Well, I say who gives a fuck. We don't. Shackers don't.
We pretty much know what Duke is, what it should be, and what it will most likely be when we play it.
When we fucking play it.
12 months ago - I'd have laughed in your face and told your mother to shake it baby if you'd tried to tell me we'd be actually playing duke this year.
The reviews can go fuck themselves.
I'm almost certain I'm going to have a tonne of fun playing duke. And I'm pretty sure most duke fans on the shack will too. Reviews don't really matter. It's duke :(

at the same time, it's not a terribly complex game. it came out at a time when key hunts were the norm, there was no real narrative outside of end-of-episode cutscenes and whatever was in the manual (even then, pretty slim in Duke 3D), and you really just blew shit up and killed motherfuckers until you hit the exit sign. There was replayability in finding secret areas and running the levels faster, but that was it. that's ok, because it was good enough then and somehow that game is still a hell of a lot of fun now.
...but that's not what people seem to want, even though they keep asking for it. i don't think people know what they want. I think what people really want is something like Saint's Row with Duke Nukem as the main character (kind of like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivd7J28Cu38 ), because people sure seem to love to bitch when they get a classic style FPS not named Painkiller or Serious Sam.
