Met recently the european editions of these games and... wow.. the art, at least the cover's , are really cool, definitely more cool than the original amercian counterpart.

And I think they (europeans) got a more serious tone in their art, that I like. While original americans got a more catoony tone, thats present most of the time, even if only in spirit. See for yourself...

By the way, the Unknown Armies line is the same case:

Ravensmuse is actually totally correct (people with "raven" in their name are by default). I was thinking about "Attitude" in the CP2020 sense of the word at that moment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

However, in order to NOT break with the general look and feel with the other SR covers, I would never go to any kind of "candy" look.

So, for Attitude, imagine this one without the guns or that one with a rich corp kid instead (and his ultrasport AV) or that one without the tank, the ruins and the explosives (just kidding).
