    This game had better be good after all of this bollox.

    Its firmly embedded in nerd lore now and has an unshakeable cult status

    which means..

    the game could be utter tripe and still sell... the developers might just be starting to cop onto this fact now..

    Still boggles my mind why they haven't made a Chuck Norris film, you could make it on a budget of 8 quid and billions of nerds would go see it regardless.

    I'd say the majority of gamers that were waiting for this all those years ago have grown up, got married, have children and have no time for playing games anymore.

    I know I have.

    Out of all video game characters to reappear in sequels, Duke has aged the worst imho.

    Important Gameplay Mechanic #1: Drawing on Whiteboard.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    From what I gathered from the gameplay it seems to be pretty much the same game of the footage we that was realeased months ago.

    The Stadium and Canyon levels are there along with the guns. All I could make out was that the graphics had been tuned up since this video:

    I won't be convinced until that game is finished, pressed onto DVDs/Blu-Rays and is shipping!

    So, odds on the apocalypse happening a day or two before this is released?

    Excellent, can't wait to get my hands on this :D

    I watched an interesting round-table discussion on the subject. They talked about how the Duke Nukem universe will translate to the present era of gaming and if it's now antiquated.

    best thing going for it is that Gearbox are involved.


    While their own work has been love it or hate it (brothers in arms, borderlands have as many people that love them as they hate them.)


    They have had their fingers in other franchises that have been very well recieved.

    Opposing fronts is one of the best add on packs of all time and valve still got bugged with people asking if shepherd will show up in half life 2 ever.

    They also did the pc version of Halo which was a damn fine version and a great multiplayer game in its own right.

    Jesus.. I was 5 when development started on this!!! :eek::eek:

    Wonder if it'll be another Too Human?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭DOC09UNAM

    Gearbox have a great track record of finishing big projects on time so hopefully there will be no development hell.
