Game box art challenge?

The Rocketeer?
Unnh, I meant, Rocket Ranger.

I already posted Rocket Ranger a while back. Sorry I didn’t make a wiki yet. Anyone else wants to, they are welcome to have at it…

I took the liberty of making one. I’ll retract it if it isn’t satisfying.
Edit: and figured how to make it a wiki.

I wanna say Dragon Wars. You might have given away too much, by saying that it’s a knee.

Pod · July 31, 2016, 9:59pm

Aww man. Out of all the glistening body parts adoring pulp-fantasy inspired box art, you had to pick the correct one.

(Really though: Did me saying it was a knee help? To me it looks very knee-like no matter what.).

I never actually played Dragon Wars for longer than 5 minutes, but I loved it’s weird square box with oily people on the front.

I think definitely knowing that it was a knee helped me make the leap, yes.

Therefore, I’ll try not to say anything:

Foiled by a knee!

As for your image: G-Police?

anymunym · August 1, 2016, 6:11pm

Not G-Police:

Descent 2?

anymunym · August 2, 2016, 6:05am

Not Descent 2:

LeeAbe · August 2, 2016, 6:37am

Urban Strike?

Balasarius · August 2, 2016, 7:14am

oooh, I know it! 😁

Pod · August 2, 2016, 7:38am

The idea is to type your guess into the box and press reply ;)

(I guess Urban Chaos)

CraigM · August 2, 2016, 1:24pm

I love this answer, even though I don’t think it is correct.

Also this is he game I was thinking of, at first.

Now? AAaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAaaaaaHHHHaaahHHH (or however its spelled): A reckless Disregard for Gravity?

I have no idea what the title of the game is, but I can picture the box art pretty clearly since the second image. I definitely remember seeing the box, but I don’t think it was a game I ever played.

Left_Empty · August 2, 2016, 3:45pm

If it was a chopper on the box, defintely seen it too. Dang this is irritating.

anymunym · August 2, 2016, 5:10pm

Not Urban Strike, Urban Chaos or AaAaAA!!!:

CraigM · August 2, 2016, 5:12pm

Oh! I know what that is!

Crap… what’s the name…

Strike Commander? I think that’s it.

Balasarius · August 2, 2016, 5:27pm

Since my work blocks qt3 (and all gaming sites), winning and then creating / uploading an image from mobile is a challenge.

CraigM got it. The first vaporware title, in development for many years.

CraigM · August 2, 2016, 5:30pm

I didn’t know that part, just that it was a F-15 or 16, Origin, and I was pretty sure the word was strike ;)

Which, looking at who made it, it being vaporware for years makes sense when you know who made it. Sorry Chris Roberts, your rep is well earned it seems.
