Well, burning 14 DVD's per box is taking more time than anticipated.

As it is, I don't mind. I just plunked down change for Portal 2, the little extra time to save up for DNF will fit nicely.
When they announce they are changing engines, then I will rage.

Randy Pitchford is a breath of fresh air from George Broussard. Not only is he releasing the game but he's well humored and self deprecating about it.

When George Broussard was in charge of Duke Nukem Forever, he was (according to sources) solely to blame for extending delays by having obsessive compulsive tendencies [http://www.wired.com/magazine/2009/12/fail_duke_nukem/all] to change and add nonstop. He would then all of a sudden decide to outright scrap years of work. He also had some sort of attention deficit disorder for losing track of all the things he was doing. He was also known to flip out and get hostile when fans or reporters asked or joked about delays.

I have to hand it to them- Gearbox have a sense of humour. Guess that's a prerequisite for working on Duke Nukem!

Shame about the extra month, but it's not catastrophic. It's not like it'll take another year... or will it.... o_O

CD-R said:
I'd rather they delay it and make sure it's polished rather than release a shoddy product. We've already waited 12 years a few more months won't matter. It works for Blizzard, I don't think they've ever released abad game.But this game better be amazing. There's no excuse now.
Agreed 100%

They made an hour of gameplay for conventions, knocked together a few trailers. This game doesn't exist, it'll get delayed til April 1st 2012.

Bahahahaha! This video was damn funny! I don't think this game should ever actually come out! I'm pretty sure the people who really wanted it back in the day don't give a toss anymore (10+ years is enough time for interest to wane), and the rest of us will lose out on one of the most hilarious running gags in gaming!

....but I suppose if there are still people who truly wanna see this game happen, then June is just around the corner!
