Duke Nukem Forever!
I think Gearbox have approached this as if it was an FPS released in the mid 90s, so it's going to be nothing but mindless, profanity-laden shooty fun.
It's just...I can't help but shake the feeling that pigs are flying and Hell has indeed frozen over. Duke Nukem Forever, given a concrete release date for the first time EVER. My God...

So the demo is available to people who pre-ordered it or got Borderlands GotY edition. Anyway suffice to say I no longer have it pre-ordered.
2 weapon limit, atrocious framerate problems, kinda crappy graphics, unfunny jokes, awful field of view, appalling driving sections.
All I can hope is that the demo build was of a really early version, but I'm not going to hold my breath and will wait until I can get it cheap.
edit: I forgot the load times! They're also really bad with no indication of how much longer it has.

There's a rumour flying around that Gearbox pooped out Forever because that was the condition of getting the Duke Nukem IP and that their Duke Nukem interpretation is actually much more awesome and will be released later.
Seems like a flimsy excuse to me

I'm trying to not be too hard on Gearbox for this shitheap. They basically just finished off what they were given and wanted to stick to 3DRealms original vision and design choices, and well, y'know, 3DRealms.
If Gearbox do decide to do their own Duke it will probably be a much better game, still won't be funny though. Would rather them finish off Colonial Marine then get started on Borderlands 2 before they waste their time with another Duke.

Truth be told I've never liked Duke Nukem, it's crass, OTT and totally unfunny.
