Summary

[edit]

Cover art of Need for Speed II (U.S., PC version), featuring a Ferrari F50, and featuring the marques of other exotic cars featured in the game (red bar at bottom). It's interesting to note that the game's logo design would be reused and refined in Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit, Need for Speed: High Stakes (as a stylized "S" or "5") and Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed.

Image obtained from MobyGames's entry of the game[1] (originally uploaded by MobyGames user MAT), cropped off the "CD-ROM classics" tag at the bottom,[2] and resized (640x736 pixels to 300x345).


^ The author believes that the removal of the "CD-ROM classics" tag does not affect the presentation of the cover art, as older versions of the cover art are virtually the same as this edited version (Compare with the following: [3] [4] [5] [6]).

The author asserts the image qualifies for fair use for the following reasons:

  1. EA Games and its affiliates have not released cover arts into public domain.
  2. The image is needed to illustrate a mandatory computer and video games' cover art and improve the quality of the articles in question, per Wikipedia:Article development. Commentary has been provided in the image's summary section.
  3. The image is not intended to hinder the copyright holders' ability to market and sell its games.
  4. This image is deemed sufficiently small and below the maximum size of "web-resolution" images.
  5. This image is to be used for non-commercial purposes only.
