"Balls of Steel" special edition. The only reason I won't be buying it directly off Steam.

Oh, and it will be linked to your Steam account, for those who are anti-steam. (I personally don't like it, but I live with it)

For the 100$ one gets (at least down under):

Collectible bust of the man himself
Numbered, limited-edition certificate of authenticity
100-page hardcover book: The History, Legacy & Legend of Duke Nukem Forever Art
from the Vault
Duke Nukem Forever postcard series
Duke Nukem Forever radioactive emblem sticker
Duke Nukem Forever collectable comic book
Duke Nukem Forever foldable paper craft
Duke Nukem Forever poker chips
Duke Nukem Forever mini-card deck
Duke Nukem Forever radioactive emblem dice

This is available for PC, PS3 and 360.

Damn straight I'm heading down to ebgames

FOX news, the walking contradiction. they're all about the government staying out of everyone's lives until they find something "morally objectional" (by their standards) and then they're all about banning everything.

if they neuter the nudity i'll be unhappy.

It's been stated a few times officially, they arn't cutting anything out. They got some flack in Australia because of it (from the guv), that's their problem.

If your getting you're jollies from a video game, you need a lesson in how to use the internet.

Days...mere days! I was still on the fence, but as soon as I saw duke pick up a piece of poo multiple times and have him comment on it differently each time....SOLD!

Yowza, that's some harsh words, I'm guessing it was written by a feminist. Apparently most of the issues that reviewers used a console port.

i tried this last night and the game messed up big time graphically. It probably had a few corrupt files or something.

I did find some of it funny, some of it gross-but funny and after a few minutes the game became unplayable.

I'm waiting for the demo to be released to us poor peons.

CMDR Steve-O · **Posted:** Tue Jun 14, 2011 4:44 pm

Stupid crapburst game, froze twice already for me just in the first level...I'm sure the thought was there as the execution certainly wasn't.

The Ars review sounds a lot like the Something Awful demo review from last week:

http://www.somethingawful.com/d/news/du ... m-demo.php

Quote:

Duke Nukem Forever swipes concepts from popular modern titles and crams them together without considering how the elements work together. The result is a unique version of the kitchen sink approach in which the developer adds infinite kitchen sinks without a kitchen counter or plumbing and hopes for the best.

My condolences to all who lost money on this.

Terrible... gameplay blows, graphically it's really pretty 'meh'....

Got it leaked to me on the 9th, beat it one sitting. It's entertaining and not without it's flaws or merits, but certainly not worth $50 or the time it took to make it.

It's still Duke though, and my attention was held mainly due to his mid 90's personality and one-liners.

Bosses were creative and fun, but animations could sometimes be "not polished" (I remember a scene where I destroyed a spacecraft and it just broke into 2 pieces and formed a bridge.

I'd give it a 7.0.

But for us old school gamers it's worth the "download" if not just to re-live the memories of yesteryear.
