that's not a review, its a series of excuses of "well they did this for this reason"..doesn't mean it doesn't still suck to do them.

I can kick you in the nuts, jsut because I can give a reason why I did so, doesn't make it less shitty for me to do it.

Although I don't agree with his view on Witcher 2, he does have a point. Way too often content of the review does not match its own score.

Well he gives the game a 6.5, but I didn't care about the review. I just thought he made good points about the hypocrisy of the gaming media, and that the game doesn't deserve low scores like 2/10 and 3/10.

I watched the video up to the point when he said that "the graphics are amazing", then my troll detector siren went off I lost all attention for what he was saying.

Fixed.

He's right though, anyone saying it looks shit has probably just got a deep, passionate hate for the game for whatever reason. Looks like any old console port. Screenwide blur as "AA" method? Check. Bloom? Check. Low resolution textures? Check. Perhaps the character models are "sub-par" but since those could be older than the current generation consoles..

Sad part? I'm not even joking Sad

I clicked on the link without looking at the comment and as soon as I saw him I remembered this was the same retarded fuck who said The Witcher 2 was too hard on his brand new PC. After that I closed the video...

Or The Witcher 2, or Assassin's Creed 2 (I coincidentally have it installed on the PC ), or ....

No one is saying that you shouldn't play the game but for the first time there is a consensus when it comes to hype/gameplay/graphics and it isn't a good one... Never mind....the idea is you shouldn't pay for the game Cool Face

I know, I hate him, I hate him so much for his Witcher videos that he blocked me Very Happy But his rant about Duke in the gaming media is spot on! God knows how many reviews I have read/watched where a game gets near perfect score despite all the bile they just threw at it.
And there are way too many games that gets near perfect or perfect, WTF??? Every month you see approx. 3 near perfect games if the media is to be believed. Those morons have undermined every rating system for the last 3-5 years! Mad

Actually I think Modern Warfare 1 & 2 singleplayer are pretty much the same thing (just the same as mw3 will be). They share the characters, gameplay mechanics, on-rails style, etc. I like them all for what they are, an action-packed interactive movie with an interesting-enough plot to keep me playing (not so hard to keep playing even if the plot is bad though, as each game can be completed in around 5 hours). Now the multiplayer, I guess there you could tell differences.

About DNF graphics I don't think they're shit at all, they're just dated, like from 2005 or so. But that didn't bother me at all nor did it keep me from enjoying it.

all I got out of his review was

"despite the media, forums, blogs, and players majority saying the game is maybe worth the '5.99 bargain bin', I'm here to correct you all, and let you know that it a great game, and since I have a youtube channel that makes my opinions facts, and all others that disagree should be reprimanded"

a 3/10 too low? perhaps..and giving it a 5/10 is more accurate..but to say "3/10 is WAY out of line" is absurd..an exaggeration maybe..

I cant finish the game..I really really really tried to.

but I got to the part right after the hive and at the burger tower. and like I said before the obviously forced and useless choke points to make you 'wait, kill creatures for a few minutes for no reason..NOW you can go" drove me crazy.

some are almost like an Atari side scroller game.."
look one direction, kill 4 things, wait for more to come, kill them..repeat for 5 minutes..HEY A harder 'leader' one...and what do you know killing him opened up the blocked path".

Sure that's fine now and then, it slows the pace well..but every 5 MINUTES? really? you needed to stretch the gameplay that much?

the most obvious and painful one for me was on the burger level..climbing up the side..where you use the turret in the crashed helicopter...shot down timed and spaced waves of ships coming at you, then a few guys that hover in, then some ship waves...hover in, waves..hover in..waves...boss like one..WIN!

it feels like waiting in a queue at the bank..take a few steps, wait, take a few steps wait...it breaks the flow of it to me..
if I got the skill and the ammo to forge forward and take them down as I go without dying..why stop me for generic reasons?

Yeah....with the "only" difference between 1 and 2 is that the first had cohesion, atmosphere and I enjoyed playing it from start to finish. Moments like the Nuke (hehe.....sry old Duke) devastated landscape and the sound of children playing just before dying, the failed assassination in Prypiat or the AC-130 scenes where some of the best in gaming.

I hear you brother....where is that video from GT that keeps floating around and they keep removing it with the cunt from GT (the prick that usually hosts invisible walls and is Chief Editor I believe) that says we only reward original titles and Modern Warfare 2 pops up with 9. something score.

That always make me ROFL and calms me down Smile

Well said. MW2 was more of a collection of unrelated maps with hardly any context between them.

I just beat it and unlocked the game modifiers.

Shit...this game should have been on 125 or even 150% speed by default. I just played a level to try it out and it feels much better this way. I was hopping around and circle strafing boars at comical speeds like the good old days. I know you can hop and strafe in normal speed but it feels RIGHT when it's this fast.

Not sure how the other levels will hold up to that speed though.

Very true.

I mean, a game studio can work on a game for 12 years, get canned, then have another studio come in to polish their work and show what they where working on, while not realizing that it's a horrible sorry excuse of a shitty game, then give reasons as to why someone shouldn't make truthful reviews on it by threatening to "black list" them. Doesn't make it less of a shitty game for them to do it.

Okay I finished this, and read some reviews after. Seems a lot of sites rate it 3/10. Sorry but it's just not that freaking bad.

6.5/10 for me. I would play it again, I had fun playing it. It's nothing special, and pretty bad in some parts, but it's FUCKING DUKE NUKEM. Personally I enjoyed the platforming elements a lot of sites complain about.

However, I do not understand what did 3d realms spend 12 years on making...there's nothing special in there, aside for a bunch of crappy minigames.
