DaniJ Posted September 10, 2004 If they EVER finish DNF it will be a miracle. I don't know where 3DRealms finds the money to keep pouring into the project. Lord only knows how many millons they've blown on the project already. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lord only knows how many millons they've blown on the project already. You may remember that 3D Realms once owned the full rights to the Max Payne franchise. They sold those rights to Take Two for about $10 million cash and roughly $35 million in stock options. 3D Realms isn't in any kind of a bind for cash. It's difficult for me to imagine this game turning out well at this point... even if it's technically well-made (and at this point it had damned well better be the most polished PC game released in the last decade), I have to wonder if any of it will be relevant or interesting to jaded modern PC game players. I've got a glimmer of hope, but don't stay up nights thinking about it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sephiroth Posted September 10, 2004 prior to max payne that company was in trouble. however i am sure they can waste what money they have now. chances are they will sell the rights to another company who will finish the game. i believe the game, if ever released, will be piss poor. switching the engine, yet agian, would just be wasting more money. for a game due out in 1998 duke's day has come and gone. people are tired of the hype, no other companies will invest. had they not done max payn, or had it sucked, there would be no 3drealms. chances are duke MP will be a far better game compared to duke4. that was a very fun one to play, more so for old school duke fans. as far as i can remember duke:MP was not made by 3d realms. i have a feeling that if duke 4 is released that it may be by another company 0 Share this post Link to post
sgtcrispy Posted September 10, 2004 hehe Maybe they are secretly working on a version of Prey under the shadow of DNF? That'd be cool. 0 Share this post Link to post

kristus Posted September 11, 2004 I read that whole article and the things that the Prey engine could do was quite mindblowing. It seemed to have no real limits (except perhaps vertex counts and such stuff) as to what one could create. I can't understand how 3d realms can fail so miserably to get their games released. 0 Share this post Link to post
Wobbo Posted September 11, 2004 doom3s technology does have support for portals, dunno if they are dynamic though... which was the whole cool part of prey (4th dimensional) 0 Share this post Link to post
S1lent Posted September 11, 2004 Oh well..I didn't really like Duke Nukem anyways. There were only a few good DN games and those were the first ones (2D) and Duke 3D & the exapnsion where he's in DC. Otherwise, it's just gotten really corny and really stupid ever since. 0 Share this post Link to post

(insert a bunch of games here) duke atomic edition doesn't count. it's merely an upgraded version. duke in DC also doesn't count as it's an add-on pack. plutonium pack also does not count because it just upgrades 3d to atomic edition. total meltdown is only a port. everything else counts. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cadman Posted September 13, 2004 DNF = Duke Nukem Forever? DNF = Do Not Finish! Doom3 was started after DNF was started and it came out first, DNF better blow Doom3 out of the water, and it better be breaking new ground! George Broussard should marry KillCreek, they would make a fine couple! He's got a huge artificial ego and she's got huge artificial boobs, thanks to John Romero.

Well, even though Duke in DC is an expansion pack and is a COMPLETELY SEPERATE CAMPAIGN, I'll list the ones that WOULD count. Not including Duke Nukem: Forever... - Duke Nukem 1 - Duke Nukem 2 - Duke Nukem 3D - Duke Nukem: Time to Kill - Duke Nukem: Color Gameboy (GB Color Version) - Duke Nukem: Zero Hour - Duke Nukem: Land of the Babes - Duke Nukem: Advance (GB Advance Version) - Duke Nukem: Manhatten Project Thats still a lot of games even with your feeble excuses. An upgraded version of a game is still a seperate release.
