Duke Nukem (takes) Forever.

Makes the wait for GT5 seem short.

[Toyless]

If its for real, then bring it on.

Loved the Duke.

[Liszt]

Loving the trailer. Plenty of nods to the original

Can't wait!

[pad58]

Loved the 3D but manhattern thing was a bit to sonic hedgehog for my liking.

[Lord Flathead]

Excellent about time.. how long was that? 15 years wait? I used to love mapping the original, hope they have a map generator set for this one. Hope this is NOT a console port.

Loving the bhees

Get some!

[S3_Graham]

please let it be good!

[MiniMan64]

The games probably going to rubbish but utterly hilarious as well.

[Mastodon2]

Can't wait, it's going to be insane getting to play it after all these years!

[Allyc85]

Loving the trailer!!

[MiniMan64]

One only hopes it's not one of those things where the rose-tinted glasses has made us weepy eyed and nostalgic.

Where could one play the old Duke games these days? They must look fairly cack by modern standards but they've got to be easily downloadable or somehting somewhere?

[Zaxxon]

That looks st, the chances of that being as good as the hype is pretty low, just some soundbites and naked women (wow).

[Dan_1981]

Its going to be awful.

Glad its finally coming out though.

[Zaxxon]

Remember the expectation for Daikatana?

De Ja Vu?

Yes the first few levels are available online, up to the first boss. I downloaded them from somewhere for the Mac. The graphics are rubbish these days but the feel of the game is still awesome.

[Sf_Manta]

I don't care too much about the graphics (Most games seem to focus on it waaaay too much and not enough on the game play these days!)

I remember playing Duke Nukem 3D on a friends PC, massive giggles ensured

And this looks much improved and still has the amusment factor

[anonymous-user]

looks good never played the first one thou..

[ambuletz]

yet to find an uncensored trailer of it. . would be interesting to see how over the stop/violent/explicit they get, seeing as its been over a decade. you just know that it would help build more hype

[JDMDrifter]

Looks just as vulgar as the others can wait
