People seem to not understand why Duke Nukem Forever failed. It was designed -over- three gaming generations and handmedowned between 3 different companies to boot. Gearbox got a garbage can full of halfbaked shit to work with from five years before when they got it when they bought up Duke Nukem Forever. So they made a safe fanservice game, because thats all you could have done with what that game had in it.
I have no idea what you are all talking about. Duke Nukem Forever was AWESOME! Seriously, all you cod players dont understand, that Gearbox kept the original duke feel with his hilarious one liners, and all the puzzles you had to stop and think to figure out. Duke Nukem is different than your shitty Cod. Cod never makes you think, and if you never play anything else, you'll end up like some of those people on Machinima.
@RustyBulletHole2 dude thats a bit harsh :l people could like duke nukem forever and call of duty and machinima :O it did'nt seem that good because it took so long to make it took about 12 years to make and some of the people playing it before that could of been 20 and the kept the same feel which is grate but after 12 years it's not much of a sin to expect an ungrade :o woah all this typing hurts my brain :S
(sighs) Duke Nukem forever had so much potential, and yet..what was got a pretty bad
but like duke meant was, 3D realms did give us Duke Nukem forever as in his spirit, duke will always live on, whether its remembering the good times of Duke Nukem 3D or as the fail of Duke Nukem Forever, either way he will be remembered probably forever :)
I just hope now that gearbox has the rights to him, they will make another Duke game, even if its just remaking Duke nukem 3D, just get it done right
Now that Duke nukem forever is FINALLY out of the way. We can move on and make a new and better Duke.
Maybe they should make a third person action adventure/shooter Duke game. That would be awesome. Or just make another FPS. But I'd a third person game.
I think DNF pretty much gave what I was expecting, but imho the best of the Duke series was Time To Kill. I was neither disappointed nor was I blown away by DNF.
Duke has no real personality or any real depth, he's just a guy who spouts movie one-liners. Back when FPS like Doom and Wolfenstien were out, Duke stood out..now there is way too much to compete with.
I was not impressed in the least with Duke Nukem Forever! The graphics were outstanding, and I know NOONE will disagree with that. But as for pushing boundaries and actually putting THOUGHT into the game.....Gearbox made an epic fail. The old Duke Nukems were AWESOME, they had LOTS of thought put itno them. Even though Duke Nukem Forever wasn't very good, I still give it a 10 out of 10. Because....well....it's Duke Nukem! HAIL TO THE KING BABY!!!!!
@TheCopper1234 the problem with duke nukem is simple:duke is a 90s character, and he's absolutely terrible now. had this game been released(with appropriate graphics) in the 90s, it would have been viewed as an amazing game. however, now he has to compete with far better games, and he's a pretty crappy character.
@TheCopper1234 The problem with what you're saying, though, is that the Duke Nukem Forever we got WAS the one 3D realms made. Gearbox did nothing else than finish it. Personally, i thought the game was good, overall, with some parts being great. If, or when, Gearbox decides to make a new Duke game, we'll see if it'll be the sequel Duke 3D deserved. HAIL TO THE KING!
@paozn2 I definitely hear what you're saying Duke Nukem will be awesome no matter what anyone says. He has proven time and again how awesome his games are. PERSONALLY, what killed it for me was the gameplay, I felt like Gearbox could have done more to put more..........feeling into it.....but hey what do I know, I'm not a programmer so I have no room to judge.
Duke Nukem Forever sucked, but I am still a loyal fan, and this little montage might be the reason.
Damn you Duke, I know you still have one more epic game in you, the question is how much shit must come up first, and while DNF was not shit, but its not what we have been waiting for.
@AlphaFirefly Keep the faith in Duke, my friend. I can agree we expected a lot more since waiting 15yrs for this. It's not like DN3d, which IMO nothing will ever come close, but I hope, as you do, the best is yet to come for DNF.
@AlphaFirefly Yes,but you know that they can make a better game.And you also know,someone eventually will make a better DN game.Even if it has to be fanmade.
@VinsaneOne you're a fucking idiot.. i mean the speech is not jon st. john, the voice of duke nukem, its not real clip from any part of the game or development team, its simply some faggot who made a voice over of himself making some bullshit speech and idiot kids like you think its 3d Realms and jon st. john hinting about duke nukem forever.. its some kid cant you tell? go google jon st. john retard
@buradd Lets not get all upset over it. My comment to you was a joke, sorry it offended you. Maybe you didn't realize this is a fan made video by me (read the credits), and something I made as if 'I' were Duke and what he would say if he could make such a speech. I'm known for my Duke voice acting. Yea Jon St John is the man, but I do my best to come close. The comments for my work as writer, producer, director and voice in my other Duke videos says it all. See for yourself, no google needed!
@Morgansaur Thought of removing his comments, but yea, it was on the funny side so I let it stay. My favorite part is saying some kid did this. Man, I'm probably older than his father! A video response from him would have been epic.
I think if there were a Big Four about video games, I would say it would be a team of Duke Nukem, Kevin(Blood), Doom soldier, and Wang (Shadow Warrior).
They need to get John Romero to help out, the mastermind of DOOM working for Gearbox and producing DNF would be godlike. Plus ID and Gearbox are both in Texas.
You're so right ! 3D Realms may be no more, so what ? We will still play Duke Nukem because he is a part of the gaming history (along with Doom) and will never ever die. HAIL TO THE KING !
kool, Duke Nukem is so awesome, it's good to see people still have faith in Duke, I do.
It really bothers me how people are just abandoning the series all together, just because DNF is going through a rough time. I know itll be released, and it'll be good to finally play a REAL shooter, and get away from gaylo (halo is so overrated) Hail to the king!
btw nice job of the voice, could be better but nice!!
It sounds half-accurate, obviously NOWHERE near as good as Jon St John,. but it's OK, I guess. I can't do the voice, I admit, but I still have the right to criticize anything I see on the Internet because this is the Internet. So the voice gets 4 out of 10.
But the concept of the video, that's just retarded. Seriously, Duke fans are like a dog made of nachos: stupidly loyal and extremely cheesy.
Hey, I totally agree on the first half of your comment. You have every right to criticize. I don't expect anything less, that's why this is here.
But it's the second part of your input that's undoubtably retarted. What makes you the expert on Duke fans? Go stuff your face with some cheesy nachos, and think of how much you really don't know about me or any Duke fan
If you guys are IRL like you are on the 3DR boards, I don't want to know anymore about you. :P
To be fair though, there was a time when I thought this game would be the game of my dreams. The difference between you and me, however, is that I woke up.
And about the cheesy thing... it's a bit self-congratulatory, and to add this to official Duke canon strikes me as a tad pretentious.
But as I've said, it's the Internet. All I can do is criticize. I'll leave you alone now.
your voice is so cool go on teh site to be duke nukem i dunno what the site damn!@ btu if u show your voice liek that they will totaly take you for the new duke nukem!
A 4 out of 10? Really? The imitation isn't perfect (but what is?) but it's almost identical if you ask me. I'd give it a 9/10.
As far as Duke fans go, I don't see how Duke fans are any more loyal to their franchise than any other fan of anything else is. The company went under water which means quite literally that Duke won't be around. If it's "cheesy" and "stupid" to be upset about that, then I don't know what being a fan of anything actually is.
Excellent Video! This really makes the point that Duke would never want people to give up even if things look bad, because he'll be back, and it'll take more than the financial difficulties of one company to stop him! I honestly think this video perfectly represents what Duke would say about this situation. By the way the voice sounds great!
