No mention at all about Duke Nukem being on sale for $39.99 (normally $59.99) at GameStop? What a surprise. Read more

Damn, they've got the the framerate on this thing locked down tight. I think I saw one tiny dip when a grenade gibbed someone, but other than that it looks crazy smooth. Read more

Day one purchase for me. Looks beautiful, but I wish they'd get rid of how the sand "pushes out" so far in front of you. Even water doesn't do that, and it's distracting. Read more

I'm an absolute casual at fighting games, unable to do more than basic, jumping in 3-5 hit combos. Normally all the talk of cross ups and frame counting and whatnot is totally boring, but this video never fails to make me wish I could play these games better. So badass. Read more

After beating the game, a time trial mode becomes available. Completing time trial opens up special items like new weapons and the parachute. Read more

My wife wants to commit suicide when I go lizard hunting or just exploring (which is really fun). She usually just gies and gets on the computer, because while exploring the empty world is beautiful and exciting when you're holding the controller, it's apparently pretty damn boring to watch.

Yeah, there's TONS of unused assets left in the game world you can find by unlocking the parachute. If I'm not mistaken, I think there's even an unused colossus somewhere, but it's completely static and has no collision programmed so you can't climb it. Read more

God, I love everything about this game. Played the PS2 version the other day (for about the 10th time) on my 60gb PS3, and it still holds up. Read more

Here's the thread with some pics I took last night showing the difference after a reload. Will be doing more tonight. Gearbox has said they're reading the topic, so hopefully it results in a patch. Read more

So me and a few guys on the Duke Nukem forums have found out that why the 360 version looks so much worse than PC and PS3. The same higher quality textures are on the disc but simply aren't loading due to a bug, leaving the low quality maps in place even when you're close to them. Starting a level, then exiting out Read more

Good God, that's the most horrible thing I've ever heard in my life. Ugh. Just.....ugh. Read more

In my opinion, yeah. Racing around in the RC car and jumping through the kitchen on hamburgers while you're shrunk is creative and fun, there's some good jokes in there that play on action movie stereotypes (like the EDF captain who curses every 3rd word), the weapons are varied and fun (like the freeze and shrink Read more

The PC version is awesome, and if you can get past the load times and downgraded textures, so is the 360 port. Read more

The guy who does pinstripes for my dealership is amazing. I should post some pictures. Read more

I think it's funny how people think big oil is so evil, but don't realize that fuel only makes up a small percentage of their business. Without the oil companies, everything from plastics to microchips to rubber wouldn't exist, nor would 90% of our consumer products. Read more

The skull of Mondain was doing it long before 2006. Read more
