Line 30:
* [[Hype Backlash]]: Also inevitable, considering how long the game was in development and then generating hype when it was close to release. Other than the reviews posted all over the internet, [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment|we'll just leave it at that]].
** [[Wanting Is Better Than Having]]
* [[Internet Backdraft]]: The cover art seen above is rather unpopular with the fan base. Just head on to the Gearbox forums and look in [https://web.archive.org/web/20110126082026/http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=116434 this topic]. Try and say the cover represents the game accurately, how Duke looks cool, or that his left arm looks perfectly fine to you.
* [[Marty Stu]]: The Duke is played this way [[Parody Sue|for laughs.]] He's absolutely perfect. He practically owns the world at this point. He's worshipped by his women and audience, and he's so strong that he can lift 600-pound weights, force open high-tech doors using just his arms, and take down an alien fleet ''[[One-Man Army|by himself.]]''
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: "Always Bet on Duke", a tagline printed on one of the early promotional posters for the game; upon the announcement of the game actually getting released, people started saying they can finally cash in their bets.
