next time... but for now, I only seem to be good at humour boxes (2 out of 2 are in HoF- 0 out of 4 unofficial ones are).
Will try harder next time.

This is beginning to get a bit tiresome.

Not a single on of these AC2 boxes in the past week have been un-awesome, as I can recall.

Them being awesome isn't the problem, it's just the abundance of them.

Yes the image of the assassin is getting old but this is still stunning.

Yea I think Assassins Creed 2 boxes should stop for a while atleast until new art is released.

I'm happy that you didn't use Ezio for the front. :D
