Duke Nukem really hasn’t aged well in the post-metoo era… I mean, Duke Nukem 3d was about a testosterone-heavy jock with guns and rocket launchers saving hookers, stripers and pole dancers from alien invaders while smoking and swearing and generally acting offensive (like taking a dump down a decapitated alien’s

Yeah, I feel like that’s a weird choice of dig. I knew tons of people who played Duke and they certainly weren’t ALL nerds.

IGN For Men?

It could work... but only if it’s a straight up parody. If they play it serious, instead of tongue-in-cheek, oh boy... I guess it’ll be the Morbius of its day.

Peacemaker (I’ve only seen the first episode) seems to be Duke Nukem if Duke was a really dumb, cringey guy who lives in a pathetic disgusting trailer and instead of being a badass hero just like...kills a lot of people, and also has a super racist dad.

I had the original side-scrolling Duke Nukem as a kid. As for the movie, it should absolutely lean into 80s tropes and camp. Trying to make Duke a serious character is a massive mistake.

Step 1: Install tampermonkey/greasemonkey.

Curious— why don’t you use EGS? I can’t think of any reason to not use both EGS and Steam— even if you only use EGS for the free games (they gave out the Bioshock collection last week!).

Well, at least among nerdy households.

I feel like Duke Nukem kinda just sucks as a character... but if they lean into him being a cringey tough guy stereotype but have him actually have the skills to pull off crazy shit to save the day it could be fun. I was also thinking John Cena could be fun in the role but now that I think of it maybe I should just

Am I the only one who has the Comments section cut off on slideshows (Firefox)? If I type past 4 lines, even the “publish” button disappears behind the page footer. Even when I narrow the page so all the slides appear at once.

They already made a great Duke Nukem movie: it’s called Last Action Hero

Sure. At this point, why not? Not like it’ll tarnish the brand.

Someone who thinks grown men screaming like children on the internet should be ignored and not given money.  

I’m sure he is going to make that back and some extra just from all the attention he is getting from doing this. The amount of support subs and donations will cover his expense easily.

Imagine fate giving you one of the coolest accents on the planet and you take that gift and use it to scream like a child on Twitch.  I kinda wish he lost another 10k

Just from that linked clip he seems so obnoxious I’d almost enjoy if he lost everything on this…

Yea sorry, fuck this game. One of the only games (mmm...THE only game) I’ve refused to buy from Blizzard.

You might be sarcastic here but I would watch the shit out of a season of Legends of Tomorrow structured around a nostalgic gameshow.

Wasn’t the other Legends show cancelled because they couldn’t continue using their set or something? Seems like the obvious solution would have been to just combine these two shows.
