Just took em a while You're thinking of Duke Nukem Forever. That being said, $10 to add online play to an old classic isn't exactly just the latest eye candy.

Dante Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Well.. sort of. I mean Duke Nukem 3D has been in dev or what.. 10 years now? So they started it not long after the original. Just took em a while Honestly don't believe that game is going to arrive. I think its vaporware. But vid games have been into sequels for a long time now. How many versions of Final Fantasy are there? Consoles are really bad for this. Original games like Bioshock, Crysis are hard to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 Original games like Bioshock, Crysis are hard to come by. Bioshock is spiritual sequal to System Shock (mid 90s DOS game) and is built on the Unreal engine Crysis on the other hand is an original storyline and engine, but dervies alot of its gameplay from Far Cry. Crysis was also announced to be the first part of a trilogy - so like Duke Nukem, Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, etc there's going to be sequals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yall Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 http://www.3drealms.com/news/2008/08/duke_...d_for_xbla.htmlhttp://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=195374 Video game industry is becoming more and more like the movie industry. Just find a popular old title and recycle it with the latest eye candy I think your ire is unwarranted, at least in the case of Wolfenstein. There have been a ton of games in that 'series' going back to the Apple days and each title has been great, up to and including ET and the last Xbox version. I've been pining for a 360 Wolfenstein for some time now. I don't see it as a simple cash grab, especially since id is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they seem to have the top ten bass ackwards though. No way Halo and GoldenEye are 1 and 2. More like Half Life 2 and Duke Nuke em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
