Duke Nukem Forever
Is it worth getting this game now?
Is it worth getting this game now that it's dirt cheap and what about the multiplayer DLC/expansion, do they have bots or any other interesting unshockables?

Sure. The campaign is mixed like Half-life and Halo so if you're a fan of that, it will be familiar. Some people don't like the variety this game has. It rotates platforming, shooting/ambush, puzzles and driving segments.

Multiplayer still have some people playing. Active hours are around European evening hours so can be tough for the West unless you know some people. No bots in MP.

Unlockable: You can unlock your Multiplayer Duke model with titles, shirt images, hats and glasses. These are unlocked by completing challenges (like get 50 kills with pistol). Another unlockable is your digs. You can unlock items and girls for your penthouse and it's based on your MP level.

DLC has 2 map packs which MP still play. It's basically required in some server or else you get kicked. Another DLC is Doctor who cloned which if you liked the main campaign then this should be a no brainer grab.

Thanks, but what's with the penthouse and girls that you unlock in multiplayer?

It's starts with an empty penthouse with the maid. Then you level up and unlock some props like basketball net and statues etc. Every 5 levels, you unlock a new girl walk around an area and you just talk to them and they make funny (usually juvenile, sex related) comments. You can't invite your friends over, the penthouse is only singleplayer but it's progressed through multiplayer.

Huh, does that mean it takes a long time to unlock stuff?

Yeah, quite long. Maybe easy to get to lvl 12 but after that feels really slow.

You can just unlock it with a save file seeing as MP is dead
