Shack PSA: Duke Nukem Forever $10 on Steam

How much would you pay for Duke Nukem Forever? $50? $40? $20? Perhaps $10, which is how much it costs in Steam's mid-week sale.

How much would you be willing pay for Duke Nukem Forever? Critics may have largely rejected it, but video gaming's favourite running joke certainly found a fair few fans, and one has to be curious after all these years of waiting, yes? Publisher 2K dropped the standard PC price to $20 on PC in September, and now it's down to only $10 in a Steam mid-week sale.

Steam's sale marks the release of DNF's 'Hail to the Icons Parody Pack' downloadable content, which adds new maps, modes, and other gubbins to multiplayer for $10. If you're a member of Duke's First Access Club, you'll have a key to get the DLC for free, even if you haven't bought the original game yet.

Head on over to Steam to buy Duke Nukem Forever for $10. The deal will run until 6pm Pacific on Thursday.

      If someone paid me $10 I'd still say no, time NOT playing that is a far more valuable commodity

        Exactly, one play through of the demo was enough. If I want to play some duke I'll go play DN3D instead of this pile.

        Good idea, I got it from impulse for 9.99 and it wasn't worth it. I mostly purchased the game and played through it just so I could get all those years waiting behind me. To be honest I have played games that are a lot worse then DNF but it still wasn't a good game.

        haha, DNF isn't 3Drealms anymore so hopefully we will stop getting these dumbass Duke ports to every electronic device on the market.

            Yeah it was ridiculous, I have some old posts about this very thing, it seems 3DR was too focused on re-re-re-re-releasing Duke3D on the Etch-a-Sketch as the new platform of the week. Dumb asses.

      Finally, a pricepoint where I won't feel so bad if it turns out to be a crappy game.

        I rented it from Redbox, played it for about 3 days off and on and only kept going just to see how much worse it could get. I quit about halfway through as I couldn't stand it anymore and had much better games to bide my time with. There are so many, "Oh my God, this is bad.." moments. I don't think I could bring myself to play it again as fun as watching the trainwreck was.

          I think the fact that you're literally playing with shit in the first 5 minutes metaphorically describes your experience for the rest of the game.

      Life is too short to waste on games like this, even at $10.
