Duke Nukem Forever Multiplayer Exchanges Flags for "Babes"
- Thread starter Tom Goldman

My inner child giggled with glee at the prospects of this game, while my older more refined sense of humour thinks... aww who am I kidding, a shooter that shamelessly throws all pretense of realism and seriousness out the window? YES PLEASE.
To those who find offense to this game, I have to say, I respect your opinion and agree that sexism and the objectifying of women and we -should- fight it on every front. However, I think the positive reception of this game's premise comes more from the fact that people are sick and tired of playing the same shooter set in the same dirty brown middle-eastern country, starring the same steroided out flag-waving patriots, with the same story that's thinner than a saucer of water but tries to pretend it's the next Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers. Which, on that note, a shooter that actually took the time to tell its story as a progessing epic like Band of Brothers rather than the pathetic 3-4 hours that seem to be given to shooters would probably be really fun to play, regardless of setting.
But I digress, what I am saying is, that people are sick of these games, and so the idea that someone is -finally- making something different has become rather appealing, regardless of the content or how offensive it is. I see it as being locked in a room for three years with a TV that only played war movies, over, and over, and over again. then, after three years, Twilight came on. You would probably think it was pretty good simply because it was different.

Capture the babe is actually already been done in the warriors, an instead of a reassuring slap its a sucker punch to keep her quiet, so this can't be that much worse.
Yeah, but sometimes, immature jokes is what you need, you know? It´s like when you get a craving for something you usually hate.Hardcore_gamer said:
I don't see what the big deal about the whole slapping thing. If you've ever seen Achievement Hunter Weekly Update, then you'll know that slaps can be extremely comical.
HAHA! I really hope the world is ready for this. While I think the developers mean it all as a joke, and the gamers should too, there WILL be someone screaming "Won't someone PLEASE think of the children!"
Agreed here, I have a coloured friend who makes more coloured jokes than anyone I know. No-one is above a joke made by someone else, and if everyone can both give and take a joke, then no-one gets hurt and everyone gets a laugh.JWAN said:
Yes, this is going a bit far, but I have seen worse... And the first 10 or so spanks will be hilarious I'm sure.
When did people become such prudes lol. Sounds like some good completely non serious fun. Its a duke nukem game for god sakes. I'd buy it if my video game money wasn't already going to something else that month. Perhaps a little more down the line I'll pick it up. The game starts off with two girls going down on duke and the whole strip club thing, but the slap on the butt is the real offensive part hahahaha. I really don't get people sometimes.
For once theirs not an ultra serious fps about brown haired space marines swinging their genitals around to prove who's more of a man. ENJOY IT.

I lol'd at Morningwood. Subtlety is definitely not Duke's specialty. This game is intriguing me more and more.
I dunno, looking an the entire game and every way any of it could be taken wrongly or be offensive... well, that might even be too easy for Fox News to cover...Puzzlenaut said:
This is awesome beyond belief.
I hoped this game would turn out to be over the top in this fashion.
So far it hasn't let me down!
Go Duke!

Can't expect less from the man that told an alien boss "I'll rip off your head and shit down your throat" and then is seen doing exactly that in a 3D rendered cut scene 
Do you think those girls he is slapping in the ass are the same ones that are giving him a Bee Jay during the teaser?

Just in case this hasn't been posted yet, should calm a few people down. Myself included, I didn't think they were that dumb and happily proved me right.
