By that logic, the game producers should put the screenshots, game
descriptions, system requirements, reviews, etc on the front as well, or
conversely, the stores should stock the games with the back facing out. In
fact, stores should stock pretty much *every* item they carry with the
backside facing out according to that logic.
There's a reason why most product boxes have not much more than the name
and a picute. Too much information on the front of the box is not a good
thing, from a marketing angle.
