An Alien monster with 3 tiddies

"hell I'd still hit it!"

This game's gonna be insane. That trailer is pure win.

Yup, the original Duke3D was Graphically outdated when released, but it's greatness was the Gameplay. No game has come close to matching its' sheer fun factor.

I'm sorry, wut? Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and assume you were about 5 years old when it came out. Duke 3d looked incredible for its time.

kinda hazy on this but i thought duke just looked ok for its time, it was id that was cutting edge. duke had competent "me too" graphics

Duke 3d was very good looking for its time. I'm not sure you'd call it "cutting edge", but definitely WAY above par, and the reviews of the time reflected that. Definitely not "outdated" as the ignoramus above claims.

edit: BTW id didn't have anything "cutting edge" at the time. Quake was still yet to be released, and their previous title to that was the Doom series, which were well outdated by the time Duke 3d came out.

It will suck, the hype is way out of control. There's no way it will meet expectations. Showing his dong when he takes a leak or a random ass-shot of some hooker won't make up for it.

Pathetic.

Has Hell frozen over? Is it the end of the world? I'll (probably) get it for the nostalgia of playing Duke 3D back in the day.

Obviously you're not the intended audience for the game.

Upon further investigation, you're correct. Forgive me, that was a long time ago.

Quake followed it within 6ish months. Duke3D looked good, but was on par with its' contemporaries. Here's a nifty video of the History of the FPS genre

I seriously can not freaking wait.
This may be the 1st game I ever pre order.

I spent so much freaking time play the original back on TEN with buddies. I wish I still had contact info for those guys. I'd love to hook up and get some games in.

I'm really hoping they release an SDK and people remake some old maps too.

I played Duke on TEN for a long time. I got up to the top 20 in rankings if I remember. I wouldn't be surprised if we crossed paths back then I also mapped back then and a few of my maps made it into rotation (Does Lazer711 ring a bell? Any map that was hot on his site would get played on TEN )

I hope there will be an equivelant of a build.exe and multiplayer

If it's using the Unreal 3 engine, there should be a modified UnrealEd available. Although that'll depend on whether the company releases it.

Duke Nukem 3D is also getting a re-release: http://www.dukenukemreloaded.com

Got the blessing from the makers of Duke 3D. Jon St. John is re-doing the voice overs and some new stuff.

Eh, when the most they can offer is concept art I don't hold much hope. This will have the same fate as 99.9% of mods.

what hype?, its been a decade of fcuk. that story of fail tempers any hype that can be created. people are just curious.

 

[Crow550]

Hey the hardcore fans that have spent the past 12 years in the Duke Nukem Forever thread at the 3drealms forums will be the ones with the hype.

I am just hoping it's a fun game with awesome co-op and death er duke match.

I never played Duke on Ten.net but did play on Heat.net which later Microsoft Zone and then using some IP program.

Wow memories.

Plus you can already play an enhanced version of Duke 3D with Eduke32 & HRP pack: http://hrp.duke4.net/

Along with Yang for Multiplayer.

Agreed, that was also my favorite line.

 

[nyker96]

they should really call this game Duke Nekem Waiting Forever ...

 

[thecoolnessrune]

They should really have waited till 2012 to release I wonder how many gamers would hesitate putting the disc in their drive for fear of bringing about the apocalypse?

Neat link, but WTF at Immortal Cumbat...D:

lol, ya I was all shocked by that too. Only watched 4 videos of the series, should watch the rest I suppose.

 

[StinkyPinky]

I read a preview of it somewhere where the guy spent some time playing it.

Summary: Crass tedious humor, terrible animations, confused gameplay where it changes from platformer, to puzzle game, to action....overall the guy seems pretty negative. And that's the preview where they are normally polite.

Hmmm.

Honestly, I don't expect much from it at all. I don't see HOW it could be polished and "ground breaking" with the number of writes and rewrites this thing has gone through at this point.

I WILL play it though. I mean I kinda feel like I have to...

I think I just read the same article. Dude's a stiff.
