has anyone here bought it yet, i kinda doubt it will make those sales

It may off of pre-orders and all the media hype alone. which just goes to show a lot of sales have more to do with marketing and media hype than it has to do with quality.

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

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.

"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.

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

-Foxtrot618d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan617d 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.

XiNatsuDragnel618d ago

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