"Duke, the situation has deteriorated..."

Hello Rockview · 09-26-2005, 10:35 PM

"...it appears they have the President."

(from the DNF trailer obviously)

I love over the top storylines like this. Sort of like a throwback to the old SNES plots like "ninjas kidnapped the president!" But yea, whenever I get pissed at how long it's taken for this game to come out (I can't believe I was in grade school when this game started development, I'm now a freshmen in college), I just watch that trailer and it reminds me DNF is going to be totally badass. Keeping chugging along George and team.

If that storyline still exists, let's hope the games is released AFTER a new president worth saving has been sworn in.

I second that.

Xgthug · 09-27-2005, 04:26 AM

The game is based in the future anyway,
so you demacraps need not worry about having to save Bush.

Otto von Keisinger · 09-27-2005, 08:10 AM

I don't suppose for the sake of everyone's sanity I can ask that this thread doesn't deteriorate into a worthless political thread?

Joe Siegler · 09-27-2005, 09:55 AM

So you want it to be Escape from New York, eh? Duke has to go in and save the President?

Would make for an interesting joke if Isaac Hayes comes out and tries to go "I'm the Duke of New York". Duke Nukem would have something to say about that.

X-Vector · 09-27-2005, 10:08 AM

Now there's an idea...

Would probably go over the head of the majority of players though.
After all, the movie will be 25+ years old by the time the game comes out.

Nope.

Ryanthelurkster · 09-27-2005, 07:22 PM

holy crap that looks like an older duke!!!

oak man · 09-27-2005, 07:33 PM

quick question: how old is duke? he looks to me like he's in his early 40's.

-i know how long APOGEE has been making duke-

Haha, I thought you made the picture but after that comment I checked back and realized it's from that ninja president game you all talked about. Yea, I thought it looked like Duke

What a line though ..."are you a bad enough dude"...

Water12356 · 09-28-2005, 01:15 PM

Well u already had to save the president in "Duke it out in DC." So new storyline maybe?

Kristian Joensen · 09-28-2005, 01:43 PM

Duke it out in DC is a side story and not nearly as immersive/epic as we can expect DNF's to be, certainly not when compared to the E3 2001 trailer.

Not really a whole lot of a choice if everyone slanders you.

Don't pretend it's simply lack of originality that's causing you to be offended.

If it's set in the future does that mean Arnold will be theguy Duke's trying to save ?

I'd prefer a completely fictional character, and Duke can save him only if he has spare time after saving the babes first.

No, no, no! Duke meeting & saving Arnold! Think of the possibilities!!

Idea for a mock movie poster based on that dynamic duo: "Twins 2: Twins Forever, coming to a movie theatre near you WID!"

Raeyl · 09-30-2005, 08:23 AM

So, Duke is a Bad Dudes rip-off?

I'd prefer governement conspiracy than save the president kind of thing..

Duke does make references to "pig cops" and the so great "bubble gum part" from the movie They live.. so close to perfection

KaiserSoze · 10-03-2005, 04:04 PM

i think the storyline of dnf involves robots, pig cops, clones, guns, boobs and lots of explosions.

am i close?
