Black Ops II Box Art looks like Oni Box Art

Not a worthy of a Did You Know, but just something I find strangely funny.

I just happened to randomly put my copy of Oni next to the new Black Ops II box, and noticed a strange similarity:



I'm not sure if it's an homage or a strange coincidence, but I just thought it was interesting and wanted to share it with everyone.

Having a characters arms in a certain position doesn't really seem like a homage.

Artistic ideas being similar is really common in cover art, posters and so on. For instance:

I think it's mainly because designers need to get a person's attention, and end up using the same, familiar layouts. Good spot though.

You know if we're going to link random things together.

Did you Know In Austin Powers, the Power's family is a homage to Metal Gear?

It's true my dad works for Konami.
