Duke Nukem Forever, an allegory for the current state of the US

Duke Nukem Forever, an allegory for the current state of the US

Boom. Right there- the American flag is shown in all of its glory on the title screen, and at the end of the in-game, in-game demo.

Duke Nukem Forever wasn’t originally a part of this list, but then I had a shocking revelation: Duke used to be the most awesome video game character of his generation. He had the guns, he had the lines, he had the babes- Duke Nukem was cool. He was loud, bombastic, powerful, and awe-inspiring. Several years passed, and Duke’s popularity declined…drastically. Now, gamers see the character as a washed-up silouhette of a once glorious figure. Even Duke Nukem fans themselves cringe just a little bit when talking about their idol….

…Reminds me of the current state of a certain nation. NEXT.

Broforce brings America’s action heroes together in the name of freedom

Action movies are the most American form of cinema on the planet. We eat it UP. The Expendables is a culmination of the best action-movie heroes of our time; Sly Stallone, Chuck Norris, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis…Man, could you imagine if there was a video game equivalent to The Expendables? Take all of our favorite action stars and put them into a single game? They can be part of some military organization, going around liberating other territories…Somebody should develop this. Right now.

The most patriotic thing about the Dead or Alive series

The most patriotic thing about the Dead or Alive series

How could this not be on the list? Dead or Alive Extreme 2 features sports- America loves sports. Dead or Alive Extreme 2 features beautiful women- America loves beautiful women. And how can we forget about Tina Armstrong, the American wrestler clad in an American flag swimsuit?

God bless America.
