After the Aliens game they released, I think it'd be better for them to stay away from Duke Nukem if they plan to somehow brighten up their image.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Looking through a list of games Gearbox has worked on, I can say that the best game they have ever worked on was Half-Life: Opposing Force.


Which, for the record, is a commercial Half-Life mod released in 1999.

You know, for all the shit Gearbox has done lately I'm struggling to see what they actually did wrong here. They got sold the Duke Nukem license, realized it was still getting used without their permission anyway whether through intention or ignorance, and rightfully took steps to correct that - I know I'd be pretty pissed off if I were in their shoes.

If anyone, blame Apogee/3DRealms for being stupid enough to give them the IP to start with.

Hey Hey Hey, Gearbox made Halo Custom Edition, which had more ways to kill a Rec than you could shake a stick at.

Didn't they lose the license to Duke? It doesn't make much sense for another company to just up and start making a new game out of the blue without permission, not even considering whether someone else owns the IP or not. I dunno, this just seems like there's more to it than 3DRealms being too dumb to realise they sold Duke and can't use it anymore.

Nobody wants to see a movie about the corporate side of the consoles wars, that's what documentaries on the internet are for. Besides, we have World War Blue if we ever want to relive the console wars of the 90's.

If it's a Seth Rogan film, it'll probably take a good number of liberties from the book and be a comedy rather than a straight adaptation.

Plus there's the Hyperdimension Neptunia series if one really wants to poke fun at the console wars.

Hyperdimension Neptunia was kind of crap too last I heard, though.

The first game had a crappy combat system, yeah. The story was decent and it definitely poked quite a lot of fun at everything, including itself at times. MkII has a vastly improved gameplay system and a better, if anvilicious storyline regarding piracy, and Victory improves the formula even further to where it's actually reasonable. Plus the first two are being remade on the PSVita with the third game's battle system so they wouldn't be quite so grating on that front.

Oh, so now I learn about this, after only just buying mk2 a week ago. Man, my timing is terrible D:

I still haven't gotten my hands on Victory yet. Didn't have the money for it when it came out and I haven't seen it anywhere since. All this aside, I found the first game to be enjoyable, but I wouldn't say its battle system is bad, just confusing as all fuck. Though I guess that's enough to call it a bad system.
