      Oh my God. Wow. This was just brilliant. As it begun, I started scratching my head at the things taking place in Duke's stead, thinking "Wait... wasn't this supposed to be some what-if doom-and-gloom scenario??? What's going on? The aliens are good guys?" But by the time I got to the 6th or 7th page, I realized... this was a masterfully crafted commentary on the nature of Duke Nukem Forever's treatment, development, public perception, and eventual release. It is quite a splendid example of that adage "Artists lie to tell the truth." Instead of merely saying the things regarding Duke that we've all heard tirelessly before... he was played out, outdated, the pursuit of his game so far gone as to be beyond the scope of reason, etc., you reversed the Duke's own flaws in on himself to craft one of the best satirical narrative pieces I've read in some time... and at once point out quite hilariously how the game itself did so to disastrous effect here in real life. Bravo.

      if? then - opponents of Duke Nukem would be pointing a finger, ignoring their own problem, attempting promotion of their own truth, while intentionally ostracising one withstanding character; which, in turn, would be feeding the hopeless to the politicians, feeding the helpless to the alien hive, and otherwise perpetuating some unholy new world order? =) game_over (=

      Being honest with the press about why you do what you do. +1 of the things that Gearbox are doing right. On the other hand, it'd be nice to have the option to play the game on another console, even if it's a direct port with nothing OMGworthy. Guess it's just not worth it business-wise, oh well.

      Why does every developer insist upon adding some sort of stupid gimmick to wii/wii-U ports? Haven't they broken and destroyed enough otherwise fine ports with stupid wii-specific nonsense? Isn't the idea of releasing a good game to as many people as possible a good idea anymore? The challenge is there, but if the game is just as good on all systems it's released for, there's the prospect of more profit. Why leave a perfectly capable system and a load of prospective buyers and fans in the dust just because you can't come up with some half-assed unnecessary minigames or something stupid like that? It seems utterly counter-productive.
