Personally, I expect this to utterly fall apart.  If there's one thing I've learned about big video game developers these days, it's that when the moment comes, the angels sing, and all the planets are perfectly aligned, they mess everything up so bad that we wonder how they keep themselves afloat (or alive).  I'm pretty much expecting the Duke Nukem Forever game to be an utterly bland FPS that will only be appreciated by the usual FPS players.

Thou art faithless, and the Duke will spurn thy pleas when he returns.

Actually, watching the trailer, it looked really, really bland. Hell, even the sound of the guns was pissweak and uninspiring. This is Duke Nukem, the game has been in development for years and if each pistol shot does not shake my teeth damn near clean out and teleport hot people into my room and make their clothes fall off, what the fuck were they doing all that time?

Hot people, Gearbox. Make it happen.

Duke get in here now.  Teach these fools.

Sitting on their asses eating cake and getting fat?

 More likely every time a new engine/technology came out they tried to lump it in, things got bloated, designers said "Fuck it" and started again, more crap gets piled on, restarted again, etc. I'm betting most of the game was designed and made in the last two years.

 Although it wouldn't hurt to do what Gears of War did and make every gun sound like the apocalypse, and have explosions sound like the ones in Company of Heroes.

Thanks, Duke.
