I'm not so much against corperate art in general as I am against Gigabytes version of it.

For years they seemed convinced making their mobos and box arts look like you were buying a mech component would make it sell.

Of course, I may not have minded as much had they not actually translated the mech theme right down to their fairly blocky and ineffective heatsinks. At least latest gen is better there.

I think the most iconic box art has to be yesteryear's GPU box art. I wasn't into it, but now I miss it.
