I loved Duke Nukem, but this joke's gone way too far. The game won bloody awards ffs, and had never even been developed. I hope this goes away, I hope we never see hide nor hair of this campy nonsensically womanizing half-witted idea. I most sincerely cannot wait for this to finally breathe it's final sigh and fade into long lost obscurity, FOREVER.

They made me bitter about DNF by year 4, by the time they started saying that the only thing keeping the game from release was a box art decision I'd already figured out that this was a big stupid gag, now it's an annoyance whenever it's raised as a question. This is the second time I've seen this "controversial" title mentioned, yet again, today.

Duke Nukem is dead, let's just let him stay that way now, please, and remember the good old days when his games actually existed and were a fun exercise in college level raunchiness and "slightly better than DOOM" game play.

Unless the game is done, 3D Realms needs to shut their mouths. They already have one foot jammed in there and it seems they are attempting to shove the other in there as well.

I gotta admit I just want to laugh at this for a while, I could then even use it in every day conversation.

Duke Nukem Forever was really Dante's Inferno viral marketing which started 12 years ago?

My god...EA are brilliant!
You're absolutely right! And get this!

I may have evidence that links EA to Watergate...

Goddamn EA, is there anything they won't do to sell a game!?

I think sloth gave up on DNF, saying 'Damn, those guys are lazy!'

A reminder that "Duke Nukem doesn't stay down for long"
That's is a fucking laff riot!

If I were in charge of the Duke Nukem franchise, I'd take the property back to it's roots as a side-scroll shooter and design something resembling Shadow Complex, with the Nukem scenery and personality (and Jon St. Jon). I'd release a number of $10 episodes on XBL, PSN, Steam and D2D. Then, and only if then, the game garners any valid attention, THEN I would revive the DNF project. Otherwise, there is zero reason for anyone to give two shits about it except for the sake of cashing in on memes and nostalgia.

....? Why? It'll be an utterly generic shooter, dude. 3D realms fucked it up far to much for any advancement or evolution to occur.

This completely ties in with my belief that EA is the legit front for SPECTRE....

DAMN YOU Blofeld, you and your stinking cat!

Dude, NO ONE WANTS IT ANYMORE.

It's like Diablo 3, 10 year to long... Duke....wayyyyy to long.

Now I am all for Duke Nukeum being made into upcoming game designers to do a final project of "game play" footage for the rest of time as a joke. But real game? No one wants it.

Fuck this, no one gives a shit about this game anymore. Duke Nukem is fucking dead and any attempt at revival will be horrible because games have evolved so much since 1998. I loved the original but just fucking turn off the life support already and have it die with what little dignity it has left.

You can't see or hear me right now, but let me assure you that I've got my eyes closed, my fingers stuffed in my ears, and going "LALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU LALALALA!!!" really loud.

By time it comes out (hey, they have to release it some time) it'll either be one of the biggest sellers of the millenium and completely suck or do worse than a hardcore title on the Wii while being totally awesome. There's no other option.
