Duke Nukem Forever and Ever

[Deadguy118]

Wow, Only took them 12 years to make actual gameplay footage

The segment starts about 2 minutes into the show.
Doom Clone?

2026, well, kidding, when it's gonna come, i think about 2010 really. They work SO freaking slow, so that's how i feel about it. Yet i also think that it's gonna let people down, people will think that a new messiah of games is standing up (cause of the every year hype), but really it's just a basic shooter...

[ThunderTitan]

Hey, i wanted to post that....




And you're wrong, they had gameplay footage years ago, when they first announced it... it's on you tube...

[danijel1990]

It will be in development at least for 2 more years

But that was from a time where it was "olmost done" meanwhile, they sat down, drank some beer and got wasted every day. It's just a shame that it's taking so long. You are right though about the gameplay footage, but it's not up to date by a LONG SHOT. So don't be a smartass TT...

[ThunderTitan]

Pls, it's been almost done from the get go... they just restart it every few years from scratch... AND WHY SHOULDN'T I BE SMART?!

[darknessfood]

Cause you are an onnying, selfish, irritating, complicated little screwed up piece of horse poo...

[ThunderTitan]

Oh, you're jealous... tough cookies... suck it up already...

[darknessfood]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight....

[Orfinn]

You guys... lol

From DNF to horse poo, now that DOES make sense!

darknessfood, TT is a neccessary evil here around we all need that, without TT well that would be kinda empty, hes the Joker around here.

The segment starts about 2 minutes into the show.
Doom Clone?

*DUMDUMDUM*

Doom clone...

If you havent noticed, every FPS are some kind of DOOM clone... or to be precise Wolfenstein 3D. If Unreal have been one of the very first FPS, well then they have all been Unreal clones. Capiche'?

Did I ever tell you how i got this scar?!

[Kalah]

Duke Nukem Forever in cancelled, it seems.

[ThunderTitan]

Hmmm: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8037688.stm

Publisher Take-Two says it will no longer fund development of the game but retains rights to the title.

[Ethric]

They should never have come clean with the truth, but let the myth live on... forever. Sad.

[Humakt]

I smell something catchy is going on instead: http://gamingisstupid.com/2009/05/06/th ... y-revival/

Got linked to that one couple times until I noticed date.

Of course I may be wrong....

EDIT: More I think/"research" about this, more this looks like a genuine attempt at hype and advertising.

[Talin_Trollbane]

another series goes down the drain it seems. will EA or Ubisoft buy this name too and start shitting out crap games with the Duke Nukem logo on them?

wasnt Ultima and Might & Magic enough? *sigh*

[Deadguy118]

Well, its finally over. Now we can finally forget that this game ever existed, much like what we did with Starcraft: Ghost three years ago.

And Talin, while your cynicism certainly is coming from a good place, no sane developer would even dare to touch this game because of how much of a joke Duke Nukem Forever eventually became, and with all the wild expectations saddled upon it, it would be a PR nightmare.

[Ethric]

That could swing both ways: if they knew their business and pulled off a decent game within a sane time frame (with liberal development blogs etc to show that they were for real), the sales would be massive because of it's infamy.

[ThunderTitan]

It's efing Duke Nukem... as long as there's shooting people and topless chicks in it people will be satisfied...

cynism flows in rivers when you get older and all that you loved as a kid is beaten down with clubs and dragged in the dirt. (Ultima, Might & Magic and Commodore for ex.)
