He is back, but not quite as many had perhaps expected.
The style of play is as expected and provides linear distraction of many gimmicks and minigames. All in all it's fader as expected but "hey" I am an old fan ... I know him only as =)
The graphics are in accordance with mediocrity. Many stuttering and error in the game are unfortunately standard (eg pigs remain in the wall plug or float in the air)
Opponents are partly stupider than stupid, that sometimes you have really laugh ... but it's just DUKE =)
For fans a must ... for people who see this as an opportunity rather normal mediocrity.
To BALLS OF STEEL content list:
- DUKE bust: simple plastic but looks stylish and is solid.
- COMIC: very good and very well made
- Card Game: halt a mini card game ... There are no ordinary cards
- Dice: normal plastic cube as you know so well.
- History & Legend Legacy: Schick made but nothing special
- Duke Cards: normal cardboard.
- Poker Chips: neat and well finished. A nice gimmick!
CONCLUSION: All in all a good solid set that fans can definitely buy without hesitation !!!
So my overall conclusion for the Balls of Steel Edition:
Graphics: 65%
Sound / Proverbs: 100%
Fun: 75%
BoS content: 85%
Overall image: 80%
Definitely a must for fans.
Gelgenheitskäufer should look closely before buying, what about DUKE and what his strengths are as a purchase otherwise is hard to bear, and expresses the mood.
I, as a fan, it is a must and I am satisfied to 70% compared with the original version 14 years ago !!
Have Fun !!
