Lol,"I'd still hit that". Duke is the original Chuck Norris.

The jokes about Duke Nukem Forever taking so long to come out have covered a lot of ground, but I don't know that they've ever gone into the credits territory. As you might imagine, the list of people who worked on DNF is going to be quite lengthy indeed.

"We couldn’t possibly internally identify every person touched by this game from the inception of Duke Nukem Forever," writes Gearbox community manager Chris Faylor. "It is our desire to recognize and acknowledge the people who have in some way been a part of the legacy and evolution of the game, so we’ve launched a webpage."

Considering how open the possible affiliations are, this is going to be one hell of a credits sequence. Here's hoping we get a cheesy, ridiculous song to set the mood.

Also, there's this totally boss action figure up for sale:

F*** those dirtbag vultures. Gamestop had it for the advertised $100.00 that it was -supposed- to be retailed at.

Correction! Amazon had it at $99 like everywhere else. The "New and used from $xxx" is by folks who preordered it and are trying to scalp buyers. They're not affiliated with Amazon, they're just selling things through them. Amazon marketplace (I think it's called) is a lot like eBay stores in that sense.

I'm not sure how else to buy it through Amazon, where every copy of the game was listed at a blistering $350.00

Unless there's 2 versions of Amazon.com, that's all I saw listed.

Duke Nukem Forever has been rated by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board and, if nothing else, the fourteen-year wait for the game was worth it just for this. It is, perhaps, the very pinnacle of everything the videogame industry has been working towards.

"During the course of the game, players enter a strip-club level and view several topless dancers and receive lap dances," states one section of this smutty missive. "A couple of missions within this level require players to recover sex toys and pictures of topless women.

"A few sequences strongly imply sexual acts: two women appear to perform fellatio on the central character (e.g., raising their heads from his lap) -- though there is no actual depiction of the sex act; Duke moans and leans up against the wall of a bathroom stall (furnished with a hole) -- it is implied that a sex act (not depicted) occurs."

You can read the entire summary below. Welcome to the Citizen Kane of gaming, folks!

Content descriptors: Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Mature Humor, Nudity, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, Use of Drugs and Alcohol

Rating summary: This is a first-person shooter in which players assume the role of Duke Nukem, an action hero who must save Earth from invading aliens. Players use pistols, rail guns, shotguns, explosives, and Duke's bare hands to attack and kill the alien enemies. The majority of gameplay involves destroying these enemies in frenetic gun and laser battles in order to move on to the next section. Aliens are often decapitated or dismembered when hit, sending large splashes of blood across the ground, surrounding walls, and players' screen.

Some sequences depict more 'over-the-top' instances of violence: aliens getting stabbed in the head or impaled; a human soldier bursting into bloody gibs after being tossed through propeller blades. In one sequence, players have the ability to shoot human characters that are trapped in pod-like alien webbing; bodies explode into pieces upon impact.

During the course of the game, players enter a strip-club level and view several topless dancers and receive lap dances. A couple of missions within this level require players to recover sex toys and pictures of topless women.

A few sequences strongly imply sexual acts: two women appear to perform fellatio on the central character (e.g., raising their heads from his lap)—though there is no actual depiction of the sex act; Duke moans and leans up against the wall of a bathroom stall (furnished with a hole)—it is implied that a sex act (not depicted) occurs.

The game also contains several sexual references and innuendo in the dialogue (e.g., 'I have hungry—you have big egg ro' for me, Duke,' 'If you supply the dancing, I'll supply the pole,' and 'I'll need something naughty to play with.'). Duke's comments range from jokes about colon cleansing to several one-liners about sex and female body parts. Bathroom humor includes the ability to urinate in toilets or urinals and/or pick up feces from toilets and throw it against walls. Players can use both steroid pills and beer as power-ups; when beer is consumed, the screen temporarily blurs. The words 'f**k,' 'sh*t,' 'c*ck,' and 'a*shole' appear in dialogue and on-screen text.

Scans from Official Xbox Magazine have revealed the four multiplayer modes that will feature in Duke Nukem Forever.

The four modes are; Dukematch, Team Dukematch, Capture the Babe and Hail to the King.

Dukematch is simply your usual deathmatch, Capture the Babe is just capture the flag but you must gently smack your babe to calm her down if she starts fighting you and finally Hail to the King is just a variation on King of the Hill according to duke4.net.

Multiplayer is said to support up to 8 players with 4-a-side gameplay, there will be 10 maps available at launch and an XP system will be in place allowing for customization also in addition steroids will be available in game that will allow for one hit punches and increased speed.
