This is going to be insane. Can’t wait, never thought I’d ever actually get to play it.

hrm, well it could be awful, no doubt about it. but as I recall duke 3d, and this may be through the rosy lens of remembrance, it was quite a canny parody of a particular strain of american popular cultural machismo in the mold of rambo or die hard. so in retrospect, the evil dead references make perfect sense. a new duke could be terribly exploitative, or it could provide delightful critical commentary on a new generation of media. who might provide a fitting model for this generation’s duke? it’s not going to happen, but I’d love to see duke qua jack bauer. terrorists, chemical weapons, and torture that’s *always* justifiable. could be cathartic if played for laughs.

@UbeRamza I think they are doing it because they know there was a lot of time invested in this game plus it would be awesome for the team that brought this highly anticipated game back and save the day. Everybody wins.

I know I’m alone on this one but I think its a total waste of time and creativity on their part. Why resurrect a subpar series when they could be working on a brand new IP.
