Hail to the king, baby. It's finally here!

Finished up at the hands of Gearbox Software, Duke Nukem Forever allows players to once again put on the shades of Duke himself, and rid the world of yet another alien invasion. Assault troopers, octabrains, shrink rays and babes; they're all here, and they're out to grab you by the balls this Friday.
