From ShockblastMedia.com: "I’ve never been a huge fan of the Duke Nukem franchise, but certainly not because it is a bad game. To be honest, I’ve just never really taken the time to sit down and play it. Borderlands, on the other hand, just so happens to be one of my favorite games of all time, and being the collector that I am, I jumped on a recent Amazon.com deal to snag a copy of the Game of the Year Edition ridiculously cheap. Packed in with the GOTY Edition of Borderlands was a code to access the Duke Nukem Forever demo… if and whenever that ever saw the light of day. Well folks, that day has arrived and this morning upon logging into the access page, I was pretty excited to see my download code sitting waiting for me."
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.

homo...The Duke is gonna rip your head off!!!
Looks ok, not great but ok. The person playing in that demo was quite poor at aiming, did more missing than hitting.
It seems like if it was released years ago, like it should have it would have been great. But coming out now, its nothing special.
It does look like lots of fun though and thats what really matters I suppose.
The Duke! F*ck yeah!
I played the demo and the videos and pictures shown give no justice to how good the graphics are in the game with max settings 1080P on PC.
