We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Well, that's nice, FOX.
Y'all just keep pretending to be a news channel, there, while I go and actually play the game itself.

No, I can mock you just the same, and you aren't popular at all.

I think Biccat's parodying FOX here, not posting his own opinion.

Sorry, I thought that I remembered the Bulletstorm vs Fox thread being in Off Topic, since it was more about Fox than Bulletstorm (or Duke Nukem).

Will keep that in mind for when I run into another Fox Bash.

That isnt the only time FOX has literally just made up gak. Funny enough, it reminds me of a list that, I cant remember who in politics was involved in it, was made up to show songs/artists that should be banned permanently from radio/internet play. Bands like Deicide and Cannibla Corpse were on it. Funny enough though, so was a song that had no lyrics at all, it was instrumental, and best of all it wasnt even metal, it was classical. But that song was on the list simply because the name (again cant remember) sounded like it was going to ruin the world.

I simply HATE it when people say/do things about a movie/game/music what ever, and honestly have no fething idea what they are talking about

Sadly, I actually have to agree with Boba Fex. At least Fox picked a game with the content to back their claims this time around XD. Not that I agree with their conclusions, but isn't being outrageous kinda Duke Nukum's thing?

Bulletstorm making people want to go and gang-bang others was better, but this is pretty hilarity inducing as well.

Me too. In fact, I say that all of us who plan to buy DNF, buy it online somewhere and make sure you leave a review stating that Fox influenced your decision to buy it.

I know i will.

You know......

I'm going to post a review on Metacritic because of that Say something along the line of "I didn't care about Duke Nukem Forever until Fox News said it was outrageous, at which point I was interested in trying it. Boy am I glad I got their referal!"



So for buying it, I'm waiting to see if Valve caves in and makes a TF2 Duke Nukem Promotion.

Duke Nukem isn't outargues, not truly outrageous. That would be Jem and the Holograms.

Amidst the mists and coldest frosts he thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts.

It's Duke Nuke'em. If you buy that for your child, or let them play it if they buy it themselves, you don't deserve to be a parent.

Laughing all the way to the bank?

You mean after 12 years of Development... 5? different graphics engines...

More like a money sink...

They can use all the FREE publicity they can get


The company that was responsible for the endless delays went under, and Gearbox snatched up all the Duke Nukem rights. Gearbox is probably gonna make a fortune.

Oh hell yeah. If they succeed on the reinvention of duke's franchise, they've just snatched a cash cow from the jaws of history.

Agreed.

Any game that can go through Development Hell for 15 years and have this much hype, SOLELY because they plan on actually releasing it, is definately going to be worth the investment for Gearbox, even if the game is awefull.
