Finished DNF last night with 700 achievement points. Epic old school action! Going to trade it into EB for Child of Eden and pick it up again later when it hits bargain bin prices (won't be long). Doing it this way I bizarrely end up paying only $4 to experience DNF (paid $89 for DNK, EB offer $82 credit until 16/06, Child of Eden costs $79). Win! :D

lol, well there's this big muscly pig right? And he isn't very nice because he jumps out from a corner oinking "Suprise attack!". And then I was like, woah :eek: And then I thought he could do with some iron in his diet and proceeded to feed it to him en masse. :D I think he overate though because he wasn't moving much afterwards. :(

When I re-buy it for $30 or so, indeed I shall! Hard is the perfect difficulty in my eyes, it's tough in places but when you die it never feels like it's because the game is being cheap. Like good old Demons Souls! :D Having said that, one boss fight near the end with basically no cover and tonnes of re-spawning baddies had me thinking otherwise at the time...

You're pretty much right at the end Autocon (you've probably finished it as we speak :p)! How are you and everyone else enjoying it? Anyone else as stumped as I am with the scores this game is getting? Really hope Gearbox give us a sequel (in a timely manner!).

When I finally get a copy, I'll tell you. :p

I agree with you on the scores it's getting - WTF did people think they were getting?, All Gearbox did was dust this Old Game they found off and then whacked a sticker on it and released it. :rolleyes:
It can't and shouldn't be compared to contemporary games, Haters will be haters but at least hate something for legitimate reasons :mad: - I just say Gearbox had better follow it up, they'd be stupid not to. ;):cool:

I watched good game with special guest the Chaser Guy and they gave it 8s. Except chaser didnt like the loading times for 360 lol so gave it a score of 5.

I passed the boss. Now running which I hate in games :rolleyes::o

And in real life I suspect!;)

I am quite enjoying it, I haven't laughed from a game this much since.. Hmmm, no too sure to be honest, a while at the very least.

I too wondered about the reviews situation, you can tell from the NPC models alone that this is an old game. Sheesh. Just enjoy it for the gameplay.

I tell ya, back when I was loading games off of tape on my C64, there wasn't half as much whinging about graphics like there is now.

Things I like and have noticed, but probably shouldn't admit.
The golden statues aren't missing any pieces.;)
Duke's main 2 babes, the Holsome twins don't wear pants...:o:p:rolleyes:
Shotgun sounds awesome!
I really hate those damn Beserker Pigs!!!!:mad:

Do not like. That two weapon limit really kills it for me.
