I have a feeling this guy isn't going to give a review of the full game: http://talesfromacrankygamer.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-played-dnf-demo.html
I end with this;
3D Realms, Gearbox and Triptych Games, you guys fucked up. Duke fans do not want realism. Fans want to beat the shit out of aliens, rip the heads off of pigcops*, oogle strippers, kick ass and chew bubblegum with as little connection to reality as possible and you guys have given us something akin to CoD with a Duke paintjob.
Your decade+ of work looks more like 6 months of monkeys pounding on keyboards.

The more I see DNF videos, the more I want to get back playing Bulletstorm. Or just any other good FPS game.

Where least expected
really? afaik DNF has all those elements

Fast movement speed? Nope

Hard mode equals more enemies? Nope

No cover? Nope (all I have played is the demo, but its all "lmg shoots, take cover, poke head out, get shot, take cover, poke head out, get shot, etc". And the gunship fight is like that too.

Ill give it the guns, boss fight, and a small puzzle was present, but otherwise it really doesn't feel classic. 10 years of development and I get pinned down my a LMG? The LMG can overheat? WTF? Whose idea was that! Overheating in a Duke Nukem game?!?@#?!@?#

I'm pretty sure there are more enemies on a higher difficultly.
And Duke isn't about taking cover, or at least, it's not about sticking to chest high walls. You do take cover now and then to regenerate health. But in the majority of the levels all you can do it trying to dodge enemies.
And lastly, Duke does run at a high speed, could be faster though. It's not the 30kpmh of Doom guy, but it is faster than a normal human runs.

So how does the regenerating health thing work? Do you have to actually go somewhere and hide for it to regenerate and how does this affect gameplay?

Also, I heard that you might also not be able to save at any point in the game, but that this really didn't matter much as the save points are numerous. How does this affect gameplay? I would really prefer being able to save at any point in the game as I'm playing on a PC and not a console.:eek:

When you don't get hit for x seconds health regenerates, no need to hide, just run around and dodge is enough.

As for not being able to save, plenty of check points (even within certain boss battles). But it is a slight annoyance in some cases.

It works exactly like Call of Duty, 'bloody screen SO REAL' style.
