Cool, most of them look like you pretty much just have to play the game with getting various types of kills.

I hate achievements/trophies where you have to find 9 million of something or grinding something for hours on end.

raunchy5503d ago

Isn't that the whole point of achievements? To put some effort into getting them? They shouldn't be easy to get just by playing through the game normally.

ShinraE55503d ago

Although I do agree, I think (can't say for sure) his point was against the lame achievements, such as insane collectible counts (Crackdown 2 anyone) or insane grinds (Gears 2, Star Ocean TLH)

Excalibur5503d ago

@ShinraE5 yes, that is what I'm saying.
I have a few for Portal 2 that are driving me absolutely nuts.
Play co-op with someone who hasn't played the game...Really?
Of course I don't mind putting in some effort getting them I just hate the ones that take no skill what-so-ever to get like grinding the Brumak in gears for 6 hrs to get 100,000 kills.

ShinraE55503d ago

This is perfect; NO MP achievements

Those who want to play MP can, and those who don't want to bother can leave it alone. Should reduce boosters/cheaters online and leave it to those who want to compete.

Wish more developers followed suit

Hope there is some DLC + more achievements for Ol' Dukey Duke.

yw.

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

Snookies121356d ago

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.

Venoxn4g1356d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

porkChop1398d ago

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.

ZycoFox1398d ago

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot1398d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

ZycoFox1398d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel1398d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
