Duke Nukem Developer 3D Realms Shuts Down (??)

Oh and I Can't believe the 2001 trailer is actually just scripted events made for the media showcase, I loved that trailer, made me want the game so bad, now that memory is shattered

Way better then being canceled, besides knowing MS it's just a temp exclusive.We've waited 13 years, what 1 or 2 more. Though it would be a spit in the face of all those PC gamers that have waited for so long.

So meh whatever.

Halo 3's been out two years without the PC version coming. MS doesn't give the slightest fuck about PC anymore.

i was hoping they didn't give the slightest fuck about halo anymore. then again it might just be because bungie are done with halo or whatever it was they said some time back.

I mentioned Halo 3 because I remember when it came out, they promised a PC version coming soon after. Believe it or not, there are some people that played Halo on PC, like my little sister. She still bugs me to reinstall Halo 2 on her machine every time she gets a virus or worm off limewire and wipes her computer.

God knows what you're bitter over.

How dare that Joe..... moderate the forums.

I didn't make it (I would've if I had the shop skill though, using just the Broussard pic from the farewell group shot), I just reposted it because it owns.

Joe Siegler is a big manchild who spent the entirety of 3dR's existence being a gofer and office bitch, insulting fans and enforcing political views on the forums, playing with action figures, and running fansites for baseball teams and metal bands. Making fun of him is just good wholesome fun.

Edit: You do realize that's George Broussard on the left, right? That's him from when Apogee first spawned 3DR.

I know who's who.

Boy, talking out of your ass with no basis to ridiculous claims is fun! You got banned, didn't you?

It's most certainly been said across the internets already, but 3DR must've ran over some peoples dogs.

Probably. Remember, George had that twitter where he said he almost hit a squirrel in his H2.

It's the only explanation.

Nope, still good. Haven't posted or looked at 3DR's forums in at least two years, though.

I actually didn't have an opinion beyond "Commander Keen is neat" about Joe Siegler (he's got keen as his forum av, or at least he did in 2006), but after 3DR died all the stories about him, pictures of him from back in the day, and videos of him playing with action figures around the offices surfaced in the discussions about it. Hilarious stuff.

And everything I posted above describing Joe Siegler is 100% true. He describes himself as the 3DR gofer in his own resume. Among his duties at 3DR were refilling the soda machines and coffee machines, burning CDs, and doing anything and everything Broussard and Miller wanted.

Really. He's not a cheery guy but he never really insulted fans. Although most other people did. Have you SEEN the weirdos in the DNF board? Maybe you hate going to the source for your information (thus explaining recurring misinformation) or maybe you have a bad memory, but the "action figure video surfacing" was posted by Joe. On his own youtube account. And it's one video. How you can rationalize that one video clearly indicates what he did for over 20 years is beyond me.

And he never touched politics. Barely even allowed politics on the board, especially in recent years. That's probably why the forums were always so damned clean.

EDIT: Oh, wasn't 20 years. Right around 17.

Well obviously he did stuff before DNF started, he was the voice of Duke in Duke 2 (for the one single VO'd line in the game)!

The shadows do seem a bit strong in outdoor areas.

Those driving segments look like they would've been pretty awesome though.

I don't get the scale in this picture, the monstertruck is about the same size as a house window. So either the monstertruck is really small or the town is really big
