Duke Nukem Forever
 

Finally coming out. That is all.

People are going to be so let down once this comes out.

what will come out first Detox or this?

You clearly are not betting on Duke.

It's only cos 3D fucking Realms finally let the thing go. Fucking useless past Duke Nukem 3D. they did like 1 more game? Shadow Warrior and that was shit.

They did Prey, also.

lol, yeah and that took them at least 5 years from start to finish. WTF is with these guys. Did they even finish that game or did they pass it on... as usual?

fixed

lol

I thought it already did.

Saw this and the first thought in my mind was "I wonder if he get to see Duke's penis".

Really excited for this again. Probably because I was never really into the hype years ago. Would be hilarious if it actually doesn't come out, though. Or if there was a major glitch at launch that prevented the game from being played.

The games looks like it could be fun but I'll wait until I can see a video of actual gameplay that isn't recorded over someone shoulder at PAX.

If Duke was a real guy, I'd be inclined to guess he would have an embarassingly small penis. He's ripped as hell, drives a huge monster truck, has huge guns, smokes cigars and is loud and aggressive. Pretty much everything a guy can do to compensate for having a small penis.

I'd also think he was in denile about his real sexuality. He seems a little too interested in making it clear he's manly and that he likes girls and boobs and sex with girls with boobs. Smoking cigars is a clue given everything else he does. A long, firm penis shaped thing he gets pleasure from sucking on. Cigars on their own are just cigars but with Duke, it seems like it's more than just a cigar.

So, yeah, I think Duke is a gay guy in denile with a small penis. The game might be fun, though.

Oh yes, a lone screenshot of the piss control mechanics.

Fuck... Yes..

I really hope this game delivers.
I hope it doesn't end up being the Guns N Roses of video games.

I like how it says "WEAPON RAISED" when he gets to see the tits.

What is the appeal in taking a piss during a game? Sure, it's probably funny the first couple of times...

It regenerates health too.

Not as good as Postal 2's pissing on people until they puke, but still.

It was superfun for a 10 year old me.

Not Duke Nukem related, in the least, but I like this one:

:rofl:

Me and my dad liked Shadow Warrior...even if it was only a Duke 3D mod.

Lo Wang was awesome :'(

If the game has online multiplayer and we can piss on beaten opponents, I can see it becoming very popular with children and idiots everywhere. It's like a step up from teabagging in Halo.

If they wanted to, they could give it a "useful" purpose. Pissing in an enemies petrol tank to sabotage their vehicles, drowning shrunken enemies in your piss etc. I doubt it, though.

You could piss in 3D, never did anything, won't in DNF.

Yes it did, it gave you health back.

Pretty sure it didn't only remember breaking it and drinking the water giving back your health.

Too lazy to actually check right now but still sire you can.

http://dukenukem.wikia.com/wiki/Health

Hm, must not of ever been low on health when I used it. Seriously didn't know, and I played the hell out of that game back in the day.

"Whooo wants some Wang?"

I was 12 when this game was announced. More than doubled the amount of years I lived since then and it still isn't out.

I do not understand why so many people are talking about this so much.

It's pretty obvious that by today's standards of call of duties, and halos, that it is going to be competent at best. Like, I'm not saying it's going to suck outright, but fuck, I just don't get the hype. And I played the shit out of the original when I was younger.

You haven't been betting on Duke, that's why.

This game has taken over 12 years to make, I've had a pre order for almost 7 years. Duke Nukem Forever coming out will be the end of an era.

You just don't get "it."

I don't like Duke as a character but DN3D was quite good.
I think DNF has a couple of things over CoD/Halo. Firstly, the game isn't taking itself seriously like Halo and CoD. Those games act like they are "serious business" but DNF knows games are about fun first and foremost and seems like it will give us that in spades in it's own stupid way.
DNF also has character, something neither CoD or Halo seem to have at all. One is a generic army FPS the other is a generic Sci-Fi FPS.
DNF may not be revolutionary or a 5 star game but it looks much more interesting to play through than Halo and CoD ever did to me.

Although it's most probably something to do with everyone wanting to see if the 12 year development can give us anything other than a subpar game.

I played CoD 4 clanned, and I had WaW and MW2. I have to admit, they're not that good tbh. I agree that DNF will probably be shit, but please don't compare to COD series. I know that will get flamed cos there's too many fan boi's on COD and I'm not actually saying it's totally shit, but there's better out there. I point to BF2. I think the BF series is great, it even took me time to get into 2142 but I love that, I'm not the biggest fan of BC2, but it still shits on COD. Still amazes me how BF2, 5 years after release, for what it does and even what it looks like, still owns pretty much everything.

I'm gonna have to put this one in the "Believe it when I see it" file.

No self regenerating health. Picking up medi-packs :heart: and a sense of humor :heart:

For me, this will likely be much more enjoyable than Halo or COD, much in the same way I prefer Serious Sam HD to Halo Reach and MW2.

Don't see why people are saying the game will be shit. Read the reviews of the guys that played the demo, they're saying quite the opposite.

Not entirely. I think a lot of people are blinded by HOLY FUCK DNF IS PLAYABLE to see the flaws, but they're there. Shacknews said they had a blast with it, but:

They better not go to that lame "only hold 2 guns" rubbish...

It does have regen health, dissapointing in that respect. :(

Also you can only carry 2 weapons at a time, apparently that was designed with controllers in mind, George Broussard said they went through a few designs for the controllers to have the old weapons system of duke 3d and it just wasn't comfortable, so its carried over to the pc version as well.

So it's a generic FPS with outdated technology and a few laughs.

Screw this. Considering how much Perfect Dark and Duke 3D I've played since they hit XBLA, I was really looking forward to a new classic FPS.

After looking around the forums people seem split on the issue, some are saying its regenerating health, others are saying it uses the ego system from "duke nukem manhattan project" and that health or ego only regens if you kill enemies, save girls etc. So hopefully the latter and not the standard bullshit of "hide behind wall for 5 seccs to receive full health".

Regen system is something i really fucking loathe :mad:

As for the tech, its using unreal engine 2.5 but supposodly totally modified by 3d realms so its essentially a totally custom engine that keeps up with newer engines.

2k and Gearbox giving away early access to the Duke Nukem demo with the purchase of Borderlands GOTY edition for Xbox 360, PS3, or PC. PC version is $10 less than the other versions.

Its the same demo that was shown in Europe and shown on Youtube afterward.

guy up on stage sounds like a total douche

Jesus. Just wait Jack Thompson gets a hold of this. Fucking hate when kids get hold of 18 games then we get rage for games that as adults we should be allowed to play and own. Fucking cocks.

glad they spent 12 years perfecting virtual white board technology.

I kid, it looks pretty good.

Hmmm, kinda pissed they kinda reused the ending of DN3d for a level.

Looks good.

That's an odd thing to be upset over. Referencing an earlier game?

It's supposed to be a new game, not a remake. Seems lazy after 12 years, they are basically showing the end of the N64 version of Duke3D with pretty graphics for their demo. Not saying I won't get the game or enjoy it.

I believe they've said in interviews it was just meant to show off the engine. It's a demo, and hits the nostalgia factor just the way they want it to. I wouldn't get upset over it, as it shouldn't be in the final product.

Oh right, one scene is a remake now.

You must have been really upset when they showed Duke using the Devastators.

:roll: Weapons are fine, I don't want to do a level I did 12-13 years ago...

But it isn't a whole level, it's the end of the level. The rest of it is new.

You should be upset about weapons, they're clearly clinging to the past.

lol, god forbid they have 10 mins or so of old content as a refresher after 784838362 years from the previous game.

I had duke nukem 3D on pc...it was good for the time...even though the nipples on the strippers' boobs were severely pixelated.

Heard it might get rated AO and have to be delayed again.

lol

just for the sake of the lulz i really hope this somehow doesn't come out

"I'm looking for some alien toilet to park my bricks. Who's first?"

May 3rd release date for the US.

I reckon Gearbox will announce a dealy before then and only delay it until May 4th for a laugh.

Fast forward to May 3rd

"WE WAITED 12 YEARS FOR THIS SHIT?"

Looks like fun, actually. Idiotic, mindless fun but fun none the less.

I likely wont get it for launch but I think I'll pick it up not too long after.

pretty much. anything with this much hype won't live up to it. it's impossible. shit has been set was too high for it

Hey, remember Daikatana?

Look it up. Like the biggest flop in the history of FPS games.

lol daikatana

A lot of people on YouTube and Gametrailers are saying the graphics look terrible. Am I watching the wrong video or something? Graphics look good to me so I've no idea what is wrong with those people. The only conclusion I have is that they are really sucky trolls.

Not that graphics matter as much as some people seem to act as if they do.

They look alright, nothing special but that doesn't concern me.

At least the trailer kind of lays to waste my concerns about regenerating health and 2 weapon carrying. It's still going to be balls-to-the-wall hectic.

Yeah, it's just some people are acting like it has bad PS1 graphics or something.

Looking at the end of the trailer, I'll be surprised if they didn't sell a 360 pad like Dukes either seperatley or as part of a Limited Edition style package.

In another interview, the same guy claims the game would be about 16 hours long. That's apparantly 3 to 4 times longer than a CoD game.

Someone on another forum posted an articile from OXM with some Multiplayer screens and info. I've not read the full article yet but here it is anyway.

I'm sure it can hold it's own in a world where every FPS game involves playing as a cookie cutter All-American-Soldier and shooting anyone with a tan or funny accent.

And thank fuck for that. I hate the "standard".

:|

This is going to be such a sick game :yes:

I forgot to update the Balls of Steel post with a UK price but the UK price is £75.

Oh no, a game that doesn't play like a current gen shooter.

Oh, right, that's a good thing.

Oh boy, I got a serious Duke crush going on here now.

LOL innovation? Call of Duty and Halo are about as linear as it gets.. Cod especially where in the sp campaign enemies will continually respawn untill you hit an invisible trigger.

The official theme for DNF.

I was laughing at the possibility of the nuclear crap happening in Japan causing the game to be delayed because of the "nukem" part and the extensive use of the radioactive symbol.

Doubt it would happen but it would be hillarious if it did.
