Character(s) Holding Gun On Box Art

Perhaps the most overused cliche in video game cover design. Let's see how far down the rabbit hole goes...

No surprise that most, if not all James Bond games do this, given the tendency for it to appear in the movie posters as well
One of the more egregious cases of this, considering it leaves out deuteragonist Elizabeth just to appeal to the dudebro shooter market...which the game wasn't made for
What a shocker that the most profitable FPS franchise of all time has this cover archetype slapped all over it
Ironic given that the emphasis is on melee combat
The PAL version was way better/less generic
If any series gets a free pass for this, it should be mother trucking DOOOOM
