What i've seen of its current incarnation judging by 'holy crap i played it i am a god' photo snaps, it's third-rate Halo. You even hold down buttons to pick up weapons on the ground.
We probably have a few PAX attendies from here to say some 'f you your wrong' or something. A Xbox360-designed title took away all the promised sophistication on gameplay I was looking forward to in 1997-2001.

I know FrikaC made a cgi-bin version of the quakec interpreter once and wrote part of his website in QuakeC

I'm actually quite looking forward to it. I'm a mite cynical about the premise, and arriving in the same year as Rage means that there are going to be inevitable comparisons (like I said, mixture of shooting and driving, post-apocalyptic wasteland, etc etc etc), but done is done so far as that's concerned. I do wish that specific part of it wasn't happening as things are going to get a little tiresome, but overall Duke is one of the iconic franchises and it'll be good to have him back.
It certainly took some major guts on the part of Gearbox to pick up this title, so yes, I genuinely do wish them well with it. Negativity - well, let's see - it strikes me that the people being most negative about this are the same people who are generally negative about everything on here - like the recent "GPL Doom 3 won't happen" thing. So be it, some people are just like that.
Given the fiasco that has been DNF to date, even releasing the thing will be a success, but reading stuff on other sites gives a pretty clear indication that the Gearbox folks are determined to make this something better. So what if the gameplay style doesn't suit everyone - nobody said that studios HAD to make games explicitly for YOU. There are plenty of other options out there so pick one of those instead.
