Gaming Nexus: Duke Nukem Forever Review

Gaming Nexus writes "Duke Nukem Forever is an ugly game. From the outdated graphics to the disgusting level design to the deplorable content, every inch of this game makes me feel dirty and gross."

Oh, shut up. It's a fun game. Get over yourself.

Mr_Lu_Kim4677d ago

I went a purchased the old DN3D from GoG just to compare as my memory from the PS1 days are a little blurry.

I tell you what the old Duke offers up so much more fun and gameplay elements for something that is over 15 years old.

I even loved Duke Nukem Time To Kill and Planet of The Babes, as well of the older ones but heck.

Sure I am having some fun with Forever. But not enough to warrant the sticker price that's for sure. I was hoping for a re-birth if you will not regurgitation, you could hardly even call this game a DN3D re-heat.

I liked hunting for secrets that where a secret and hard to find. I liked big sprawling environments that where semi non-linear. I like managing my health and armor (who F-ing idea was recharge health?), I liked turning it up to the harder settings and getting bigger badder enemies that where stronger and more aggressive and made the game worth replaying.

Forever lacked everything that made duke games great IMO and I don't like it. It earns its shitty scores and deserves it.

but an F? the game works from start to finish thats worth something. the game isnt broken like other games that dont work like rougue warrior. DNF is playable from a technical standpoint

I'm with newn4gguy. Love this game!

Oh dear, another game review mixed with a Fox News rant. If this nonsense is going to offend you, then they should have gotten someone else to review it.

I played the demo and it left me saying to my self... Why in the hell did I down load a last gen game? It's not a game I would recommend to another gamer.

HebrewHammer4677d ago

I'm playing through with 150% Big Head Mode... Ah, the nostalgia!

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

Snookies12574d ago

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g574d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

Number1TailzFan616d ago

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot616d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan616d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel616d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
