Want to be First to Duke Nukem Forever Demo?
Then you'll have to buy the new release of Borderlands.
Can you believe it? Duke Nukem Forever is real again and will be an actual, finished product sometime in 2011. Yes, you may still be skeptical, but the game is now in the hands of Gearbox Software, the makers of Borderlands.
Before the game will ship, Gearbox will produce a demo to give everyone a taste of the modern age Duke – but it won't be available to everyone right away. If you love Duke Nukem, hopefully you'll love Borderlands too. 2K Games and Gearbox Software are trying to give Borderlands one last push with a game of the year edition that'll also grant its owners early access to the Duke Nukem Forever demo.
Borderlands Game of the Year edition will be available beginning October 12 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 for $59.99, and for PC for $49.99. this package will come complete with all the Borderlands DLC catalog thus far, which includes The Zombie Island or Dr. Ned, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, The Secret Armory of General Knoxx, and Claptrap's New Robot Revolution (regularly $10 each).
The real seller could be the free membership certificate for the Duke Nukem Forever First Access Club. This certificate entitles owners who register their unique key to "a wealth of goodies," including the earliest possible admittance to the Duke Nukem Forever playable demo.
For all gamers who haven't yet picked up Borderlands, this is a great deal. For those who grabbed Borderlands when it launched last year (like I did), this is a bit of a bummer.

I knew I held out on Borderlands for a reason, Borderlands here I come.
meh, was going to get the Goty edition anyway, Borderlands is epic good fun with a few mates
It's time to kickass and chew bubblegum ... and I'm all outa gum.
its about time..... i got balls of steel
is it wrong to pirate a demo, duke nukem edition
As alidan has hinted at... I personally will not think twice about downloading this demo. I mean the demo is not even being bundled with a newish game. Although I am fairly sure that the demo will miss the one thing we all want from DN... formidable online multiplayer.
Or go on youtube the day of the release.
is it wrong to pirate a demo, duke nukem edition
In this scenario, I'll have to say, no. No it isn't.
If I have some cash, I'll be sure to pick up the GoTY edition.
it's ok... it will be available via torrent
oo another dlc.. how did claptrap robot revolution get out without me noticing.. all the dlc and the game have been awsome, have to steam the new one when i get home
this made my day!
as for dnf... when it hits steam i'll probably get it but not really intrested in beta testing it, never really got the point of beta testing for free .. so i'm gonna find your glitches on my time for your profit
Shakem baby !!
Duke had booth babes before anyone else ...
If I have to hawk my spare kidney I will have a copy of DNF on release date
"Want to be First to Duke Nukem Forever Demo?"
No. I no longer care because they took too damn long to come out with it. And why is a PC version of a game going to be cheaper then console versions?

PC games are always cheaper than consoles
Didn't you know?
And why is a PC version of a game going to be cheaper then console versions?
...because they usually are. (Not that it makes a hell of a lot of sense.)
I've heard countless times Microsoft and Sony charge roughly $10 per game released on console, or so I've heard.
But EA and Ubisoft are looking to change that apparently, with new PC games running 59.99. Like SC:C, Assassin's Creed 2, Crysis 2 and MOH.
PC games are always cheaper than consolesDidn't you know?
Console makers lose money / maybe break even on hardware knowing that they will make it up on games sales. Not so with PC's, hence the lower price.
I'm going to buy it. I hate to admit it, but I'm going to buy it, and I'm going to play the demo first, then Borderlands
.
I can see the Duke Nukem Demo breaking a few torrent download records.
Always bet on Duke!
Damn, those alien bastards are gonna pay for shooting up my ride!
can't wait!
"For those who grabbed Borderlands when it launched last year (like I did), this is a bit of a bummer."
Agreed, not a great way for gearbox to treat us paying customers. This sort of thing really encourages piracy of the demo as others mentioned.
i'm going to wait for the official pirated version of DNF
DOH!
I just picked it up yesterday for $5 on clearance at Target... I like to think I still came out ahead here, demo or no demo.
Although I am fairly sure that the demo will miss the one thing we all want from DN... formidable online multiplayer.
Who cares about multiplayer in a Duke Nukem game?

Back in the day a "Duke-fest" in the office after work was the highlight of the week. Friday evening me, the boss and half a dozen other staff would finish work and get a pizza in and run past midnight. It's hard to believe it was nearly 14 years ago I was essentially doing a LAN party.
Damn I feel old...
after what they did with dn which if i remember correctly was just a big sham, they never really intended to release it....dn was my first shooter that i loved but i'm not interested and probably will d/l the torrent out of curiosity and for my friends who might make the mistake of actually paying for this
duke nukem forever torrents!!
But I already bought borderlands via Steam...
But I already bought borderlands via Steam...
Yep...with all the expansions. A lot of people did. Well...it's just the first crack at the demo...some people will feel slighted (somewhere in my head, this includes me) but it really comes down to a push to get the people who haven't bought yet. (Plus, they might give us a crack at it, too. I've seen Steam update stuff to GotY edition before.)
I hate borderlands though. It's bland. and it's shoot shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, finally it's dead.
Shouldn't the title read "Want to be First to Demo Duke Nukem Forever"?

Are you joking? Didn't duke nukem pretty much create the lan party?
