However, this is technically the same game, though not actually, as I mentioned in the other thread. It is the same license and trademark etc. so this should probably be in the other thread.

Yea let's just put it there.
Nah. On a serious point, Duke Nukem did revolutionize shooting games and had great level design (some of the best even by today's standards), floors above floors with character interactions. Funny thing is the classic 3d one has been revamped to modern standards with the new features of modern FPS's.
You have to have a top of the line comp to play it though, it is more demanding than Crysis.

Fair dos.
Well, Duke Nukem 3D was a really great, fun game. The videos of the new one haven't really blown me away though, I'll probably check it out, but that's why I said I'd rather have another Serious Sam, cause they've proven in the last 10 years (at least to me) that they can make rather fun games. Though perhaps I even unfairly put them together, well, we'll see I guess.
I don't currently own any high end PC, I play old PC games and consoles mostly nowadays.

I've always been an oldschool gamer for the most part, and I always said that Duke Nukem, Twisted Metal, and Baldur's Gate would bring me back into gaming. 2 of those are out next year. Oh and Street Fighter.
But yea, I don't play games much anymore. I don't know the quality of the new game, but I would hope it is as good as the previous which was excellent.
The delay in the game has caused a huge rift in the fanbase though.

True, well it will be a niche game to guys like me who remember the classics, there are probably those who are more associated with the memes and the soundboard who might pick it up as well.
It's like a good and bad thing that BG was so good, it will be hard to trump with a sequel.
Baldur's Gate was fully multiplayer as well. It blows my mind how good those two games were. Neverwinter Nights was always so weak in comparison.
So in fact, the first multiplayer BG descendant that actually is bothering in the story department is, of all things, Star Wars: The Old Republic. And I have... 'issues' there.
Anyway- much as I did indeed like Nukem 3D, my favourite of the early FPS games was Heretic. That game spawned a bunch of decent sequels and then stopped dead at the end of the 90s. Boo!

Hexen 64 for the N64! That was so great, specially the music that was on the N64 version, imo made it stand above Heretic. Speaking of old games and Duke, there was a Duke Nukem for N64 called Duke Nukem Zero Hour, it was rather rubbish in the single player department, but the MP was pretty solid back in the day, it was 1st person (single player was third person) And you could choose all kinds of Dukes, Cowboy duke with the winchester rifle was my favorite.
Anyway I hope this game delivers, but I am not having high hopes, Doom 3 did not even come close to the spectacle of the first. Neither did any of the Wolfenstein's imo nor Quake 4.
I couldn't care less about another Duke Nukem game at this point. However, i suppose as long as they focus on the humor it might be worth playing. Personally, i'd rather see another Matt Hazard game but with good graphics and controls. That game was funny as hell.
