VGW: Yes, it’s true: Duke Nukem Forever finally has a release date. Now we can rush right out to purchase what appears to be …a generic…shooter…thing. I know what you’re saying: “Ain’t no way I’m payin’ $59.99 for this!” Well, you’re wrong. You might not pay $60 for it, but you’re going to play it. I don’t care if every game reviewer from here to Illium gives it a resounding ‘F’ you’re going to play it. Here's why.
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.
Duke Nukem Forever, the troubled FPS from Gearbox and 3D Realms, has been restored to more traditional 90s shooter thanks to a sweeping “remaster” mod
kinda of a misleading title.
Mod features:
Sprinting removed and faster player movement
Jump height increased
Swim speed is much faster
Player can now hold breath underwater for 45 seconds instead of 15
Weapon rebalance and screen shake when shooting removed
2/4 weapon limit completelly removed
Quicksaves (F5 by default)
Depth of Field removed and new post processing effects
Driving sections are now in first person perspective
yw.
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.
It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well
Duke Nukem Forever, the infamous and controversial FPS from 3D Realms, apparently looked much better before launch, as modders discover various cut features
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.
Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.
God, I can't wait for this game...
Holy shit, that image gave me a serious case of nostalgia. I remember seeing it on an Official Playstation Magazine cover back in the 90s. :O
Haha.. I remember playing the game on the N64, and beating it co-op with my brother. Memories...
However, I'm not even going to look at this game unless it's getting 9s and above, and not ironically.
Will there be a titty bar and pole dancers?
I don't even care if the gameplay is any good or not, I just wanna laugh my ass off! Not enough funny games these days.
