I really don't understand why this game has receaved such appaling criticsm. I myself have just played through the campaign and probrably had more fun with it than the majority of modern shooters in the past 3 years. DNF is a game that doesn't take itself seriously, it is a classic FPS where it is you a bunch of awesome weapons against a ton of enemies and bosses. It has light hearted humour throughout with many hidden gags. The only things i can think of to really criticise is that the multiplayer isn't the best but it isn't terrible either that and the graphics aren't the greatest but they are by no means bad but even if it did have terrible graphics that shouldn't matter as it is the gameplay that makes a game. It is in no way like Call of Duty or any other military shooters, it is bright, humourous, crude, action everywhere and most importantly alot of fun. If you love old school shooters this one is definetley for you.

It's worth beginning this review with a health warning, if your offended by nudity or sexual game play stay clear and stop reading now...This game has cause much division among gamers and I'm sure will continue to do so for a while yet. I would propose that perhaps because this game been misunderstood more than anything else. If you considered this a serious game like Bioshock, or Rage you would be grossly disappointed.
The most important thing is to recognise the context in which DN3D and the previous games of this franchise emerged. An era when gameplay was so limited, and graphics so shocking that 'serious' game play was never going to happen. If you had played the original you would have found the same chauvinistic male protagonist and women simply drooping at his feet that DNF delivers. In addition level designs were minimal (again like DNF) and even if you found cover glitchy game play meant you got shot regardless.
To be honest Duke has always been a hedonistic, psychopath spouting one liners while getting kicks out of his own reflection. Fact. So why would you expect different now? Duke has always been offensive and controversial game, particularly so in our present culture that seems to enjoy urinating on every bonfire it can find. For someone who loved the original games it's refreshing to take a step outside the serious intensity of present FPS games out there and enjoy all the elements that make my day: Porn, beer, and gratuitous violence....

Okay, right away when I bought this I wasn't expecting a great game. I was expecting a rubbish storyline and quite a lot of alien ass-kicking.
I was mostly right, though the alien ass-kicking did not exactly satisfy ones need and after playing a level, I wanted to play a proper alien ass-kicking game like Serious Sam!
If you are wanting a few laughs and a few moments of fun, then wait until this game is at a really cheap price...and I mean cheap!

As long as you get this game for the right price, it makes sense :-) Although if at a higher price it has competition, when the price is low enough it's a great purchase...

After waiting 12 years for a sequel to the fantastic Duke Nukem 3d we get a game that should have a warning saying too dear, too tired and too short. Actually the too short was probably a godsend.
Though not totally pathetic the game has more lows than highs, and the high points are more like not sucking as much points.
I now know why there were no reviews before the game came out because if there were this game would have bombed.
The games producer should be ashamed at charging so much for a less than mediocre first person shooter.
Wait until its on ebay for a tenner before buying.......That wont be long.
Its a shame cos I like duke but this game has killed him.
The King is Dead.....!!!!

I can't understand why people have criticised this game so much, it really isn't that bad at all, though..it is by no means perfect either. The one thing that I blatantly dislike, which is a common compliant is the load times between dying & restarting at the last save point & that for me loses a star.
You could argue as well that the aiming of weapons is quite difficult at times, but as there aren't as many enemies as other FTPs coming at you, you'll actually find that the difficult aiming is a plus that adds to the challengability as otherwise the same would be too easy.
In short, Gearbox got it right here.
Alot has been said as well about only being able to carry 2 weapons at a time with limited ammo, is that a bad thing really? Do people want to be challenged or not?
As the game goes on & you die a few times, you'll see that the lack of weapons is good in that you have to plan what you'll be taking into the next area of the level.
Essentially, people expecting a sequel from Duke 3D will find that this is actually a reboot, much in the same way Doom 3 was a few years back.
The platform orientated puzzles & the driving sections are a definate plus point & people who have said that you drive aimlessly through the desert for hours must consider a 5-minute walk/drive down the road a long distance as well...there is nothing tedious about it at all, if anything, it's a highlight & plenty is going on...it's no Sunday drive in the country, believe me.
Duke getting shrunk also adds a good element to the game & adds a whole new challenge when you're forced to take on enemies when your no bigger than a baked bean tin.... Read more ›
