It's anyone who was signed into XBL and booted the game once in the last week.

lol, in that case the game probably tanked! It will be interesting seeing the figures. I was hoping for a new Gearbox Duke Nukem game.

I think there will definitely be a new Duke. It's also possible that the average gamer is not as critical as message board junkies and doesn't realize how iffy this game is.

That list accounts for xbl multiplayer only I think. The majority of people that bought DNF wouldnt have picked it up for the multiplayer.

It tallies up anyone who is playing the game period, per unique ID (gamertag) - it could be rentals, purchases, etc.

theres some neat easter eggs in the kitchen section, if you stop to read the cans/jars lying around they often have some quite funny shit written on them.

eg. on tin of beans "airbriush your shorts with our heinous beans. you'll be splitting crowds in no time when your mud blowing bubble butt sends out a crescendo of brown notes"

lol

A friend and I rented it for a day figuring we'd get some mindless fun or at least a nostalgic laugh.  Well we didn't get many laughs at all, and the first few levels were a dull grind, but when we got to the dark hive bit it started to get fun (in spite of rolling those balls around), and it seemed to get better and better from there. 

Although the last thing we did before returning it was the monster truck highway run with pigs rolling barrells off their trucks - and you've drove past them by the time they get the barrells off.  :lol

there is a single player expansion out. Looks hilarious from the trailer, I'll have to rent Duke shortly and play this.

I got this for $5 at Best Buy the other day. Haven't played it yet, but I'll probably do so over Christmas break.

You know, future Duke Nukem games would probably work better as monthly adventures for $5.

Duke Nukem isn't going to be funny again until the game becomes one big joke on Duke. Like he's some loser asshole that somehow saves the world and has this warped notion that the people around him think he's the greatest of all time. I get that Duke has had a resurgence in popularity thanks to Ventrilo Harassment but those jokes work because of the reaction to them, you can't take "Balls balls balls of steel" and think it'll be as funny.

Maybe this'll be funny.

I grew up playing Duke 3d and my sense of humor is largely unchanged from when I was 12 years old, so I still find Duke hilarious.
