Nostalgia: Duke Nukem


This one comes simultaneously with the news that Duke Nukem: Forever, is actually going to be coming out after all. slated for 2011. No shit right? Source
Big news. Huge news in fact. The problem is a lot of people are going to be disappointed when this game comes out and it doesn't change lives. Nostalgia coupled with hype is a bad thing. Unlike Mario games which have been shat out by Nintendo every day, peoples nostalgia boils at a steady mediocre. the Duke soup on the other hand has been left to stew over a million volcanoes. Every game has changed remarkably. Starting with the beloved 2D ones, which my brother still does speed runs on, to 3D with titties, to 2.5D in Manhattan project (Which isn't to great really.)

Even if the new game bombs, I don't care. Duke will always be cool. His shit don't stink.
