This image is cover art for a copyrighted computer or video game, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the game's publisher or developer. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution images of game cover art solely to illustrate the packaging of the game in question qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law, as such display does not significantly impede the right of the copyright holder to sell the copyrighted material, is not being used to turn a profit in this context, and presents ideas that cannot be exhibited otherwise. See Copyrights and fair use rationale. |
