What the fuck at this four page instruction manual where on page one it tells me to "download the complete manual!". Is this standard 2k practice now or were they feeling extra cheap?

Delivery may be different, but so is the sound engine. Duke3d was running on an engine were voices were not perfectly clear.
I'm buying this game when it goes on sale. Bad reviews or not, I gotta play it, and judge it my self. Some of the scores I'm seeing are a bit laughable.

Everyone is doing this now. The Mortal Kombat and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood "manuals" were like that.

Is that Slash000s?
It's funny that Guns N' Roses has broken up like 3 times since he slapped down that pre-order.

They didn't. Gamestop HQ told all stores to honor the pre-order slips, no matter how old.

I think the 'manual' for Alice: Madness Returns is basically just a piece of paper, printed in black and white, telling you that the manual can be found on the disk. I miss the elaborate manuals from the days of old :|

Don't worry, Randy Pitchford confirmed at the Gearbox Community event that Gus the miner will be back!
I don't know if he meant in a DLC episode or a sequel though ...
Played a couple of levels yesterday but not digging it at all. I don't like the feel of the weapons, the movement, the driving, the level design etc. Everything feels off somehow. I kinda like the new liztroopers that can teleport though... other than that a big fat "meh" so far.

Reminds me, I was looking at the Final Fantasy XIII manual the other day (PS3 version), and even though I'm not keen on the game and haven't liked a FF since the SNES ones, the manual is awesome. Really colourful and thick.
And on a similar topic, the manual for Zelda OOT 3DS is utter, utter shit. It's like one of those fold out posters you got with SNES and GB games that advertised other titles - the original N64 one was great.
Been playing it and I just finished the Duke burger levels. (PC version)
It's all right, it's keeping my interest which I couldn't say for Black ops, Bulletstorm and Halo reach. It's no where near bad as reviewers are making it out to be.
2/10 and 3/10 are scores you give to games that are broken as fuck and nearly unplayable. DNF isn't that.

I doubt they'd ever be able to officially release something like that, as it would not be usable by the average person, but it would be neat if someone would leak some of that stuff to us. At least something along the lines of the Doom 3 leak (which was fascinating to look at and very different from the final game).Shiggy said:

Time ta STEP IT UP
Grand Theft Auto lets you murder police officers -- Modern Warfare 2 disguises you as a terrorist and you kill innocent civilians in an airport. These are two of the most notorious franchises in gaming history.
But let's dismiss Duke Nukem because the developers added a touch of rape to the game.

The correct thing is to acknowledge that Modern Warfare 2 and GTA should have been criticized also, not letting Duke of the hook because of previous errors.

And with that the game is outta my hdd and off to the nearest Gamestop. Made it until Dam Top chapter and the Battlelord fight. After a while of hitting my head to the brick wall I realized that I haven't had a single second of fun with the game. My time is more precious than this shit.

You won't be missing much. The rest of the game is some ugly corridors, an underwater level, and a rehashed final boss.

That particular section of the Hyve level is rather disturbing, but not for reasons of taste. I couldn't care less about "taste" in this context. What I found disturbing was this sense of implied rape violence that really came out of nowhere at that point in the campaign and is not repeated anywhere else in the game.
It's somewhat unfortunate (as a level theme), because the level itself does have some gameplay additions that also are not repeated anywhere else in the game.

I have to randomly comment and say the MP map rendition of Hollywood Holocaust is one of the saddest things I've seen in awhile. =/

Yeah it's bizarre, I hopped into a private match just to look at it (I don't usually play MP but Jeff on Giant Bomb said it was really weird). I guess the conceit was that someone turned that street into a paintball arena? Why would they do that instead of just recreating that part of the original level faithfully?Space A Cobra said:

I got to return my copy back to Redbox soon but from what I played it was pretty fun. The first thing I noticed was how little gun fighting there was throughout the beginning which was fine by me. Spoilers for the first bit of the game ahead...
Driving around with the RC car was fun. I laughed when I ran into enemies and they held their foot up in pain, I crashed into a wall and it cracked which I thought was a nice touch, no load times when you mess up in the RC was really great as I fell in pits a few times. Humor was fun, graphics were good and bad, and overall I've been having a fun time just going through the game. Sad thing is I get a little dizzy playing it but I think that's just me getting older.
It definitely isn't an F game, a 3.3 game or whatever other bashing reviews are giving it. It seems like a solid 6 or 7 to me. I wouldn't have much of a problem putting down $60 for it. Not every FPS game needs to replace other FPS games.

so i tried starting a game on "damn i'm good" off a "bet" from a friend. if i get a platinum on this shit game (my only other platinums are yakuza 3 and 4 haha), he will get a platinum on darksiders, a game we both agree is a piece of shit and would be awful completing 100%
i got to the mothership boss. one hit kills from the drop ship lasers! i gave it a good 20 tries and realized it's completely ridiculous and i am tapping out. you can barely kill one ship before the next one shows up. then the fucking triple ships!
no more! to the guy who got the platinum, kudos to you! holy shit i had no idea it would be so awfully brutal.
if you want to get the pinball 1,000,000 do the following
get the ball on the top left pin, and tap the pin so it hits the key targets, if the ball bounces too far just tilt left and it will catch on the pin if you are holding it. just keep catching and lobbing the ball up hitting the 3 tiles and it will happen. it's still a janky piece of shit pinball machine though.
