I thought at first "finally finished" meant the project was ended, sealed in a metal box, and buried under metres of concrete.

But no, the saga drags on..

If you mean 'finished' the same way Daniel Plainview was 'finished' at the end of There Will be Blood, then yes

Better question: Does anyone care?
It's almost sad really. I loved Duke Nukem as a kid and I wanted this game so bad... I've gone so in different though. THe only thing keeping mmy hoped up of this getting done is Gearbox working the projectm and even that doesn't work to stir my apathy much.

I don't think we do care, I think we want to care but simply can't muster the empathy

I'm a "believe it when I see it" type of girl, so umm, yeah... I'll believe when I see it, or rather when I'm playing it.
I would kinda like to see this happen, as Duke Nukem was an integral part of gaming childhood (and not just the 3D one, boys and girls, but its predecessors as well), and I spent a few weekends playing deathmatches with my father and sister. But it'll happen when (and if) it happens. In the meantime, sill plenty of great games to play.

I think the biggest "hype" about the game is that its initials are DNF or "Did Not Finish", so even if it is finally released, it will probably live up to its alter ego, and not be finished, you know, since it was originally announced as having a PlayStation 1 version. I wonder if they still plan on releasing that, LOL?

I, too, loved Duke as a child. My father and I used to spend hours playing Time to Kill - it is the only game I've ever been able to play with him.

/sigh

Oh well... Time goes on...

/sobs quietly


Back in the days of the original Dooms, when you didn't need to aim to fire up. I remember me and my dad beating level after level. Now his reflexes are not so good... *Sniffles* I feel your pain

It might mean it is, but they may just be messing with us.

Or they could be correct, but it still only comes out a day after Armogedden.

Which happens to be the same day Episode 3 comes out :p

I don't think it'll be released in '10, I think Gearbox might have a trailer for us. We'll see.

12 years hasn't really dampened it for me much, it's always in the back of my sub-conscious so I do care a little bit. People are kidding themselves if they say they really don't want to see the foul-mouthed king of alien-killing American hero in a modern day game.

The gameplay was never a huge part of Duke Nukem 3D. Duke himself was the best part.

Duke Nukem Forever can't actually be released, Half Life 2 Episode 3 needs a friend on the vaporware farm!
