Duke Nukem Forever Review

Ok I need to explain that I got into shooters way back, I enjoyed games like Doom, Duke Nukem 3d, Tribes, Wolfenstein. So i'm used to those games, thats not to say I dont enjoy the new shooters but i do miss the challenge of no regenerating shields or health packs everywhere but there fun.... so on with the review



Over all the game is  decent game it's what i expected from a game that  has been the bastard child of multiple teams and over many years... it shows it's age but is it still a decent enjoyable game... yes it is. Does it have it's issues yeah it does but to me it's about enjoying the game, if you're a fan FPS's and you want all FPS's to have the same if not better quality of Call of Duty, Battlefield, Killzone, Resistance, Halo series then you will be dissapointed in this game, it's not a serious FPS players game. The enjoyment of this game is the complete disregard for all the modern styles, yes it borrows from it so players can easily get  into the game and know how to play BUT you have to look at it as it's the content it's about the one liners, about the girls, about shooting pig cops and throwing poo at the walls. IT'S MEANT TO MAKE YOU LAUGH not be serious, I mean c'mon the story alone should tell you that.

All the current reviewers i have seen have lost this and think it needs to be compared to the more modern shooters....I will not name them in my review.

Onto the review

Pro's
1). Duke Nukem Forever is released, we should as gamers be happy that a company who knew that it probebly would not stand up to the modern shooters still released a risky fun and funny shooter. hell it was in developement longer than Too Human....

2). Multi-player: the multiplayer is good and fun not reinventing the wheel but do we have to do that every shooter?

3). One Liners and Humor: it's all there it makes fun of all the shooters and even itself, but this game is not for someone who takes shooters seriously cause they will probebly not like it.

Con's

1). Graphics : The game shows it's age and how many teams handled it.

2). Aiming: Aiming can be frustrating at times but once u get used to it it's not too bad. Slow down when too many enemies get on screen.

3). Platforming: i am not a fan of this in any fps cause personally no FPS does it right and probebly wont ever.


Overall Ratting

3.5/5 stars

Final Thought:
there i'm happy Duke Nukem Forever truly did take forever to come out i am happy gearbox did release it, do i think it's worth a 60$ price tag MEH i think it would have been a better price at like 40-50. overall it's a fun game and it's refreshing to see one of my old favorite accually come back and it's like i played it way back. I hope this help you guys let me knwo what you think of it.
