    Randy needs more money to gamble away on Hustler

      Good news, Gearbox might be going into the corporate shitter so Randy will be on the streets.
      This means someone might brave out a real leak from his greasy paws.

    You and me can seethe about it being exclusive to some coomlector handheld but you cannot call it garbage. There's clear effort being put into these.

      Then wouldn't it be a better idea to sell it on PC, you know, the platform that has the most people interested in old DOS games? If there effort then it's wasted just to sell some shitty handheld.

        The remasters are being funded by that Evercade company. It has nothing to do with Gearbox.

        This company has just licensed out the Duke property for their product. They're putting all the work in, hiring the programmers and shit. I do hope myself someone can rip it or reverse engineer or or something. Also they couldn't afford the pc version of 3D for the collection so it's just a modified playstation version and they also couldn't afford the music rights so none of the Bobby Prince music is going to be in there

            Bobby didn't have the same licensing agreement with the music as Lee did, it only covered the original PC release (and maybe the PSX and Saturn ports), and this is something which Randy forgot when he launched the 20th Anniversary version of Duke Nukem 3D. Thus Bobby sued Gearbox for using his music without permission, which was eventually settled.

            I'm sure Bobby would be fine with cutting a deal with the Evercade people, but the costs are going to go up this way.

          From what I recall, Evercade carts are essentially just SD cards in a different physical form. The Evercade itself I think runs a custom Linux since there's usually a launch.sh

        There's no reason to get a platform if there's no hook for it. Reminds me of the people that constantly seethed about games that weren't ported out of the Vita or took a long time after the Vita was dead to get ported out.

        I don't actually believe PC gamers are interested in old DOS games any more.

          The majority? Absolutely not, but it's still where there's the largest audience for those games.

            I'm really not convinced that's where they are. I think an audience into DOS games would be more into a dedicated platform for it that lets them plug in different sound drivers and futz around with a simpler experience that lets them play the games.

            They hired an artist to do the cover, and backtracked when they were informed they were using AI to generate the final product.

        It doesn't even look good even if you were to fix the hands, AI art just has this ugly style to it which is unappealing.

        The best part about this is Evercade was like

        >Sorry it's not our fault!!! we didn't know!!!

        If that is true, it only makes it worse as it shows the kind of low standard and work procedure they have not to realize this. Plus it only begs the question as to why the artist would do this and think he'd get away with it in the first place, did they pay him so little that he decided the pay was only worth AI art?

          Evercade was the console where the first batch of games had button layouts that made no sense suggesting that they'd changed something fundamental about either the button layout or how they are connected at the hardware level without telling devs. Not only that, but the broken games all had DIFFERENT button layouts which tells you that it's either not the first time they did that or they had no fricking clue what they were giving their devs in the dev kits.
          It's Blaze. Shit it out, sell it and discontinue it when you've got the next shit to sell.

    Just search for Rigelengine. You get Duke Nukem 2 in widescreen, smooth gameplay, better framerate and modding support for free.

          That's pretty fricking cool. The guy did good work so I hope he was paid well for this.
          If he was involved with the port for Douk 1, I hope we see that soon as well. I fricking love Duke 1 and 2, genuinely fantastic games.

            Maybe I should have clicked on the article and read it. Well good to see he was spearheading both Douk 1 and 2's port like that. Doubtful we'll see a freeware version of Douk 1's port.
            I'll be honest when I say I'd be willing to buy Duke 1 and 2's ports if they sold them, I can't imagine they'd be very expensive.

        In case you guys weren't aware, there is a sourceport for Duke 1 as well called FreeNukem. I don't recall how good it actually is, but it might be worth looking into.

    Sick of modern consoles annd always online shit? Buy evercade and support them, they put out super affordable official licensed game carts on great hardware. Of course - if you are a pirate you may not want to bother. I just love the fact I have a physical official collection of the Oliver twins games I can play on my TV as well as tons more

    Who cares if it is exclusive? First one has a source port, and both of them play perfectly fine on DOSBox.
