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

[Serenius]

Wasn't there a Duke Nukem Forever gameplay video that came out awhile back with the Gearbox logo during the intro splashes? This feels like old news. Was the old video a "fake" or something?

I agree that it would be nice to see the game laid to rest but you can't just kill a game that lives FOREVER. It's a plague

I know a few people who are working on the mp, at least it gives them work, heh.

I would actually like to see it finished to be honest.

There is no point in actualy making the game "Duke Nukem: Forever". It can only fail, there are too many negative feelings attached to that name. It will either be a huge dissapointment and even if its good it will probably be below peoples expectations.

Better would be to look at the franchise and do something from scratch that people have lower expectations of and are aware that it is not supposed to be the same game.

Seriously though, reeks of them pulling a prank on this thing, the "Jump in for juicy exclusives, surprising disclosures, unbelievable scoops" line seems like an attempt to hype it up further.

O and har thar zilla

Naw, Gearbox likes making money, and 2k is ready to get some ROI. I'd say it will be out within 2 years.
