Let's hope so.
Update: Find the (autoplaying) video after the break. Sorry 'bout that.

the gameplay footage of Duke Nukem Forever actually looks pretty amazing.

i have to disagree i think the gameplay looks remarkably average and standard run and gun fare. To be frank on that (limited) showing, it looks nowhere near as good as est. FPS games such as Crysis, CoD4, HL2, bioshock etc. Admittedly its only a glimpse but i see nothing to write home about
decidely average imo

Yeah, I don't know but from the little bit we saw in the video it looks very generic.....and other than Duke's voice there was nothing special here.
Still the video was really short so who knows the game might actually be cool, but as of right now its a BIG meh for me.

Crysis, beyond it's pretty trees, is awful mate. It's certainly not an established FPS either.

i dunno, i think any FPS can have crit levelled against it, Bioshock is largely linear, CoD is very linear, Doom 4 too dark etc etc. I think you have to judge each FPS on its merits and i think as a whole Crysis was an excellent game and introduced not only a great engine, but also good AI, story, and as a package was very good. COD4 was an excellent game, bioshock too. True in DN4E weve only seen a glimpse, whilst i hope it will be 'genre-defining' i cant help thinking when and IF it gets released its going to be another Daiktana (or however you spell that crap)
BTW - i played Bad company demo last night on XBLM - WOW - excellent game - NOW RELEASE FOR PC !!! :)

Embedded videos that just start playing themselves are very annoying.

Absolutely. If you have to post crappy players like that, post them after the fraggin break.

Yes Richard, please simply link to these videos next time instead of posting them directly here. The autoplay bogs down my page load and I can't scroll to read stories.

It does look standard, and it looks like Unreal Engine, but if it's DUKE, I'll buy it.

Yeah, it definitely looks like Prey 2. 3D Realms better pull out all of the stops in making it funny and politically incorrect, otherwise it will be a big flop.

If you follow the development cycle of this game you will see they changed engines once or twice, so they had to do a lot of rebuilding. I kinda feel bad for them as I cant fathom how much money has been poured into this game's development.
It looks very similar to Prey, but as long as its fun to play who really cares? I'm just curious if its as "mature" as DN3D.

DNF has live gameplay footage?! Nice.
While this is great and all, how about an update on Duke Nukem 3d for the XBLA?

Never cared about this game before until now. It basically looks like Prey, so count me in.

That guy is annoying. Or maybe it is the auto start to the video that starts every time. Every single time.

What do you mean? I enjoy the autoplay. I love how I'm listen to music and how it interrupts and makes my music almost impossible to comprehend.

I tried to pause it, and the audio restarted, and won't go away. Lame.

For those looking back at DN3D with rose-tinted glasses: there was very little that game did that other first-person shooters didn't do before. The overall charm came from the game's attitude and humor, and not from any revolutionary engine enhancements. With that being said, what little of the game was shown in the video aboe definitely doesn't look bad. As long as this latest romp manages to capture everything that made DN3D great, it'll be an enjoyable ride no matter what it LOOKS like.

im definitly not excited about this game anymore... to little to late, i doubt that these guys can create a game that has a great story and great gun play. this game has to be held to a higher standard since these fools have been spending more then 10 years making it. if they release anything short of a groundbreaking genre redefining game then, well somebody should just punch them in the face. really hard. no, make that really, really hard !!

Marti this is a video game show. marti this is a video game show. marti this is a video game show. No this a video game blog, nobody gives a shat about your stupid fvcking podcast or whatever you idiots decided I need to hear whenever I load the page. I hope this isn't a behind the scenes at X3F podcast like 1upshow because I don't care what happens behind the scenes at X3F so shut the fvck up. Let me read the stories I want in peace or I'll go somewhere else to do it.

I dont understand the 'excitement'.. DNF doesnt look very good for a game in development since the ps2 was a new console..
X3F - please burn that embedded player, its terrible..
