Duke Nukem Forever - did anyone else like it?

marl · 10 Dec 2011 at 15:06

I so liked the first game that I knew I'd never forgive myself if I didn't give Duke Nukem Forever a go. Whilst not the best game I've ever played it wasn't the worst either. I thought it had some nice touches, was true to Duke's character and for me was a 7 out of 10 game.

Not perfect, but I don't understand why it got such bad reviews!

It was mediocre for me at best, VERY linear and just turned out to be a big puzzle game

Yep I liked it a lot. Had to get closure to that epic 14-year development cycle, and while the gameplay was linear, it was great to be back in the Duke's shoes and play a non-"metro-sexual" hero for a change. Can't wait to see where they take him next time, when they aren't constrained by all the mistakes that protracted the development cycle so much.

It was alright. Not worth the years of hype. Mildly amusing would be the best term for it! Better yet Duke Nukem 3D is on GOG.com for $6 (£3.85 ish) but I feel this is one for those who were around at the time

Hence why i've Platted it and it's on eBay now, it's an abortion of a game.

Then again you have a cringe-worthy Steve Jobs signature, couldn't expect a coherent retort to be honest.

What you mean like your well thought out initial reply?

Cheers Tom.

Arr bless you think you're being clever

buchtis · 11 Dec 2011 at 01:25

3 years older than me yet acts about 12, embarrassing.

The Apple forum is this way Tom.

Cya!

Terrible, original was the best.
