Duke Nukem 3D Dated And Trailer-fied [Update]
After seeing the 3D Realms E3 video, I was convinced that nothing could ever top the power of the dancing logo. I was wrong. Take one part dancing logo, smash together with a heavy metal soundtrack, add a huge pile of new features to classic Duke, and then pimp its nearly imminent release for download. If that sounds like the gates to happy kingdom you better get some points right quick. Duke Nukem 3D will release on September 24th. You've got a week to prepare yourself for classic Duke on steroids. (Is that redundant?)
8-player Xbox Live multiplayer, death prevention through time manipulation, user clip sharing...I might actually have to purchase this game. Anyone else?

[Update]: It appears Duke is going solo this week and comes in at 800 MSP.

Sweet, game is only gonna be 800 pts as per Major Nelson. It's a total must-buy for me!

Just playing through Doom right now, which is still very good :) 800 MSP is too much for me just now though - maybe I'll wait to see if it drops to 400 like Doom did :)

Doom on the controller works great since it is really a 2D game, but Quake 2 and Marathon on 360 both use emulated mouse controls which translate poorly to the analog sticks.
I am am curious if they have better emulation for the camera control in this release.
