Where to start? The development team for DNF has had 14 years to study for this FPS exam and could have sat beside anyone in class to copy off. It’s not Shakespeare, but I doubt anyone was expecting anything else. The aliens harness the power of the Hoover Dam to open a worm hole for more aliens to enter and now it’s up to Duke to rid the world once more of these meddling foes. The aliens return and in a very Independence Day move, the president and military commander seem content to welcome them at first and are then shocked when they start attacking. Duke is now an iconic symbol for everyone in the world and is living the life of fame and fortune in Las Vegas. To summarise in Lehman’s terms here are some aliens, bludgeon them whatever way you can. The game is set 12 (optimistically) years after the events of DK3D. If one can call it that, is pretty standard for a Duke Nukem game. I must admit nostalgia is probably the only thing which drove me to purchase this game, and possibly curiosity, to see what they could have possibly come up with after 14 years. What the hell!?! Fortunately, for 2K games, I think this was a strategy to ensure the 13-year-olds of today, who could potentially get their hands on this game (which I do not condone), won’t remember any of the original Duke Nukem games and thus have nothing to compare to this big pile of gaming tripe. Fourteen long, ridiculous years of waiting. I just want to say that again so it sinks in properly. Having completed the game on numerous occasions, I was doing cartwheels at the announcement that 3D Realms were working on another development of pixellated testosterone. The prospect of turning aliens into little red giblets, constant swearing and the sight of some partial nudity was a gaming goldmine for a 13-year-old boy.
Yes, I was under the age for the 18+ certificate the game carried but that’s what made the game all the more appealing. The long-awaited Duke Nukem Forever is finally released.Īt the tender age of 13, I got my hands on Duke Nukem 3D and enjoyed it immensely.
