Well, holy freakin' crap. Glad I didn't pick up my copy.
I hope the mod community gets the console, and can do something with this. Gearbox and 3D Realms should be ashamed of themselves. Duke deserved better.

wait wait wait
Weren't you completely ignoring other reviews in previous threads, saying its still a great game for Duke fans
Now GS gives their review and you jump ship:question:
I've been thinking about it for a while. It's not sudden thing, believe me. I'll get it... just cheap.[QUOTE="Crossel777"][QUOTE="PSdual_wielder"]After 10+ years dev time. People would expect a lot I would imagine. I was expecting a lot. I was just expecting something that wasn't f***ing terrible. Decent at best i could have lived with, but geez. Well, at least it's out. Hopefully Gearbox will make a better Duke game in the future.Don't know what people could have expected for this game.

I am shocked, since IMO Borderlands was pretty awesome.

It's not entirely their fault really. The game could have been so much better if it was made from the ground up.Ok, I know for a Fact that Duke Nukem Forever has to be better than The Island of Dr. Frankenstein, or Carnival Games: Mini Golf.
Seriously though, this has to be the prime example of what happens when you develop a game too much for too long.Upparoom

Looks like this is just hit grabbing on GS part, give it a lower rating then other sites to draw in traffic, not the first time theve done it.
Meh, I am still enjoying DNF. Haters will always hate.
I wholeheartedly disagree with the GameSpot review, though there are a few things about it that I do agree with. Yes, the platforming sections are crap. Yes, the two weapon limit is stupid. Yes, the multiplayer lags.
But these flaws do not necessarily mean that the game deserved a 3.5.
Mr. VanOrd is off the mark.

I think Kevin justified his points well in the review.[QUOTE="Upparoom"]Seriously though, this has to be the prime example of what happens when you develop a game too much for too long.foxhound_foxOther examples: - Too Human - Gran Turismo 5 At least they got more favorable reviews :P

They should have done that.My guess is they needed to significantly delay it but they couldn't because, well...it's Duke Nukem Forever :P Now we have this crap.
It could also be because they didn't like the direction Forever was taking and just realeased it asap so they could work on a Duke in their vision.

And Gearbox are far from bad developers - it seems .....which is ridiculous to say: rushed? :P I loved how Kevin picked up on Duke insulting parts of the game, only for them to not be comical but true.Worst game of Forever, more like. :PLooks like I know what I'm voting as Worst Game of the Year come December :P

Well deserved. The Duke Nukem franchise has always been all flash with no substance.Mr_Cumberdale
yup right on the ball:roll:

How are you holding up Darklink? I mean even ME2 haters don't deserve to have their dreams crushed like this :P
Well deserved. The Duke Nukem franchise has always been all flash with no substance.Mr_CumberdaleThat might be true... if it weren't for the fact that Duke 3D exists. Nice try, though.
MW3 won't flop. And even if it did, There's no way it's getting a lower score than this.Only MW3 flopping hard could topple this...or can it?

I think Kevin justified his points well in the review. Oh, you played the full game and have first hand experience?The thing is, they had the time to do that.DarkLink77But the staff and budget? Knowing Gearbox, I'm sure they knew the game was in a pitiful state, and they would have started it again if they could.

Eh. Honestly, it doesn't really bother me. I can still get it down the road if I feel like it, and Duke 3D still exists. I mean, no one expected greatness here. Ah, well. Now maybe we can get a proper sequel to Duke 3D. I might have to change my signature, though. Which blows, because I really like this signature.Please Log In to post.
