The cigar-chomping, gun-totin' shooter icon who once towered above the FPS genre looked set for the dustbins of history after developer 3D Realms shut down and laid of its staff due to funding issues. The demise of Duke Nukem Forever didn't raise too many eyebrows. After all, this was a game that had been in development for the better part of 13 years, so the announcement by the game's publisher, Take Two, that it was never going to see the light of day wasn't too hard to believe.

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.

ZycoFox1056d ago

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

-Foxtrot1057d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

ZycoFox1056d 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.

XiNatsuDragnel1057d ago

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