Yes, folks, it's my pleasure to announce that the King is back, and this one isn't much for stuttering his way through long-winded speeches. Sure, he's got a few choice words for those foolish enough to get in his way, but as we're all aware by now, he's much more a man of action and his newest game has plenty of that.

Duke Nukem Forever originally began its life as a sidescroller instead of a shooter back in 1996, and that canceled version has just been leaked.
Very cool, but i don't know how real this is... I'll check it out later to find out.
Duke Nukem Forever, the troubled FPS from Gearbox and 3D Realms, has been restored to more traditional 90s shooter thanks to a sweeping “remaster” mod
kinda of a misleading title.
Mod features:
Sprinting removed and faster player movement
Jump height increased
Swim speed is much faster
Player can now hold breath underwater for 45 seconds instead of 15
Weapon rebalance and screen shake when shooting removed
2/4 weapon limit completelly removed
Quicksaves (F5 by default)
Depth of Field removed and new post processing effects
Driving sections are now in first person perspective
yw.
It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.
It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well
Duke Nukem Forever, the infamous and controversial FPS from 3D Realms, apparently looked much better before launch, as modders discover various cut features
Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.
Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.
I've got chills... The King is Back!
I just can't believe it might actually be released.... Kind of don't want it to. Duke should stay dead and gone.
I can't wait for his return
Honestly, I hope that they give that guy with the original receipt from twelve years ago a Collector's Edition, a shirt, an exclusive 1-time only weapon, free DLC over the game's life, or some other stuff. Just to prove that he's awesome.
Still though, the game looks crazy. Just the kind of juxtaposition with the ultra-realistic modern war shooters that are all the rage now.
Bring it on Duke. Bring it on.
Hells to the yeah! I don't know how I'm gonna wait 3 more months for this to come out. I want this game soooooooo bad!
