Yeah man, nothing can top Bauer.

I've seriously enjoyed every single episode of all 8 seasons, plus the bonus episodes. I can't say that about any other series I've watched. Ever. Not even any version of Star Trek or SG-1.

They're not remaking it, they're making Quake V more in the spirit of Quake 1.

www.stargate-fusion.com is all in French! :eek:

I know he's a sarcy bugger, but I'm not sure of the context that Richard Dean Anderson is holding that plate though. :confused:

Anyway, enough off topic, or the mods will moderate.

O'Neill and Teal'c are stuck in a time loop.

quote from bluesNews. Read it here.
His comments indicate that if this comes to pass, their leaning is towards a reboot of the Cthulhu-style mash-up of the first game, rather than the Strogg-oriented sequels. "We went from the Quake 2 and the Quake 4 Strogg universe. We are at least tossing around the possibilities of going back to the bizarre, mixed up Cthulhu-ish Quake 1 world and rebooting that direction," he tells them. "We think that would be a more interesting direction than doing more Strogg stuff after Quake 4.

EDIT: Well it's a reboot.. so.. it should be good either way.

BumbleBee · Jun 18, 2011

I could see a reboot like Halo with Quake mythology and rail guns. multiplayer with quake wars mechanics.

Duke Nukem Forever hit me with bad nostalgia because it's not the Duke Nukem I remember at all. 3D Realms really took his character over the top in all the wrong ways. Duke is the uncle you had hero worship for growing up but then you realize he is actually a dick who isn't funny at all and maybe even pity. Last Action Hero with Arnold Schwarzenegger is what Duke Nukem should of been.

It's a parody of Duke Nukem 3D. Ironic, but true.

Drone · Jun 18, 2011

I don't give a fuck about reviews and ranks but it's sad that DNF wasn't received well.

BumbleBee · Jun 18, 2011

Duke Nukem was a product of it's time.

Fixing long level load times

For those of you running Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, you might find that the level load times annoyingly get longer and longer, like 40-60 seconds, instead of 5 seconds. In fact, it's never 5 seconds, but starts at around 10-15 seconds.

Good news, theres an easy fix.

Just set Kaspersky to stop monitoring the application. Even though it's in the trusted group, this still slows it down massively.

Do the following:

- Double click the

icon to open the application interface
- Click Settings at the top right
- Click Application Control from the list on the left
- Click the Applications... button
- Find the GEARBOX SOFTWARE folder and click the + on it's left to open it (it should be in the trusted group. If it's not, move it there)
- Double click DUKEFOREVER.EXE
- Click the Exclusions tab
- Check 'Do not monitor application activity'. Leave the others alone
- Click OK
- Close all Kaspersky windows

Load times will now be around 5 seconds.

TheMailMan78 · Jun 21, 2011

Mine have been 5 seconds since day one.

But are you running Kaspersky?

CDdude55 · Jun 22, 2011

Loading times have been very fast for me even though im not running Kaspersky, i do have Avast constantly monitoring in the background.

Didn't know DNF has an issue with Kaspersky.

Microwave rat!

Yeah, I didn't realize it until a few days, either.

Kaspersky is excellent, but it can be a bit of a rottweiller at times and needs holding back. :laugh:

Technically, I shouldn't disable app monitoring for DNF to keep security at maximum, but jeez, one has to balance the cost-benefit equation, lol.

EDIT:

The rat part starts at about 50 seconds.

my verdict
is duke nukem forever entertaining: yes
is it a good game : no
would I like moar duke : yell yea baby

qubit · Jun 26, 2011

Just checked the Steam top sellers list and it's good to see that DNF is still at number 11, despite getting such unreasonably bad reviews. I guess the buying public isn't so swayed by dodgy reviews, then.

This can only bode well for a killer sequel!
