Photographers try to capture these terrible scenes so they can show us the real face of war. The result is a collection of touching and heartbreaking photos from the dark side of war.

And with the shift to buying more and more games online, publishers are adding value to their games via its packaging. That’s why almost every game now gets a special or limited edition when it comes out. What I personally like the most is a game’s boxart. The boxart of a game should reflect its identity. So why not have boxart made by the people who know a game’s identity the best. Below I give you a collection of the best boxarts created by gamers themselves. They all tried to capture the essence of the game in its boxart and besides that, they all look pretty cool if you ask me.]]> http://theroxor.com/2010/11/05/beautiful-fan-made-boxart/feed/ 2
