They did have something unique. It really is a crime that they wouldn't sell the franchise to someone who would use it. I really don't understand where they're getting money to eat. I know Max Payne 1 and 2 got them some cash, but DNF would be huge, even if it was mediocre. They've constantly missed the boat. They seem to be like the guy who never buys a hardware upgrade, cause a better piece will be out next month/year/decade for less. Several excellent games have come along, and I'd say they where as good in different ways. (hl/hl2/deusx/maxpayne/ss2/farcry) But Duke remains special, and noone (except tribes) has had a decent Jetpack. Why is this so F&^%ing hard? None had the over-the-top humor and fun quotient. Damn, this really pisses me off... "Baron_Von_Fritter" <lgalardi@cox.net> wrote in message news:qXOId.921$G31.544@okepread05... >I understand quite well. Duke is very unique in that way.
