I remember Duke 3D so fondly. It was entertaining and also a good shooter. It was a blast of a game at the time. I played it again last year on xbox live and its still fun to play. Levels are great. Yes the AI is basic but the weapons are so much fun to use. Of course you cant compare the game to similar games these days. I was never expecting this demo to be the next Half Life or Halo ( I dont want to compare it to any of the CoD games because those games have become soulless shells of games ). But I kinda wanted it to entertain me like Duke 3D did back in the 90's. It was a fools wish as a part of me always expected this game to be very simple and crude and if this demo is representative of the final product then I think its going to leave a lot of people perplexed. This game was doomed to fail after the first time they changed the engine. The game was abandoned for a reason and that was because they knew what they had wouldnt cut it in this day and age. I just feel sorry for everybody that tried valiantly to make this sequel happen only to see this emerge as the final product. Fair play to Gearbox for trying.
