Granted, I'm not a big FPS guy, but still, I don't think that there are many games that are much better than this (outside of graphically).

    Humor-wise, I don't really get why you would approach the game at all then, if you don't find Duke funny. 3D wasn't a great game, it was an above average Doom clone that went all Army of Darkness and had a horrible B movie hero. That is all this game is doing, only intensified. I can appreciate not liking the humor, but I would think for a lot of people the humor/history would be why you would play the game in the first place. Which is why I can't understand totally why you would feel the need to state any kind of opinion about DNF considering it seems like you wouldn't have liked it regardless of what the Quicklook on GB said.
    Well I did like Duke - when I was eight years old and I'd never seen anything like that before

    It's like everyone my age who talks about old Nickelodeon shows. Sure, they were awesome, but "All That" and "Kenan and Kel" are not funny now.

    I guess I'm just not big on nostalgia for nostalgia's sake.

      Also, Angry Birds sucks. Someone could pay me to play it and I would not enjoy the experience.
      I should note that I did play the demo and just thought the controls were not great either. The environments were bland. The graphics were poor.

      LOL at Knubb groaning me for laughing about KH's. Hahahahahahahaha.

      And Knubb, Batman: AA GotY edition is $20 on Amazon. Order that shit.

          Also everyone discussing my fanboyism. I can understand if I was talking out of my ass with no facts or anything, but I am basing my views on truths and personal experiences so to say I have no weight in my discussion is bullshit. None of you truly know how much I may play or what I have played. Twigg has the most disposable income to buy the most games, but my knowledge is truly no less than his.

            Plus , and I will speak for myself here..... I enjoy games, I love playing games but Twigg is a true gamer. I buy a game here and there and I only like certain types of games, some I will never play. He plays and enjoys everything.

            I can't speak of his income but I'm sure its all supported with drug moneys and from certain 'favors' from the speeding hotties.

                  That is bullshit too. But those are blood sucking companies that are looking for a quick buck. I have more respect for Gearbox than that. As far back as I can remember they have made quality games.

                  But from what it sounds like, at least from Thomas and Seth, most of the flak was unwarranted. I will have to judge for myself one day.

                      I'm still around and laughing at half the posts here. I'm almost convinced Knubb has no idea about what he is talking about most the time.

                      Leafs offseason training!

                              Do you want the older ones on there? I have a back catalog and Jay has some of the others, but I don't think we have every episode dating back to the beginning.

                                I got a copy of Ep. 2 from Padman and the rest is either on MediaFire or another hosting site anyone can DL copies of the mp3s from.
