I'll believe it when I actually see it.

Shake it baby!

i can believe it, development was taken over and didn't they have a playable demo at pax?

Nothing will be able to live up to the legacy of duke 3d though, imo.

Duke 3D was epic.

I heard there were several playable demos of it in back rooms at CES.

So I always thought that when this did eventually come out I'd have no interest in playing it. That trailer though... I may have to reconsider.

That trailer was bad ass. I knew there was a reason I bought that graphics card.

Gearbox is pretty legit, so I have no doubts it's coming out. I'm just wondering if we'll have rechargeable shields and driving akin to Halo again like in Borderlands.

I think any game sets itself up for failure these days if they don't implement the rechargeable shields. The kiddies just don't know how to manage a health bar anymore. For a totally over the top action game can't say I mind it. Been playing a bit of Vanquish lately and that game would blow without rechargeable health.

I fucking hate regenerating health in an FPS. There were a great many things about it which sucked, but nothing did more to ruin the new Goldeneye Wii than that retarded regenerating health mechanic.

IMO the trailer looked terrible. Doom 3 era graphics, the driving looking like something out of a Nintendo 64 game, and lame shock value gimmicks. I'm sure it will be fun, but it looked far from a big budget developer's title from that trailer.

That is from the unpolished playable game they had back in October I believe. The final version should have the graphics updated. Duke was always about the shock value gimmicks. That seems to do well these days.

Oh I've played all the Duke games including the side scroller

It just seemed like this trailer put too much emphasis on it.
