I'd beg to differ, the one on the left (PAX Demo Main Menu version) looks the most like Duke does on the Duke Nukem 3D Artwork, and the picture I'm about to post

This hardly looks like the classic Duke.

I'm getting confused, his glasses have changed like FOUR times. we have the original 2007 trailer, then this one, then the in game one we saw, and now finally in the leaked trailer images where they look RIGHT

[Master Fibbles]

It is obviously a menu option to customize his sunglasses. In fact, I heard a rumor that there is a planned DLC pack of sunglasses and clothes that will be available only to those who own Borderlands and all of its DLCs.

[Mr.Deviance]

I am blown away at the level of quality at which they've remade the Freeze-Ray gun!
It looks EXACTLY like the Duke3D sprite one! It even has the same color. It looks like a HD remake of the Duke3D one for real.
I've cropped both the duke3d one and the one from the trailer to see how much they look alike!

If they remake all the other weapons with this level of quality, I will be very happy.
Though, tbh the shrink-ray gun in DNF looks nothing like the duke 3d one, but this one does, which is a bit weird.

ALSO!!!
General Graves is still in the game, FUCK YEAH!
Whose willing to bet, that he won't be using the same old recorded lines that we saw in the 2001 trailer?

[MartyMcFly]

Yeah Im also stoked about the freeze ray. If only they made the shrink ray either similar or just better looking.

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

I strongly believe the trailer is the one Scott Miller mentioned on his FB profile back in end of November 2009!

I guess remaking the trailer with the updated models and graphics is too much work?!

I SO WANT THIS AWESOMNESS NOW! Release or burn GBX! Burn by the fire the fans are bringing to the table that is!

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

BTW: Angelo from who do you got those pics?!

Only if one man working on it 1 hour a week.

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

the 2007 trailer Duke is different to the other ones! Now I see that both newer Duke's are almost the same model, only that the one the left is pre-rendered! Compare the face similarities!

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

Mr. Green made this:

[DI-MeisterM]

Awesome screenies, thanks for posting them! That makes the wait for the trailer even more harder...

btw. that must be the WORST looking DNF logo I've seen so far.

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

it's so 80's

[Mr.Deviance]

Every other version of Duke, has the right glasses besides the one that I've seen in the demo
Out of 10 fucking models they just had to pick the worst one...

[Sebastian]

Totally stoked now. Thanks for posting this, Angelo86.
Also love the freezer, but more importantly I'm glad they kept the red eyes of the pigcops.

Old trailer?

If you look at the edge of the base of the shells in his bandolier, you'll see that the one on the left is probably not a game model. It looks either like its painted or a high-res model. You can clearly see the polys in the right hand one.

[BugsBunny]

I think the ingame shot for Duke is the best. For me this clearly indicates the the model for Duke used in the trailer is an old one.

[Micky C]

The ingame screenshot makes duke look like he's wearing a topless shirt and duke looks way more muscular in the pax trailer

[Stewox]

They're starting to pick it up

finally some kickass leak, hopefully this will get things movin'

[Master Fibbles]

The menu is certainly painted or higher res. Although some menus now days have in game date streaming through, a lot of (especially classic) menus have a standard background. As a most basic thing, it is the duke model in higher res and then shopped to look smoother.

[MusicallyInspired]

The menu is definitely animated, though. Not static.

[Master Fibbles]

I can't tell unless I play the game.

[DavoX]

We've seen the menu at pax, it is definitely animated.

[Tea Monster]

Then what you are seeing is going to be the high-res model rendered in something like V-Ray, which is going to look loads better than the game model rendered in game.

To me it seems that the DNF demo uses a FULLY 3D ANIMATED MODEL in the menu. I think the demo loads the in game model into the menu, similar to the way in which you can load your character models in unreal tournament 3 and customize them.
I've seen the menu filmed at PAX and I could see Duke moving and smoking his cigar in the menu, he definitely wasn't static.
He was looking around and taking his cigar out of his mouth from time to time to blow some smoke.
Though, there is a possibility that the entire menu is a HD flash that has been prerendered to make it seem like there is a duke model there.
The reason I am saying that the entire menu could be Flash is because even though he is animated, his model and the rendering on his model look too good to be true.
It could be the higher poly version of Duke from which they've made the low poly one that's in the demo.

[MusicallyInspired]

It's definitely not Flash. If anything it's some kind of encoded video playback like L4D/L4D2. It wouldn't be Flash.
