Duke Nukem is taking a beating.

[Lørd Tøny]

Well no surprise here but it seems the reviews for Duke Nukem are not so great. I am glad I canceled my pre-order. I am better off pre-ordering Alice: Madness Returns.

It's not Duke if it's two weapons at a time.

Consoles. Ruining all the games.

They said:"Because we couldnt fit a way to get all the weapons from 1-9 on the console versisons, we made it so you can only carry two guns"

The current quote going around is

"Yeah, blame us for it if you want. It may change in the future and I don't know what will happen with it, but it was us. I stand by it too, as you cannot discount designing games for a modern world and part of that world is consoles where the bulk of the sales can be. And on those consoles you have a controller. We tried for a long time to support lots of guns but we simply could not find a nice way to map it to a controller, despite trying 4-5 designs. We gave it enough time and decided to stop swimming against the current and adopt what was basically the "standard". It's not 1996 anymore."
