Please bear in mind that, with a few exceptions, we're not actually making any judgments about the games themselves - just their awful, awful boxes.
20. Twin Strike: Operation Thunder (Wii, released Oct. 28)
As much as we feel that “YEAAAH! HELICOPTERS! SHOOTIN’ MISSILES AT THE GROUND! BOOM! ENH-ENH-ENH-ENH-ENH-ENH! NYEEEEOOOWRM! BSSSHHHHHH!” is a powerful and time-honored theme, we can’t help but feel that this would look better if it were drawn on lined notebook paper.
19. Silent Hill: Homecoming (PS3/360/PC, released Sept. 30)
We’ve seen some disastrous Homecoming dates in our time, but this dismal little scene might top them all.
18. Petz Rescue: Ocean Patrol (DS, released Oct. 28)
Jesus Christ. Assuming the point of the game is to rescue marine animals from that guy’s rampaging dick, then kudos to you, box. You’ve done your job admirably.
17. Petz Dogz Fashion (DS, released June 17)
It’s always been our position that a dog wearing sunglasses is automatically awesome, but then Petz had to go and tart up some dopey animals for the benefit of cooing airheads and we were proven wrong.
16. Shepherd’s Crossing (PS2, released Aug. 19)
Um…

You already want to Photoshop something into that hand, don’t you? Yeah, you know you do. That’s why we went ahead and did it for you:

Classy!
