Velocity Gamer writes: "It's time to stop pissin' around and get this big guy back into action," says Duke at the beginning of the epic flop that was Duke Nukem Forever. I couldn't agree more. I managed to have some good fun with DNF, and it really wasn't all that bad but it wasn't at all what was expected or wanted from the return of this series either. Now Gearbox is talking more Duke, and I've got some input.
Multiple future Gearbox Software projects, including Borderlands 4 and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands 2 have been spotted.
Hopefully, they fired the entire writing team after B3 cause that dialogue was truly atrocious.
doubtful... this is gearbox we're talking about.. Randy thinks everything the studio does is gold because he has a bad concept of reality
FFS make something else. If you can't make anything new, at least bring back Brothers In Arms or something.
I know it will never happen (for obvious story reasons that's happened) but I wish we could play the original Vault hunters again with new abilities you could choose to develop in a skill branch. Never really felt I could get behind most of them after the first game, especially move wise. Lilith's phase walk will always be the best to me.
Speaking of Lilith, I'm kind of wondering how they'll get around the whole Siren thing since they wrote themselves into a corner saying there's "only 6 Sirens in the entire universe" and now thanks to Borderlines 3 they apparently pass on their abilities meaning once we see each of 6 powers available that's it, no new brand new ones. I don't know why they don't just say there's more than 6 since all of them in the ENTIRE Universe just conveniently coming to Pandora is a bit strange.
That's super easy to get around. Each person that has the skill could have their own personal spin on it. There could be a new power that morphs them into something else. One of the weapon manufacturers could experiment on 5 of the Sirens and the 6th would have to fight a horde of siren powered bad guys to rescue the others. Fiction has been there and done that with power more complex or simple thousands of times before.
As for revisting the first game? That would be totally unlike the gaming industry to reboot a series...
Good news for Gearbox and Pinball Fans. Zen Studios today announced a partnership with fellow Embracer Group developer Gearbox Software to bring classic game series to life in pinball form with Gearbox® Pinball. This three-pack of digital tables is set for release when Zen’s new Pinball FX platform hits PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series x/s.
Duke Nukem Forever originally began its life as a sidescroller instead of a shooter back in 1996, and that canceled version has just been leaked.
Very cool, but i don't know how real this is... I'll check it out later to find out.
It was not really a flop as the developers made money on it. Yes it did not meet many peoples hopes, but I thought it was a fun retro shooter. They have DLC coming and have a new game in the works which is said to be a prequel.
Man if I was part of the team that worked on this crap, I'd actually leave it out of my resume and lie if I was asked. Its embarrassingly bad.
They can hope and try to sell a bad game at $60 but the market sets the real value. Already I'm seeing $40 new and $35 used. This game just came out.
If this game makes it on any list, it'll be on "Top Worst Games of 2011" or "Top Disappointments of All Time Ever in the History of Video Games, Like Ever Ever"
The underwear knomes southpark refernce in the beggining had me cracking up but after that i forced myself through the game. I have to admit i was happy when the game was over
If it wasn't clear I'm sorry, I meant that it was a flop with fans and critics.
Why would anyone want to save Duke Nukem? The franchise was never anything more than shallow garbage built to appeal solely to 12 year old boys (with crap for taste).
