My point: sometimes the guys to be scared of don't look like guys to be scared of. That wasn't my point. My point is that if Tim Sweeney gave me an offer I couldn't refuse I'd have the gaping eye socket to prove it.

I didn't realize George Broussard was such a fat fuck who probably paid himself very well for so long in order to keep up a healthy stripper habit (sorry, "research").

That was a good article, seemed pretty believable too.

#1 rule of business. Don't use your own money.
The only thing I learned was that they poured their own money down that toilet, all the other stuff was pretty obvious. Sad story.

Was that real gaming journalism?

It came from outside the gaming journalism industry, so chances are better than average.

NECRO POST FTW!!! http://www.giantbomb.com/news/rumor-gearbox-software-to-finish-duke-nukem-forever/2417/If you thought the Duke Nukem Forever saga was over when 3D Realms and Take-Two settled their legal differences, you were (possibly) wrong. Kotaku is reporting that a build of the fabled shooter is now in Gearbox Software's hands, and the full game will eventually come to market.
Sounds like a long shot--and it feels like it is, considering this is DNF we're talking about, a game that has been in development for over a decade--but apparently this rumor is crashing against some sort of truth.

I can't wait. If this actually launches, everyone will go buy it, get it home and open it only to find an empty box. It will be awesome.

It could've died, it could've all been behind us. But now, they had to dig it up and go for some sort of frankenstein action on it. My god, what have they done.

It'd be better if it were filled with something related to the game. Like a dollar bill and a pack of gum.

Health regen (called ego) works similar to modern shooters, shrink ray gun, rail gun, has the football field from duke 3d, 2k games were friends with 3d realms and acquired the game and worked on it.
Jon St John is the voice of Duke!
The above stream has shown a decent amount of gameplay, different swag for the game (a sweet beltbuckle, shirt, bottle of steroids), and an interview with a dev which gave the above information and a bit more. It will be saved and streamable from the channel once it finishes so you can watch it later.

I think Gearbox could do well with this after a strong showing with Borderlands. Both are unreal based engine games, depending on the progress and mess left over they might actually get this out in 2011.

I don't think they can afford a delay and I imagine someone high up knows this as well. The minute they say "Pushed back" it becomes vapor ware in the eye's of everyone waiting for it... again.

I'm not sure whether I should be surprised or not at how much of a coherent game they actually showed in the demo.

Heck, seeing that has me thinking about scrounging up my old Duke 3D disks and reinstalling eDuke32. I'm down with a Steam version and a commerical box to frame, unopened, on my wall next to the comps.

I can't wait for the first time they push back the release date. I wonder how much of the past decade they're using in this?

Oh, I like that term, "by his balls of steel".  I so hope they actually DO release it, and don't fuck it up with too much consoleitis. I so want to relive duke's humour with a more updated (and flexible) engine. Please please please please please...
