I'm offended that he forgot the best part of the game where you defeat Hitler by picking your nose & scowling during the most important parts of his speeches.

That was brilliant - great way to still entertain us during a slow reviewing period. One of the classics, for sure.

And I dunno about you guys, but I never cared about DNF - I couldn't care less if it's never released. I never played the original...

I hear that they're going to release it in a box set with the new Battletoads. Pre-orders get a free Wii strap.
Battletoads is already out though. I'm enjoying the free Wii strap I got with it.

I don't think I'll be able to afford DNF, 14 DVDs sounds very very expensive. Must be worth the wait at least.

Ahh, the old Duke. Didn't offer much beyond the more atmospheric Doom from where I was standing but still, it was fun seeing people teetering on the edge of insanity and despair - and after a while, admittedly (elapsing time is a remarkable thing), you start giving up on your criticism and sarcasm and whatnot, you drop the defenses and actually start rooting for 3D Realms to get it finally done.

Is probably the reason why even Yahtzee succumbed and mused and jollied about what could have been. Oops, sorry, why even Yahtzee succumbed and lauded the greatest game ever produced by mankind, showering it with the highest accolades and praise at his disposal. There's no escape from the Duke. When it's done.

Man, people are stupid.

This review was satire. It's trying to show that Duke Nukem would have to solve world hunger, bring about world peace, and give out free peanut M&Ms to make up for the long wait time. Also, if they didn't use those ten years making THE. BEST. GAME. EVER. then people going to call bullshit on them.

Positive Yahtzee scares me. Even if the positivity is faker an a emo kid.

For the first 20 seconds or so, I was like "What!? They finally released it!? And it's good?!"

And then reality punched me in the face.

I have to say this was a master stroke from Yahtzee, and I find I agree with him about the level of hype this game has received.

Fantastic. Sir, my hat is off to you. One very sharp, satirical nail in the coffin for this absolutely epic, defining piece of vapourware.

From the stories, they'd complete tiny pieces and then the management would just repeatedly dump the pieces in the bin. I can't believe they got away with it for so long, but part of me always hoped there'd be something to show for it, even if it was quite obviously going to make Daikatana look good.

Awesome satire!

Also, didn't the development team go bankrupt? How can they still develop a game when they have no money and no workers? o_o

Sorry, but is the game really out or is it just a joke? I know, that this could be a really stupid question but I really want to believe that it is out, but give me just the truth.
No, it is not out.
And yes, that was a stupid question.

Hey, you asked for the truth.
