PAX 2010: Hands On Duke Nukem Forever

[OceanRunner]

Some how I know it's not gonna be worth 12 years.

I really don't care myself. Though I wonder if Yahtzee will review it. On the other hand it probably isn't worth his time.

 

[WINDOWCLEAN2]

Mind = Blown.

I'm still a little bit cynical here, but in the Hands of Gearbox it should be at least be playable.

 

[Reaper69lol]

About Damn time, cant believe its actually coming out, I think I was what, 6 when it was announced.

Is ANYTHING worth 12 years?

No.

But I'm glad to hear that it's still a damn good time.

School certainly is.

Is any game/movie worth 12 years?

The sky hasn't fallen...

yet.

My bet is that Randy Pitchford is a hypnotist. You played no game.

 

[Hayate_GT]

i read it but i'm still in doubt that it's actually true...

Wasn't that the boss from the first game?

After dodging alien fire and sidestepping the corpses of soldiers who weren't lucky enough to be blessed with Duke's innate awesomeness, it was time to fight the Cycloid, a huge, one-eyed monster looming on a football field. The fight itself was pretty standard - grab big gun, circle strafe, reload, repeat as needed - but I polished the Cycloid off by shooting it in the ass (ok, you didn't have to do it that way, but come on, it's Duke Nukem), then kicking its eyeball through the goalposts on a football field.

...That sounds AWFULLY familiar...Wasn't that one of the set-pieces from the original game?

edit: indeed

Well there goes all the "never going to be released" jokes.

Ah well there's always Diablo 3. I'd go with Episode 3 like everyone else but 3 years of development time so far hardly justifies it.

But Episode Three ISN'T EVEN A COMPLETE GAME.

True, true, but neither was Starcraft 2. Well thats what the hardcore Starcraft fans say anyway.

That's what the retarded Starcraft 2 players say.

OT: UNEXPECTED. This will be either amazing or the mediocrest of mediocre. NO COMPROMISE

 

[Zing]

Always bet on Duke!

Clean up on aisle 4.

 

[whaleswiththumbs]

Whoa, did you guys just feel that. Hell just froze over.

 

[Trogdor1138]

I can't wait to get this, I haven't bought a game full priced at launch since Metal Gear Solid 3... I think that will be broken when it hits shelves.

 

[Doug]

Sir, when my eyes do lie upon a copy of this title in a shop window, then and only then will I give merit to your fanciful assertions! Good day! No, seriously, I will order a parade to march the streets if Duke Nuken Forever does come out, but like so, so many others, I will remain sceptical about it's chances.

Actually, I suspect the emotions going through everyone's heads will be along the lines of "It took them 12 years to do this?"

But hey, I was never a Duke Nuke'm fan in the first place, and am abit cynical.

 

[Grahav]

I hope Yahtzee's review is right.

It would make him the Videogame Prophet.

 

[darthotaku]

I can see yahtzee's review now "go and watch the other duke nukem forever video... now completely reverse that, this game is a complete generic knock off..." and with those words "people who play games" will die a little inside.

 

[Boba Frag]

Interesting.... I hope this isn't some horrible cocktease!

If it's real- then it's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum.

And I'm all outta gum.
