I'm mostly into Xbox, but I haven't been playing much of anything lately. Can't wait for Halo 4 next year :bow:

If you can get past the fact that multiplayer is WOEFULLY unbalanced, it's pretty good.
Oh, that and it takes a good hour to find a multiplayer game you can join, I forgot that.

Those are a bunch of ungrateful morons.
It's not the end all to be all, but it's not a terrible game at all, in fact, it's quite enjoyable.
Was it really worth 12 years of developement? You've gotta remember that 3Drealms re-booted the game with a whole new engine quite often, so all the work wasn't culmative. It's a great game for what it is, and anyone who tells you otherwise hasn't given it a fair try.
My advice: Rent it, play it for the weekend, and then you can make up your mind.

Speaking of Duke Nukem, it seems the PR firm is intent on trying to silence the critics who have been complaining about the long development, and 2K apparently didn't want that. :clap:

I think Gearbox did with the 2007 engine.

It's fine for what it is. 12 years, we get a game that is p. Duke Nukem.

Yes, I'm pre-ordering it soon actually.
