Help Ignition USA choose the box art for King of Fighters XII

Ignition USA has opened up a poll over on their official forums to help decide on the box art for the Playstation 3 release of the game. While they did go ahead and break it down to two fairly typical choices (Iori and Kyo), both options are pretty eye-catching and likely to make a good choice on store shelves come July. Unfortunately for all US Ash Crimson supporters, root makes the comment that there was just too much backlash at putting Ash on the cover this year. Maybe another time?

Both cover options are below... Remember when you vote, the right choice is Iori.


Update - It seems that Ignition USA also posted a thread for choosing the Xbox 360 box art for King of Fighters XII. For the two choices (both also featuring Iori and Kyo), head over to Ignition USA's official forums. The two pieces use the same shots, but cropped in a different manner. Out of the two sets of pieces, it looks like Xbox 360 owners get the benefit of the better covers - but I still wouldn't be opposed to Iori gracing the cover of the PS3 version.

If you haven't had a chance to check out the forum links yet, some fans of the game have taken it upon themselves to also post some 'suggested' covers based on official King of Fighters XII artwork. There's definitely a vocal group out there that are opposed to the currently suggested shots...
