Duke Nukem Forever finally nearing the end

Duke Nukem Forever promised so much back when it was first announced that it was going to redefine the first-person genre just as the original had.

Let's face it, Duke is a cool guy with cool gadgets and big guns. What isn't there to like about him?

I don't really care anymore. It's been in development now for nearly 10 years, probably even more, so graphicaly is can't be up to scratch, plus gameplay wise it will be poor compared to Crysis, Bioshock, Halo, Call or Duty etc.

I hold no hope for this whatsoever!

Even when the other Duke Nukem games were out, I never liked them as much as Quake, Unreal, etc., but at that time FPS games were fairly few and far between. In today's saturated FPS market, can it compete with F.E.A.R., Far Cry, Half Life 2? Very doubtful, but we shall see. It has been in development for seven years, after all....

I use to be a fan of this franchise but I got over it, I've been playing Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Halo and Halo 2 for the last 8 years!

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.

-Foxtrot419d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan419d 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.

XiNatsuDragnel419d ago

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