Duke Nukem Forever

[Al B. Sure!]

What are you talking about?

[DaShi]

I'm just agreeing with you that HC should be laughed at because he wasn't even born yet when Duke Nukem I came out and he was only 3 when the famous Duke Nukem 3D came out.

[Al B. Sure!]

Huh? I was pointing out the humor in HC getting so excited when the game is older than he is.

He was a toddler when Duke Nukem Forever was announced.

Because everybody knows no-one plays games that came out when they were 3.

I know you're trying to be an ******* but actually, that's kind of true. Due to technological advancement, video games typically do not have long lives. How often do people play video games from the early 90's today? I mean really? Why would you? Only for nostalgic reasons, something which wouldn't exist if the game was out when you were 3.

I'd say the statement no one plays games that came out when they were 3 is actually a generally accurate statement.

I'm only an ******* towards people who make idiotic claims. (OK, right, and most of the other time maybe. I'm not really an *******, just highly sarcastic. Blame my mother)

In any case, while your statement is probably true (I mean, how many games were released in 1987? Also, anyone over 40 is pretty much screwed), and while most 'gamers' (including casual gamers) don't play old games, the general idea that no one plays old games is ridiculous. If you target only people who play strategy games, for example, there's a very large amount who still play old games... Hell, I myself only played a lot of old games relatively recently, such as the classic Fallout games and Master of Magic, for example. Or, to be extreme, I played The Oregon Trail, a 1971 game, as late as 2006... That's a game made 13 years before I was even born.

If what you claimed were true, apps such as dosbox wouldn't exist, and GOG would have been out of business the moment it launched. I can agree that they are not popular, but saying that no one does is like saying that no one listens to rap.

[N35t0r]

Did someone add ******* to the censor just now? Or I'm finally losing it?

Also, 1987 Games I played, at least, 6 of those.

[Al B. Sure!]

Well they put Zork on the latest Call of Duty game so anything is possible, I guess.
