I've been watching someone play it on JTV. Looks bad. :-/

Edit: I should point out I was seeing the console version. The PC version seems to have better graphics.

there is a gameplay commentary video on ign. the game looks terrible
actually, it looks like any other Unreal engine based game such as Bioshock.

The graphics are just fine. I enjoyed the demo. The rest of the game should be loads of fun when it is released on the 14th.

Driving the truck was more fun than I thought it would be.

The reviews are correct, it's a major letdown in almost every way. If you buy it to hear Jon St. John say some decent one-liners then you'll be satisfied. If you bought it for a good gaming experience, you're out of luck.

Who cares about duke nukem forever! America is under attack! (two months after 9/11 here). I kid.

What's up with this guy talking about team fortress 2? I guess he's talking about classic.

this reminds me of a game called Teamfortress 2 =)

it looks...like they rehashed doom 3...or quake 4... That is definitely the quake 3 engine...

if it looks like the quake 3 engine, and feels like the quake 3 engine...its the quake 3 engine.

btw, I heard the game sucked. Really bad. Friend killed himself the next day.
