Folks, I don't usually do this, but quite frankly this was too cool not to put up. This is a level of DUKE NUKEM designed after the Overlook Hotel in Stanley Kubrick's THE SHINING!!! Too friggin' cool if ya ask me. I'm running on 3.11 right now, so I can't play it, but in a week or so my new system comes together and you bet I'll check this baby out. Not news, but something cool for ya anyway...
i found something that i thought was so incredibly cool, i just had to send it to you. now, you must be a fan of stanley kubrick's THE SHINING, right? well, there's a guy out there in cyberspace who spent a year of his life (pathologically, i'm sure) creating a level of DUKE NUKEM' (yes, i know it's just a game) that is nothing but an utter recreation of Kubrick's The Overlook Hotel. if you are a fan of the film in any way, i swear you will get a kick out of this. it is extremely well done, better than any other duke nukem level i have seen (including the original games'), and it is detailed down to the photos on the walls, the tapestries, soundbytes from the film, music, etc. ahh, the magic of computers...
anyway, this game devotedly captures the spirit of the film to the point where i was scared shitless when i rounded the corner of a hallway and the twins are standing there. seriously, you get to kill jack torrance (or try) over and over. there are so many neat ideas in it, i could easily drop all the spoilers right here on you to get you to check it out. but i won't. i'm stopping right now.
it is quite simply one of those things where, the entire time i was experiencing it, i was saying: "Cool!"
