Duke Nukem Forever

[Badnik Mechanic]

Balls of Steel confirmed for Game.

But theres no price yet... hmmm I think I might get my name down for Zavvi just incase these really are all place holder prices.

[Detective Shadzter]

Looks like TheHut group's prices were placeholders. They've all gone up £5 now, except the PS3 version at ASDA, Best Buy, WH Smith, Woolworths and SendIt, which has gone up £10. It's only gone up £5 at TheHut and Zavvi.

Just seen Gearbox update there Twitter with a Pre-order bonuses when you Pre order for the game...I'll leave these as you can tell they are USA bonuses here hoping europe get some too maybe something better .

I want that HAT!! and here hoping this DLC goes on to the Marketplace after release than being a DLC pre order bonus I'd love to see Big Head Mode for the enemies

Been trying to pre order the DNF Balls of Steal special edition (I felt so stupid saying that in front of 12 year olds in the store XD) at Game Station but haven't got the code or something for the game yet to put my pre order down So I'll have to try again sometime this week .

I wonder if the preorder recipts for the game's first announcement have dissolved by now.

Also, I don't know if it's been posted yet, but...

[Badnik Mechanic]

Game.co.uk have finally priced their Balls of Steel edition... and as expected it's a complete rip off..

PS3/360 = £75!!!

PC = £60!!

Fucking hell!!! £15 more expensive than other online stores!?

Gamestation will most likely follow suit with that one.

But you know whats annoying? You can bet that if theres pre-order bonus' for the UK, then game/gamestation will be the ones who bag them.

Kind of cool. I am surprised that she didn't mention the IGN article.

ShopTo offers free exclusive Duke Nukem Talking Keyring with pre-orders

Just noticed this in an e-mail ShopTo sent me. For some reason you can only get this when pre-ordering the standard game and not the Balls of Steel edition.

Anyone going PAX East next month ? if so good you could possibly get to play Duke Nukem Forever demo there the lucky sods .

[goku262002]

wait wal-mart and gamestop are teaming up? what?!

sooo...shouldn't that sub-title be changed now? i mean were waaaaaaay past the 3D realms vs. take two thing.

[Shaddix Leto Croft]

wait wal-mart and gamestop are teaming up? what?!

Lolwat it's just pre order bonuses for Duke Nukem Forever from the retailers, They are not teaming up (to take over the world) XD

Oh and Gearbox Software are looking for people who contributed to Duke Nukem Forever to add to the credits...yep that many people who worked on it that they can't remember who worked on it all these years so I expect a very very long credits ending of DNF then

Walmart and Gamestop teaming up isn't that bad. Now Wal*Mart and Tesco/Microsoft? Then you better start getting worried.

Hopefully the hardworking people who made Duke Nukem Forever a reality will get their 5 seconds in the sunlight, even if it is in scrolling text format.

Also £75?! Wow, I wouldn't pay that for any game, even ones that I waited (13?) odd years for. =O

[Swiss]

I'm just wondering, it doesn't seem like there's much from stopping just any old person sending in some well made-up details to get their name in the credits...

I think I'll just be buying the normal game, but I am likely to cave and get the BoS Edition nearer the time. D:

ESRB Ratings Summary is in, and it sadly seems that children will be unable to partake in the greatness of Duke. Yes, amazingly, DNF has been Rated "M" for Mature.

Duke Nukem Forever ESRB rating confirms strippers, head-stabbing, implied sex acts, and thrown feces

Can you believe a Duke game got an M rating?

Duke Nukem Forever is nearly 14 years old, but it’ll need to wait a few more years before it’s allowed to buy itself according to the ESRB. Yes, believe it or not DNF got an M rating from the US ratings board ESRB, which shocks no one, but the description of the crazy crap that’s in the game might as well be an ad for the Duke’s next title.

Proving that “mature” doesn’t always equate to “grown-up,” here’s a sampling of what Forever has in store according to the ESRB's warnings. But look out for SPOILERS!!!!

Strippers!

“During the course of the game, players enter a strip-club level and view several topless dancers and receive lap dances.”

Porn!

“A couple of missions within this level require players to recover sex toys and pictures of topless women.”

Implied blow jobs!

“… two women appear to perform fellatio on the central character (e.g., raising their heads from his lap)—though there is no actual depiction of the sex act…”

Glory holes!

“Duke moans and leans up against the wall of a bathroom stall (furnished with a hole)…”

Poopoo and Peepee!

“Bathroom humor includes the ability to urinate in toilets or urinals and/or pick up feces from toilets and throw it against walls.”

Steroids!

“Players can use both steroid pills and beer as power-ups…”

And more! You know what? Just read the full description for all the really gory, head exploding details.

Rating: Mature

Content descriptors: Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Mature Humor, Nudity, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, Use of Drugs and Alcohol

Rating summary: This is a first-person shooter in which players assume the role of Duke Nukem, an action hero who must save Earth from invading aliens. Players use pistols, rail guns, shotguns, explosives, and Duke's bare hands to attack and kill the alien enemies. The majority of gameplay involves destroying these enemies in frenetic gun and laser battles in order to move on to the next section. Aliens are often decapitated or dismembered when hit, sending large splashes of blood across the ground, surrounding walls, and players' screen. Some sequences depict more 'over-the-top' instances of violence: aliens getting stabbed in the head or impaled; a human soldier bursting into bloody gibs after being tossed through propeller blades. In one sequence, players have the ability to shoot human characters that are trapped in pod-like alien webbing; bodies explode into pieces upon impact. During the course of the game, players enter a strip-club level and view several topless dancers and receive lap dances. A couple of missions within this level require players to recover sex toys and pictures of topless women. A few sequences strongly imply sexual acts: two women appear to perform fellatio on the central character (e.g., raising their heads from his lap)—though there is no actual depiction of the sex act; Duke moans and leans up against the wall of a bathroom stall (furnished with a hole)—it is implied that a sex act (not depicted) occurs. The game also contains several sexual references and innuendo in the dialogue (e.g., 'I have hungry—you have big egg ro' for me, Duke,' 'If you supply the dancing, I'll supply the pole,' and 'I'll need something naughty to play with.'). Duke's comments range from jokes about colon cleansing to several one-liners about sex and female body parts. Bathroom humor includes the ability to urinate in toilets or urinals and/or pick up feces from toilets and throw it against walls. Players can use both steroid pills and beer as power-ups; when beer is consumed, the screen temporarily blurs. The words 'f**k,' 'sh*t,' 'c*ck,' and 'a*shole' appear in dialogue and on-screen text.

Linky.

They need a new rating. Rated "F" for FUCK YEAH!

HOLY SHIT! TORNADO's BACK!

Oh it's not rated M for Mature, hell no, we're past that... It's RATED M FOR MANLY!

[Vec]

So is this saying that this game is too much for an M?

Then it should be rated BS for Balls of Steel

Plus 1 to you for the awesome scans Dean

[Blacklightning]

Capture the Babe? Somehow I actually didn't see that coming, and yet that's still typical Duke Nukem of them. Only thing that could make that more complete is a quickie sex scene after every cap. *shot*

[Vec]

Rated TM for Too Manly

Please ESRB! Make this real!

What I can say seeing all this is Call of Duty: Rated P for Pussies

[Solid SOAP]

This sounds like perfect, stupid, FPS fun, I am so game. I can't wait to pick this up on release day, multiplayer sounds like a total blast.
