What do these reviews?


You read that right, Internet friend: 14 years. As long these sites have emerged a man on the Moon realms development, such as Britney Spears career, and in a 14-year framework itself, as the time set by Kennedy's speech to actually "Man on the Moon" to speak only what has been done in the time-frame since the launch of 3D. And after numerous "vaporware of the year" award and current industry jokes - my favorite DNF stands for "did need finish"-we have on our hands a final product people. Duke Nukem Forever has been released. And damn, if it is not looking, as it started years ago.

For the totally uninitiated, even after a decade-plus, here's the overview: Duke is gone into retirement after he that alien took Pigcops and flying bastards in Duke Nukem 3D. At this time, he is apparently * Deeeeep breath * climbed Everest, steps Duke Burger, a number of hotels in Las Vegas, won boxing, which seems taken over to a few Oscars, started a strip club, TV channels and two "hot" twins, with him in his penthouse/Bachelor Pad remain convinced has.


The aliens have not, but disappeared; Their mothership is mouse right within the Duke friendly band, ready. It's almost as if issued in the years of development in the Duke case... and out of his pocket in his establishment went every dollar. Oh, and steroids. He's done - and continue to do - tons of steroids. It is a bit like Charlie Sheen , with a better public Image… and larger guns.

So, perhaps ask yourself, are like awesomely awesome and badass sees it? It must be so amazingly sharp as something that we ever before, isn't it seen? Well... No. It looks about as sharp received as could doom 3 engine, but if they started on the design, that tech was already obsolete. Pixilated images are all over the place, which makes me wonder if this is due to an original Xbox… Hell, I could run a PS2 full speed. There is a reason why the advertising a little out of focus, regardless of the TV and the quality of the stream look.

What about play it? Certainly it must handle even after so long! That at least well is one of the available you are like me and enjoyed much Quake III Arena back in the day. Run-and-gun is all here, and the controls are tight enough to make it work, but if behind cover very often - duck can be out maneuvered by strafing left and right - without the need for each enemy, no strategy is required. There are not too many different weapons to pick up along the way, so that if they will be for an a variety of ways, some foreign pig barbecue, you be disappointed.


There are table and air hockey, bench pressing, hundreds and hundreds of pounds some interesting interaction with the environment of Duke Nukem, the life/ego-meter to build all. Hell, suggested to some foreign wall breasts (yup, breasts on the walls, I leave you to enjoy this picture a little longer) and about funny what obvious Master Chief armor the trick is to ("power armor is for pussies!") works once in a while.

The multiplayer is in the same kind of boat: old and dense. If you remember, Quake III Arenayou probably play, sinking tons of hours running only to a small card blowing up your friends with large, brightly colored missile launchers, not about care, where or how you that damn thing to destinations. Now, if you are in this type of game, you are lucky! The cards with better detail could be bigger, but it is only still a few people shoot wild and for the best hope. It is a random fun; I have to give the. Say, what about the "history" of DNF, but at least the vault this kind of madness was amusing. Not for hours long at the end, as it earlier, but a charm there.

Is it outdated? Let me call this little tidbit on to explain: the opening scene is the final battle of Duke Nukem 3D. At the end of the it Duke starts the villain is eye like a soccer ball through the posts, and everything is in order. As the screen moves, it is hinted that Duke is played not only in fact this scene in a video game (which is pretty cool), but... * cough * me * cough *... and a girls (there are two) asks if the game is any good. Duke responds with a charming "fuckin' well, after twelve years ', it should be." There are two things wrong with this statement: first of all the game is not the good overall, and secondly, development started 14 years ago. The dialogue was found intact out as 3D Realms went down!


Talking about dialogue, I was hoping at least the one liner and running gags would be interesting and Funny…, but this is mostly hit or miss. I knew that the humor would be chauvinistic, sure, but I'd like some wit… instead expected, it sounds like an old boy corner in a stripclub. After dialogue, that fade and just good only if it stayed in the strip-club stage, I guess, but it is everywhere and downright boring would be. Apart from the occasional one-liners and obsolete pop culture reference (but I was at the loading screen tidbits of wisdom as giggling "When shot, try to avoid bullets") it's just "I like chicks" - speech.

There are only a few things worth of wait for long, and so far in the gaming industry, I don't know if we a have had. This is the Chinese democracy of our industry: when it finally sees the light of day, any of it anyway mocks, and nobody really cares. But hey, if you have no shooter in a decade played and want to beat some other tits, you will be right at home. For the rest of us don't want unless you need a game from the past and to dig your time capsule play something, this is the best links that we all thought, it was so long vaporware. At least it was legendary, if we do not really know what to expect.

D+Revolution in the report card + multiplayer is clean and fun + controls are fast and responsive + occasionally funny one liners... but too stupid chauvinistic total-phase are basic and inconspicuously limited weapons list, only the standard - "Hot" digital girl anything but hot-date are in almost every respect
