Surprisingly, 3D Realms explicitly notes that it continues to work on "the development of" Duke Nukem Forever, though "it released the majority of its employees working on the development" because of a "lack of funding to sustain the high level of development."

Suck on that non-believing d-bags.

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

[bobrocks95]

Dammit squall you act like your job is to disagree with OP. This is for the ******s that say stuff like "It'll never happen, it's dead".

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

NO YOU!!!!


is it worrying when even my sister knows who duke nukem is??

 

[bobrocks95]

yes. It's a game with strippers.

 

[PCXL-Fan]

I've head from someone that so far duke nukem forver doesn't look too impressive. I really hope it isn't true.

A great duke game needs only 3 things:

1. Duke
2. Aliens
3. A great collection of one-liners

Everything else is just gravy.

Orders are in from HQ, You are to stab them for disrespecting his lord and master Nukem.

Did you see the video by one of the animators? Pure jizz in video form. And the good jizz too. Not the bad.

 

[snickothemule]

Yeah, good news indeed. But damn it I just want to play the damn thing. Some of the development stuff that was shown during the fiasco with the firing of the staff and legal shenanigans was looking pretty sweet. A little rough around the edges, but some of the animation and set pieces (the pig cops running all over the joint, not just at duke) looked cool.

The new effort, titled "Duke Begins," was part of the October 2007 Agreement that saw Take-Two provide 3D Realms with $2.5 million. That sum was paid July 2008 in order to "help fund the development of the DNF game," with 3D Realms having previously said the money was "in connection with another agreement for an unannounced game."

On Duke Nukem Forever

The developer also shed additional light on negotiations with Take-Two regarding a 3D Realms-developed Xbox 360 edition of the then-PC only Duke Nukem Forever. Along with the Xbox 360 port, the negotiations included the addition of multiplayer and the funding necessary for 3D Realms to complete Duke Nukem Forever PC within 12 months.

3D Realms says that it requested $6 million to "cover the costs to complete both the Xbox 360 and PC versions" of the notoriously long-in-development title, with Take-Two supposedly agreeing to this amount. However, Take-Two lowered the amount of $5 million, and, "at the last minute (on April 22 [2009])" further lowered it to $2.5 million.

oO Sounds pretty contradictory by 3DR.

heh, every thing needs more duke...

But sadly... he's not the fixitall perfect ingredient that Chuck Norris is. i would never play those console Duke Nukem games that came around 1999-2001 or whenever. Too lazy to even find the correct date. And that had all the 3 ingredients.

I think so. Was it this one?

"Hey can we have $6 million?"
"Not quite sure we can manage that. How about $5 million?"
"I think we can work with that, thanks."

10 months later

"Hey, thanks for the loan you promised to give us! We've already spent about $4 million but we're almost done!"
"Yeah, actually, we're only going to give you $2.5 million."
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU"


@ PCXL-Fan:
That would be the video footage but it doesn't have the kick-ass Duke Nukem Theme by Megadeth to add to the experience.

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

Fact: 3DRealms has not seen a penny, towards finishing DNF, from Take Two.

 

[Exodus]

It'd be funny if the game sucked balls of steel.

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

You're just bitter that i've outposted you.

 

[bobrocks95]

It'd be funny if the game sucked balls of steel.

You know it's pretty much guaranteed to sell pretty well due to the notoriety behind it, brand recognition, curiosity, etc. Even if it had only moderate praise (like 8/10), it would probably sell millions of copies pretty fast.

Would that be a good thing?

For games that suck to sell anyways... That's why gaming industry is quickly becoming worse, they don't even have to try anymore. *sigh*

But still, let the guy die in peace...

NO YOU!!!!

The Duke's an icon all women should know, just like Al Bundy.

Anyway, I'd love to have a macho FPS again, that doesn't take itself seriously yet is highly entertaining. Like the old days of ******* Rampage, Duke Nukem and even Serious Sam.

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

Find a copy of Shadow Warrior Cid, just as entertaining and has a win32 port on JonoF's site.
