Gearbox Delays Duke Nukem Forever Until Summer

[Ghengis John]

Another delay? Looks like the guys that have their preorders are going to have to wait a little bit longer.

Additionally:

IT BEGINS.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

I'm kind of happy this happened. One more delay, just to cement it's reputation lol.

 

[Extragorey]

Best way to break the news ever.
Of course, I think they delayed it deliberately just for kicks. Or a test of the target audience's commitment.

 

[tehweave]

I think that we can wait one month. At least gearbox is delaying it one month as opposed to "When it's done." They're a competent team, they made borderlands... I'm guessing if we do see another delay, it's still coming out well before christmas.

I love how this video announcement is a tongue in cheek joke, but in the next one he'll actually be uncomfortable. It'll be like:

"Look guys. *looks down* I know... We... We.. Uh... *shuffles feet* We said it'd be coming out on the 14th but... *wipes sweaty palms on pants* Look... It's just that... It's hard, you know? We just... *puts face in hands* We just need MORE TIME... *starts crying* It's... It's... Not done... I just... I just... *runs off screen* I CAN'T DO IT!!! *gunshot* *camera man screams*"

Haha, at least gearbox has a sense of humor.

 

[RDubayoo]

Oh, God, it's happening again!!!

 

[LordOrin]

IT BEGINS.

lol, I'd just said this out loud to myself.

Anyway it can't come out in June, it's release is supposed to cause the world to end in 2012.

 

[Withall]

Yes! Reality is OK again! I was worried for a second.

 

[Deadyawn]

I actually think it would be better if it is never actually released. Thats not because i dont want to play it (I do) but it would be of much greater entertainment value if DN Forever is never released. That would be frickin hilarious!

 

[senorfatso]

June 14th of what year?

 

[Valok]

/Sigh

Yeah yeah, we all knew that would happen..

 

[The Seldom Seen Kid]

So are they actually working on a game at all, or have they been trolling us all this time?

 

[Roland07]

Was the concept for this game developed while grave-robbing a pyramid or something? It is cursed. I would not be surprised if the Gearbox studio, with all data relating to Duke Nukem, and all the staff who worked on it, are killed by a freak accident before launch. I won't believe it's out until Australia or Germany bans it.

Unless this is a publicity stunt.

 

[JWAN]

That's it guys, our hopes are dashed. Duke ain't coming, tear down the banners and give the cake to the dog.

Hehehehehe...I kept waiting for him to do something, but stopped because it felt like his crazy eyes were staring into my soul. O_O

Its samuel L Jackson

That stare gives kittens heart-attacks

I figured and I am ok with it. Because it will be awesome, offensive and everything uptight, Birkenstock/v neck shirt wearing rights groups leaders will despise.

 

[Idocreating]

Normally i'd be annoyed, but Gearbox's humour makes up for it.

 

[Nightfire3230]

I'm sad. I guess it's a good thing because I wont have school when it comes out.

 

[Shadowtek]

is this because people are having a fit over the content?

 

[Nmil-ek]

I swear the moment people pop this disc into their systems all theres going to be is an FMV of Randy Pitchford laughing in our faces "You really though it was coming din't you AHAHAHAHA"

 

[Toasty Virus]

OH THE IRONY.

Better game in the long run? I'm happy.

 

[kidigus]

Maby this game was just cursed from the start to never come out, can you think of any other reason?
