Duke Nukem Manhattan Project on XBLA June 23rd - Page 4

GOGO · 07-12-2010, 07:17 AM

Just got the points I needed to download it. I have never played Manhatten Project before, but after beating the first couple of levels I definitely had a lot of fun. It just has all those classic Duke lines in there that you just can't help but smile when you hear them, eg "There's only two ways this can end, and in both of them you die!"

thunderPIN · 07-13-2010, 01:38 PM

WOW! I just witnessed the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. I was watching Reviews On the Run and Victor Lucas and Scott Jones reviewed Manhattan Project. Victor gave it a 0.5/10!!!!! What the hell was he smoking?? Scott gave it a 2/10. This is just absolutely pathetic. I know people are allowed to have their own opinions but that just made me throw up in my mouth. Sometimes here and there they do these reviews with games getting -0.5 scores and stuff like that which makes themselves look so very unprofessional. After seeing that I really have no interest in watching the program anymore lol. also to add insult to injury, Victor claimed Duke is dead and should not come back.

awesome the first duke nukem game i played now on the xbox sweet

.

SleazyCowboy · 07-14-2010, 06:01 AM

Because of the mentality of people today. People need to understand this game came out in the early 2000s! lol. As if its a new title. Its classic Duke and its great. I still havnt completed it.

Judging by that comment, I'd say he's biased in favor of someone other character. Master Chief, Gordon Freeman, Marcus Phoenix, Soap....take your pick. It just seems that an unbiased video gamer would never say a comment like that. Criticizing the game is one thing, but bashing the character is extremely uncalled for. The only excuse I see for it is that he's just a fanboy for some other video game character, and is just biased against Duke himself. Very unprofessional.

thunderPIN · 07-15-2010, 09:24 AM

Yeah I can answer that question for you. Victor is a big fanboy when it comes to anything Batman, Indiana Jones and Star Wars. I didn't really mind the show till I seen that review. Like, what is so bad about Manhattan Project that it deserves a 0.5/10? Nothing. It's not like the game is incomplete or has something wrong with it where it's not possible to complete the game. These guys just completely miss the point of a re-release of a 9 year old game for a value price of $10.

X-Vector · 07-16-2010, 04:29 AM

How is $10 a value price?

Manhattan Project was a budget game ($25) to begin with.
The PC version was on sale for $3-$5 over five years ago: http://forums.3drealms.com/vb/showthread.php?t=15568
It currently is sold as a downloadable version by 3DR and GoG for $6.
Also consider the games priced under €5 ($5 in the US?) in the Steam store and the much more recent and bigger titles going for €10 or less.

WarThrash · 07-16-2010, 08:18 AM

Because, as George stated, XBLA doesn't really sell games for less than $10 anymore. Probably because they usually have weekly sales where they cut down the price by half.

thunderPIN · 07-16-2010, 01:19 PM

Yeah exactly. 800 MS points is pretty reasonable for a new release XBLA game. I think 1200 points is usually the highest amount for a new release. If I'm wrong, somebody correct me.

Mighty Boot · 07-16-2010, 01:51 PM

I just can't justify the 10 dollar price tag no matter how you look at it and no matter what other games are sold for. I agree with every point X-Vector made. Even if I didn't already own the PC version, there just isn't a whole lot of value in this package. I'm not saying Manhattan Project isn't fun, I'm just saying that I might have bought it if it was only $5.

Duke 3D was worth $10 on XBLA. MP is not.

For any of you that wanted to see that horrendous review I was talking about here's the link:

http://www.reviewsontherun.com/watch/9/108/1/0

It's the first game that they review on the episode. I even posted a comment about my dislike of the review.

Jeager1999 · 08-03-2010, 05:43 PM

You can find compilations of his quotes on youtube except for the console games WFT? I liked hearing him say Lizard Lizard Lizard or So much for the new boots. Some one should do that, make a full compilation.

except if you buy a game on demand, you can select if you want to buy with points and they are around 34'000 points or more.

Trendnet18 · 08-24-2010, 03:03 AM

There have been talks about interest in porting Duke Nukem 3D and Manhatten Project to the PS3 but nothing concrete as of yet.

Kristian Joensen · 08-26-2010, 04:02 AM

Why? That makes no sense.

Steve · 08-27-2010, 08:40 PM

Yes it does. It's his version of "when hell freezes over"

Jeager1999 · 08-28-2010, 03:21 AM
