We'll conclude Duke's Bros Forever next week. In the meantime, enjoy some comfy counter-programming as we talk about the origins of some of the most ridiculous fake PokéMon of the late-90s internet. Also I checked with Fred and Porygon is indeed the Japanese word for polygon (ポリゴン).

The true believers are shaken by the news that Duke Nukem Forever is Not Good. Everyone else is shaken by what they learn about some of these true believers.

Duke Nukem Forever spent 14 years in development. An entire generation of gamer dudes had their hopes dashed in 2011 when it finally released to mediocre reviews and backlash from players. Thanks to Something Awful's Duke Nukem Forever thread, we can re-live that fateful moment when a bunch of gamers realized that Capture The Babe is maybe a bit problematic now that they aren't teenagers anymore.

In Part One we are on the eve of release, with true believers pushing back against an underwhelming demo. "Always bet on Duke" begins to take on increasingly desperate tones as release draws near.

I'M FROM THE INTERNET and The Crackhead Clubhouse go together like morphinane alkaloids and acetyl substituents. Just like the subject of our episode! This one is less of a science lesson and more a reminder that you definitely should not do heroin.

Imagine a dangerously large image. Big enough to crash a browser. Big enough to destroy websites. Over two decades ago, this image existed. And it came from the Yorba Linda Water Disctrict.

The Texarrakis are finally setting out on their trip to build Fort Awesome. The Goons are getting stir-crazy long before their subjects ever get the chance to.

I said I would not mock them, and I shall not. But Texarrakis is Texarrakis. And the desert makes a mockery of us all. My forum. My post. My Goon.

Four optimistic but woefully unprepared Boston Hipsters are about to try their hand at building an off-grid settlement on a budget with the whole internet watching.
