scalliano Posted August 17, 2010 Thing is, after 13 years of rumours, rewrites, engine changes, dev team changes and dev team closures I'll be VERY FECKIN SURPRISED if this is true. Even if it is, Gearbox will doubtless find something more important to do. Stick with the memories, peoples - they're better for you. (By that I mean go and play DN3D ;) ) 0 Share this post Link to post

Jello Posted September 3, 2010 It feels like I'm getting old. I remember Gearbox as the studio that developed Opposing Force and Nightfire. However, considering that Opposing Force was the best expansion I've played, and generally prefer it to the original Half-Life, I think they might be able to pull it off. They also have this uncanny knack for releasing a game in less than 12 years. As long as Broussard isn't involved I think it could probably get done, but I'm not sure it matters at this point. There's quite a few people playing games who have no idea what Duke Nukem Forever is aside from a long running joke, and have never actually played the original games. They'd probably be better off making a new Blood, at least it wasn't all titty jokes. 0 Share this post Link to post
david_a Posted September 3, 2010 It's official folks.According to Pitchford, Gearbox began finishing “Duke Nukem Forever” in late 2009. ... The game is currently expected to ship in 2010 although given it’s history Pitchford is understandably reluctant to be more specific. 0 Share this post Link to post
Manc Posted September 3, 2010 At the very least they have people actually interacting with a demo that has polish, which is further than it's ever really been before. 0 Share this post Link to post
Craigs Posted September 3, 2010 I've got a feeling it's going to be released sometime around Christmas. Just seems like the most appropriate time for something that's been in developement as long as DNF. 0 Share this post Link to post
hervoheebo Posted September 3, 2010 Heh, /v/ just about exploded with joy when it went official that Duke's back. Not that I was there. Always bet on Duke. That's what they say, and I'm hoping it'll pay off... 0 Share this post Link to post
Jodwin Posted September 3, 2010 It's official folks. said: "Gearbox hopes to release the game next year." ...and... "The game is currently expected to ship in 2010" ...so which one is it? 0 Share this post Link to post

Craigs Posted September 3, 2010 I'm pretty sure that we'll never live to see Duke Nukem Forever. It will be released, that much is certain, but we won't live to see it as it will bring about the end of the world. I know someone who works for Gearbox that said they're actually going to release it in 2012 which is the year the world is going to end. It is common knowledge that Duke Nukem Forever can never be released. It's one of the laws of nature. So when they release it in 2012 it will cause a massive paradox that will tear apart the time space continuum and destroy the universe. 0 Share this post Link to post
