Hm, no. See, that wasn't really funny becasue for one, Duke says something like that about a game that plays better than his own. The first rule when making something is never reference an obvious better movie/music/game/book/thing. It doesn't make it funny, it just makes it seem the writers were being immature. Also, allow me to point out the power armor bullshit. Duke still has power armor. In this game, they call it "EGO" but it functions just like power armor does in other games. If they wanted to truly mock power armor, they should have made the game with health pickups and non-regenerating health.

Also, while I took out the quote, I'm going to elaborate on your own wording of "Played just like a Duke game." It didn't, for a few reasons. The health regen, for one. For two, Duke can only carry two guns at any time in this game, whereas in his other games, he could carry everything. Three, the "humor" wasn't actually funny this time around and felt like the writers were really stretching to make any joke they could, which is pretty sad.
