Zero Punctuation: Viewer's Choice: Duke Nukem Forever

[beema]

Funny this, considering that this game is now legitimately in development at Gearbox, slated for release next year.

Yahtzee might actually have to make a real review of the real thing a year from now.

Oh god...

A review of the game that doesn't exist won.

Nah, he's so kick ass that he made a review before the game came out.

Gentlemen....

BEHOLD. http://boards.4chan.org/v/res/72113764

This is it.

THIRTEEN YEARS.

Did you seriously just link a 4chan url? You really shouldn't be on that site if you have no idea how it works tbh.

Anyway its extremely interesting timing that this wins and the game gets a demo revealed a few days later, which makes me ponder if someone knew something they weren't letting on... CONSPIRACY!

"I'M BEING A NEWFAG AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME"

Other than that, I don't thing anything Conspiracy like Is happening.

I wonder if he is gonna make another review.

This is a review of the 3DRealms game (with occasional references to the screenshots and trailers)

The new game is by Gearbox Software and has *nothing* to do with the 3DRealms game.

Yatzhee said clearly that the 3DRealms version of Duke Nukem looked like "Utterly generic brown FPS that any competant studio could have farted out in a year or two."
And, in the hands of a competant studio, they have indeed farted out the game in a year and a half. And it'll probably be another god-awful brown FPS.

The hope I have is that it'll be a reworking of the franchise in the same manner that Doom3 was. Properly.

Sorry guys but I hear the sound of Gearbox farting in Yahtzee's face.

I'd hate to break it to you, but the Duke Nukem Forever Gearbox is working is THE SAME project 3rd Realms has been working on. All they are doing now is polishing all the assets 3rd Realms has created and they are just polishing the game for release.

I think it's the irony that won. Not being a real game made it ironic, and the ironic part attracted people. This would have been a funny April Fool's video.

I seriously thought shurikens and lightning was going to win.

It was always going to be a match between those two, tbh.

what about half stake gun half grenade launcher,or half minigun half rocketlauncher , or what about half crossbow half shrunken head launcher?(they are all from painkiller games)

 

[OtherAlex]

Cant watch any of the videos, because of the bloody inane click to resume window, escapist, please fix.

 

[ForzaFerrari]

Duke Nukem Forever is actually going to kick ass though =\

Looks actual fun.. I can't wait to try stuff like flood the toilets with all the wash basins etc

 

[inpachi]

Yea the DEMO for this game was at PAX it exists!

And will be available in 2011!

after 14 years of development!

This better be the best game in the history of ALL games!

Or there will be a INSANE amount of people that are disappointed!

 

[Norris IV]

Know what? I can't wait for him to do the review of the actual game

How does it feel Yahtzee? No sign of Dolphin Races, but Alien crotch boxing is a big Y-E-S.

 

[littlesister1010]

gotta love a sarcatic review!

 

[littlesister1010]

in the membrane good sir!

 

[Waif]

I'll still be getting Duke Nukem Forever. It does look like a worthy game I think ^~^. I don't think it will be extraordinarily good, but sometimes you just gotta have a little bit of faith.

 

[Psyko]

ill eagerly await yahtzee's formal apology. cataloging and contradicting everything he said in the last review then tearfully begging forgiveness for his grossly premature trolling, nah not really, yahtzee's rape of games has been the tiny thing that lightens up my horrible life. but yea it did take too long in fairness. and if its not as good as i want it to be, im going to borrow a muslim cleric's suicide car and drive it into the lobby of Gearbox software screaming... "its time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and im all outta gum." an appropriate and
appropriate way to end my life.
AAAAAAAAND....... If it is indeed a mountain of crap of Olympian proportion, i will DEMAND that Yahtzee tear it apart and dump on it from high. at least if it IS terrible theres always Deus Ex human revolution to fall back on.

thanks yahtzee

14 DVDs? that 1 DVD a year! I'm going to get the PS3 collector's edition. It comes with a 3 bonus Blu-Rays showing the making of DNF.

c'mon people we go 3 weeks left to make Duke Nukem Forever jokes.
