    very stylish, though the dialogue and everything else is on par with what you expect of a wow raid dungeon.

    I had enough. Just un-installed it. Terrible game. I agree with everything in that destructoid review.

    The repeated vertical (wood?) texture in the ceiling doesn't make much sense/look very good.

    I think the change in atmosphere from previous Duke games makes sense when you realize that the people who are making Duke Nukem Forever and the people who are buying Duke Nukem forever are the same exact people who bought and played the first games, almost a decade and a half later. DNF is quite literally a mid-life crisis.It's been fourteen years since the last time Duke did anything. He can't run as fast or as far as he used to. He can't carry as many guns as he used to. He can't take a bullet as well as he used to. The frat-boy sensibility about women from the previous games has darkened to a sense of fear and no small resentment (the pregnancy motif in the Alien level is important here- regretting having children, Duke?) The game's willingness to make fun of its protagonist even as it supports him is completely gone, because its desperate clawing after virility cannot tolerate that.

    For a game sold as a comedy, it takes the fight to preserve the masculinity and youth of its main character incredibly seriously, not realizing that the fight is already lost. When a vehicle breaks down on Duke Nukem, he responds "Aw, and it got such good gas mileage." That is not a thing Schwarzenegger or Van Damme or Bruce Campbell would say in the films Duke Nukem is supposed to be parodying. That is a thing your dad says when the Volvo is beyond repair.

    Duke Nukem Forever is a game about an aging sexually insecure man, made by an aging sexually insecure man, sold to an audience of aging sexually insecure men, which perfectly captures their anxieties. Duke Nukem Forever is art.

    Haha.

    God I hate those flash websites. Looking forward to the game, though! Been too many disappointments this year. Don't need another.

    Que? I died alot, it felt like the character was much weaker than in Bioshock1. Also, the hurt-noises when you got hit were crazy annoying, as well as the water-splash sound which came when you walked under a water-source.

    Not my fault that you suck lol!

    I just played it for about an hour. Pretty bad if I'm honest. Everything feels so horrible forced. There's nothing duke about it I feel like I'm in some kind of poor man's tribute.

    id Software confirmed last year that it would no longer be licensing its internally-developed game engines to other companies outside of parent company ZeniMax Media, including its new id Tech 5 engine.

    I didn't know this. That sucks.
