Duke Nukem Forever includes butt-slapping "Capture the Babe" ModeBy Ben Kuchera | Last updated a day agoThe last time we were able to play Duke Nukem Forever—at a strip club no less—we weren't able to see the multiplayer, but we were told it would be an important part of the game's release. A few more details have been released via the latest issue of the Official Xbox Magazine, as reported by the Duke4 forum. Guess what? You'll be slapping women. Great.There will be 10 multiplayer maps included in the game, and the modes include Dukematch, Team Dukematch, Hail to the King (King of the Hill), and Capture the Babe. That's right, instead of flags you'll be grabbing and fighting over human women, and every so often one of them will freak out, requiring you to administer a little slap to bring her back to her senses. We have included video of what slapping a woman might look like.How to calm someone downTo be honest, my first thought upon hearing this news was that it was a misprint of some kind, but when publications began getting official clarification stating that you'd be slapping the women on the butt while they were slung over your shoulders, I began to take it a little more seriously. Duke Nukem games have always treated women as objects to lust over, and the most interaction you had with women in prior games consisted of paying them to strip for you. Gaming has grown up, to some extent, and the gamers who grew up playing these games are also a little older, so it will be worth watching to see how this sort of humor plays with contemporary audiences. But there's no way around the fact that there's some offensive misogyny going on here. What's next, rebooting a movie like Blazing Saddles, complete with racial slurs?The game seems happy to invite controversy, which was even offered up as a way to bring attention to special interest groups. "If Duke Forever can help further [a] cause by being that focal point? Happy to do it," Steve Gibson, the VP of Marketing for Gearbox, told Ars when we asked about controversy in a prior interview. "We're happy to further their cause."The matches will be limited to four on four, at least on the Xbox 360, and you'll be able to use the holoduke, slap trip mines on other players, and fire your weapon when shrunk down, but you'll only deal a fraction of the damage until you're back to full size. The gameplay sounds classic, with the junior-high-level humor we'd expect from a game like this, and that should make fans of the game happy. Expect outrage from the mainstream media.Further reading
