Lines like вЂњTake less damage to avoid being killedвЂќ are entertaining in their own stupid way.ДЄbout the loading screens вЂ“ theyвЂ™re annoying as hell. ItвЂ™s sad that the funniest things in the game are the tips on the loading screens. Instead of sounding like tough, take-no-crap men of war, they sound like that guy you know who tries way too hard to be cool by swearing allot and using painfully unfunny (unless youвЂ™re 12 years old) euphemisms all the while laughing at his purported wit. Whoever scripted the soldiers you meet needs beat, though. Sound-wise, other then the occasionally funny one-liner from Duke itвЂ™s all forgettable. The graphics have a few nice touches but ultimately look like a polished up graphics engine from 5 or so years ago. Seriously, the game doesnвЂ™t control that well to start with, and now youвЂ™ve got to pretend youвЂ™re Mario? No thanks. Repeat ad infinitum вЂ“ unless the game throws a poorly implemented jumping puzzle at you. You enter an area and get stuck there until you kill everything in the area with your crappy guns. My biggest gripe with combat is the arena-style feel. The teleporting aliens are the biggest pain since youвЂ™ll have them dead-to-rights, and theyвЂ™ll teleport away only to reappear right on top of you. They seem to lack any punch since the aliens absorb bullets like nobodyвЂ™s business. Some people say that the guns are fun to use but I just donвЂ™t see it that way.

The next biggest issue lies with the gunplay. Without the extra Ego, youвЂ™ll die quickly as the game progresses вЂ“ hence the sensation that these should-be-optional actions are anything but.

By doing these Duke-like events, you gain вЂEgo,вЂ™ which stands as DukeвЂ™s regenerating armor (a la Halo). TheyвЂ™re not mini games, but IвЂ™m not sure what else to call them. Lifting weights, using a urinal, or punching a punching bag are all fine, but youвЂ™re almost required to take part in these miniвЂ¦ things. Writing on a white board and shooting hoops are fun diversions and could have added something вЂ“ anything вЂ“ so the gameplay but instead seem wedged into the game. ItвЂ™s not a good game, but itвЂ™s not horrific. Now that it has, IвЂ™m kind of sorry it did.Дuke Forever isnвЂ™t what allot of industry experts describe it as. However, after a 3D engine change, a developer change (or two) and itвЂ™s devolution into vapor-ware legend status, IвЂ™d long given up on seeing this game came to light. When Duke Nukem Forever was announced back during the Clinton administration, I was intrigued. My first encounter with the game actually came at a Comp USA, and while I didnвЂ™t know what the game was, I knew I liked it.
