Don't get me wrong this game is not worthy of game of the year or anything crazy like that but so far this game has been a breath of fresh air for me. In a generation FULL of realistic, serious, conventional shooters this game actually stands out and although I'm only on the 5th level it's been FUN as hell so far.

Also I am not a biased "duke fan" as I didn't even play Duke Nukem 3d back in the day. I never really judge much before actually trying it and maybe my opinion will change once I have completed the game but this game is getting a bit too much hate for being different which is a shame.

Such a weak character. @ you depending on other peoples opinion, and not having the courage to rely on your own.

And you even post it here, as if its something to be proud of.

He cancelled his preorder based on negative reviews and this is somehow a bad thing? I understand conceptually not agreeing with one or two reviews but I would think it really foolish to bet against the aggregate. Using your logic: You thinking jumping off of a cliff is fun, several people jump of cliff, get horribly injured, tell you about it, and you being the courageous one decide to jump anyway...

People like yourself really need to read further trough threads, so you could have clearly seen that i have elaborated with more posts than that, and ended this disscusion with Ravensmash. I was not that serious anyway, and i don't feel like going trough a ended disscusion again.

And guess what, that bolded analogy is wrong. Like i said before, its relative, not absolute, and that bolded part certainly cannot be put in correlation to what i said. Two totally different things.

The PC version scored 8/10.. But anyway, I agree with eyebrows. There are nothing but serious, realistic shooters out there nowadays. Duke Nukem is a breath of fresh air IMO...

Playing through the PC version atm and it is awesome. Great 80's action hero jokes. The game looks great and plays great. It is just a good solid run'n'gun game like we used to have back in the day. Im having a blast, but then again im above the age of teen self righteousness and know how to enjoy things for what they are. The game plays great, runs great and looks great. What more do you want?

Don't let scores bother you too much.

If you like the game, play it.

I dont see why people are suprised, All the previews said it used outdated machanics and refused to use modern standards. I played the demo and it was full of imature one liners, I really cant remember what it was but one made me laugh.

[QUOTE="ChubbyGuy40"]The minimum is a 2600 from ATI or 7600 from Nvidia. Don't get how he possibly had problems. Then again, seemed like most people even with high-end rigs were having problems with it on the PC boards. My machine ran it flawlessly though maxed out.Heil68
I'm playing it on ultra so idk what these other guys are doing.

What I'm doing is playing it on a PC that doesn't meet the minimum requirements.

There is your problem? :P I just finished chapter 3 last night and I have enjoyed the game very much thus far. Can't wait to play more tonight.
