The editors liked
Lots of old school heart and soul
Main campaign is fun
More pop culture and video game references than an episode of the GameSpy Debriefings.
It's no longer vaporware. Good for some genuine laughs. Highly interactive world.
It's fun to shrink enemies and stomp on them.
The editors didn't like
Poor design decisions
Laggy multiplayer
Graphically unimpressive
Annoying difficulty spikes
Takes a while to get going
Long console load times.
Antiquated design
Game play. "Innovations" grow old quickly. Less distinctive than previous Duke Nukem games
Abstract: It's important to remember something any time you put a disc in your PlayStation 3, grip your controller and prepare yourself for what you are about to experience: games are supposed to be games. They can be other things that today's gamer seems to cra...
Abstract: Duke Nukem Forever is a game that, by all accounts, should never have seen the light of day beyond closed-door previews at long past E3s and brief playable level sections on a handful of programmers’ computers after the downfall of its primary develope...

Can Duke Nukem Forever make a competitor to highly professional titles such as Battlefield, Call of Duty and Crysis? Well, no. It does not even come close to these recognized bestsellers. The new game in the Duke Nukem series does not even try to comp...
It's no longer vaporware. Good for some genuine laughs. Highly interactive world.
Antiquated design, game play. "Innovations" grow old quickly. Less distinctive than previous Duke Nukem games, other modern shooters.
With the release of Duke Nukem Forever, one of the longest-running jokes of the gaming industry has at last received its punch line. But most gamers, even longtime Duke Nukem fans, will wonder what all the fuss was about. Buy it now...
Long, boring platforming and driving sections, The shooting lacks impact, Ugly visuals and jerky frame rates, Short levels separated by long loading screens, Fails to be shocking, sexy, or funny.
The bland and ugly Duke Nukem Forever turns a famous gaming icon into an embarrassment....
Abstract: You've met Duke Nukem, or at least people like him. You may run into him when you go back home to the town where you went to high school. While the rest of his cohort has moved on with their lives, going to new and interesting places, Duke Nukem is put...
