People really liked the game. It was overwhelmingly popular. Because he's a character. Something virtually every other first person game neglects. Duke has personality and attitude.
People play games to get away.
To not be themselves. You and the team did extensive research in Nevada for Duke Nukem Forever. Haha, we didn't go to them all, but the Crazy Horse 2 was certainly fun and good for research. After having been your producer at GT for your stuff for about four years, the most common question about you guys is what are you like. If I weren't helping create games, I'd be playing them in my spare time and hating some other job I had.
