But 3D Realms is still 3D Realms, consisting of mostly the same people, so I think they'll get it right in the end.

I remember seeing Boogerman and Conker's Bad Fur Day and thinking "yeah, in the glorious gaming future, no one will be able to scrape together the money to produce that." Except Psychonauts; that game rules. Also, the Real Doll FAQ page has some of the best, and presumably frequently asked, questions about rubber sex toys EVER. Do spoof games still make money?

FPS’s have moved beyond the B.J." Blazkowicz’s and Quake protagonists that Duke Nuken was intending to parody, (and on a larger scale, action movie heroes like John McClane and “Dirty” Hairy Callahan.) The humor would need a serious update, (along with Duke himself) to be relevant and engaging as a game. That’s not to say an effective modern FPS spoof couldn’t be done! It needs to take the approach of Shaun of the Dead, (as in being a satire and a damn good zombie movie at the same time). Games he’ll need to parody now: Halo, Half-Life, BioShock, Call of Duty games, etc. while using one of these game's engines at the same time! Ok, nerd moment over, you may now go on with your lives.

I remember playing Duke Nukem back in the day. But have they really been working on the game for 10 years? Fucking hell!

I played it through like 30 times. That was mainly cause I was a poor bastard that could only afford one game, but still it rocked! Now finally the sequel is here. HOT DAMN! I think I've saved up enough to afford my second game. Does anyone know if this will still run on my Pentium 1? Or should I finally upgrade to the Pentium 2? Either way my family is going on a diet.

Poor Cody. His determination may yet compensate for his lack of ability, winning him the love from his father that he so desperately covets.
