I have been waiting a long time for this game.... been in development for what 10 years? Just wondering if anybody knows if it will actually be released or if its just going to be in development until I die.

No. 3DRealms laid of majority of their staff and canned the game. They are currently in the middle of a legal battle with Take-Two over the moneyTake-Twopaid them for publishing rights.

Not really. 3DRealms were the scum of the games industry, and I'm personally glad they are no longer conning publishers out of money.

I think it will be released.. it's a brand.. it's like a Paris Hilton, sooner or later there will be less and less originialities and more brand digging.. like dungeon keeper, populous... you know the old stuff.. to ensure sales

I doubt todays generation of mainstream gamers has much interest in Duke Nukem, and I wouldn't be surprised if the franchise is entirely scrapped. The game never really had a story and has probably lost most of it's cult following by not releasing new games (unlike the Doom or Wolfenstein series').

We don't need it anyway. It would just be a straight up shoot 'em up FPS with very little innovation and extremely immature, dated humour. Time has moved on from Duke.

It hasn't been canceled. At least that's what they've last said after Take 2 sued them. And I think they are also working on a new Duke Nukem game. :lol:

It HAS been cancelled. 3DRealms fired the ENTIRE studio that was making the game, then said that they are no longer making games. They simply said they were going to make ALL their money from leasing out the rights to Duke Nukem. Which is the worst business plan I've ever heard of. They'll be fully gone within the next couple of years.

Wrong. It is still possible for them, or even more plasuible for another company to pick up the game and finish it.

I didn't say it wasn't possible. I just said they weren't doing it, they don't have the money or the staff to do it. And they explicitly said they wouldn't allow any other companies to finish DNF, especially not Take Two. 3DRealms management were and are scum, no two ways about it. They took money from Take Two in exchange for publishing rights for a game they clearly never intended to finish (from the leaked assets, we can see they hadn't even finished a third of the game) and I'm glad that when they ran out of money and asked Take Two for more, they simply said "No." I honestly hope Take Two wins their lawsuit and gets the Duke Nukem IP from 3DRealms. They already filed a restraining order which stops 3DRealms from destroying ANY of the assets they have for DNF. So assumably Take Two intend on finishing DNF by themselves if they win the lawsuit.

You're right, I never get laid. My wife and I never have sex. /sarcasm

Also, I'm curious how you correlate Duke's one-liners and the pixelated boobs in the night clubs to getting laid? Do you use those in pick up lines? Enlighten us.

Talking about Duke Nukem Forever is like beating a dead horse. Lets just put it to rest and move to other topics.
