Diego’s Top 5 Duke Nukem Quotes

I’ve always been a Duke fan. Shit I’ve been betting on him since I played the first Duke game. No I’m not talking about Duke Nukem 3D you little babies, I’m talking about the first Duke Nukem game that came out in 1991 and was 2D. Man those 2 games were hard as fuck but I still loved and played the shit out of them, and when Duke made the transition to 3D I nearly pissed myself with excitement. Now after over a decade of wait it seems the glory of Duke Nukem Forever will soon shine over our mortal souls and I’ve decided to compile a Top 5 list of my favorite Duke Nukem quotes. It was hard sifting through over 100 different lines but Will forced me to stick with just 5 so blame him. Also if your favorite quote isn’t here go make your own damn list, and blame Will for it too. … Continue Reading

New weapons, killstreaks, and a video editor allows for editing and sharing of replays and moreso, epic gameplay montages. The folks at Treyarch seem to be ramping up the insanity factor in Black Ops with mobile surveillance cameras, exploding RC cars, dual wielding ballistic knives, and even a crossbow, a la Gears of War Torque Bow, that detonates upon impact. … Continue Reading
