Duke Nukem Forever demo early access w/ Borderlands GotY photo

The Duke Nukem Forever First Access Club is a club you want to get into if you want to play the demo of...Duke Nukem Forever. This is really just a silly name for early demo access. Still, I'll take it. The good news is that it comes with every copy of Borderlands Game of the Year Edition

2K Games and Gearbox are teaming up on this offer. Starting October 12 you'll be able to get Borderlands in its entirety and nab a membership certificate for the First Access Club. Your included unique key will unlock a "wealth of goodies," including early access to Duke Nukem Forever, in demo form.

While we don't have a date for the demo's early release, they say that you'll get the earliest possible admittance to Duke. 

Of course, you're also getting a killer game in the box with Borderlands. Know for $59.99 on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and $49.99 on the PC, you'll get the game and all four DLC adventures.

Does this come with the PC version? I'd very much appreciate that.

So I'll have to drop 30 bucks for DNF goodness since I already have the game and 2 of the DLCs?

God damnit...

Yes. Been wanting Borderlands for a while, and wanted to try out Duke Nukem.

YAY.

@renegadepanda i feel your pain. i also have borderlands already. although, i guess it's not so bad. we've waited for like 15 years, i'm sure we can hold out a little longer for the demo to go downloadable.

Nevermind the fact that I've give Gearbox / 2K twice the money they're charging for the GOTY edition, by buying everything as it came out.

Are you sure? I could've sworn I remembered hearing Anthony say it would be $50. Oh, well.

I've been meaning to pick up Borderlands. It's on my backlog, along with about a million other games. This is pretty good incentive, I'd say.

Expertly said.

Since your comment is probably an accurate example of your overall intelligence, here's hoping that you never quite figure out how to reproduce.

And anyone remember when demos were free and abundant?

No, no, no, no and a half n. I don't care if the demo is ExClUsIvE for some mortals because Duke is dead for me. The last time I saw him was on the PS1 in this time travel thingy, where he messed around with time... or was is pudding?

Short version: It won't appear in Germany anyway... so who cares!

Of course he's console centric; the whole fucking industry is, in case you hadn't noticed already. Stop trying to act like your better than anyone else, you're just propagating the PC gamer stereotype.

PC and I'm set. I might have to finally buy Borderlands, even if it's just for a demo.

I won't buy something to get access to a demo. That's not how I roll.

If you are bitching because a game that's been out for a year is getting a special edition then you are an idiot. It's called marketing: a game is released, sales begin to slow then they rerelease with bonuses to get late adopters.

That's how things work, so I'm not sure why people are getting up in arms over this.

...but no love for those of us that have supported the game since it's release, bought all the DLC, and still actually play it. whatever...

at least Bethesda supported its customers by giving them access to a free premium theme download, not much, but it's the thought that counts.

Thats bullshit. They should only do this if they also give every CURRENT owner of Borderlands access to the demo online as well.

I don't have a problem with GOTY editions anymore, but to me this comes off being a bit shady and trying to drive up more sales on Borderlands from people who already have it. I already bought your game and your dlc's, I have to buy those again if i want an early access demo for your next game? Yeah, I'll pass.

I'm sure you'll see the DNF demo on the internet faster than you can say "torrent"!

Hey guys, I'm boycotting Microsoft because I was supporting their system, then they come out with a sleek, slim model with a bigger hard drive for cheaper. Even though that is not stopping me from enjoying the system I already bought, I'm pissed....who's with me?

Yeah, seems kinda dumb to protest something like that doesn't it? Well stop hating on Gearbox then, people.

So happy I waited for this game. I also decided to wait for games that will definitely get a GOTY edition like Fallout New Vegas.

Ever since I made the decision to buy Batman: AA instead of Borderlands I've been waiting for a GotY edition so the beta is just another bonus.

@exp0d That's a shitty fucking attitude to have, it's sad that Gearbox's lack of loyalty to it fans gives you some perverted pleasure. Why don't you go trawl NeoGAF with the rest of the bottom feeders.

I have one thing to say: DNFdemo.torrent

Sorry Gearbox, but I already bought Borderlands, and demos are supposed to be free.
noeCamron's Avatar - Comment posted on 10/07/2010 22:30

People are overlooking the fact that this is simply an 'early access' and acting as if they'll never get to play the demo because they already own borderlands. Relax guys. The demo will be free eventually.
