Duke Nukem Forever

[chrisinajar]

"Duke Nukem Forever developer 3D Realms is shutting down, according to Shacknews. They cite 'a reliable source close to the company,' who said the developer is finished and employees have already been let go. It looks like all of the Duke Nukem Forever jokes are turning into reality; DNF might turn out to be the ultimate vaporware after all."
3D Realms' webmaster, Joe Siegler, confirmed the closing, saying that he didn't know about it even a day beforehand. Apogee and Deep Silver, who are working on a different set of Duke Nukem games (referred to as the Duke Nukem Trilogy) say they are not affected by the problems at 3D Realms.

DNF was officially first announced in April 1997

Hahahaha, DNF was finally cancelled... Best of luck to the developers who were working on it getting jobs in the future... "Wait, aren't you one of the guys who spent 12 years working on DNF, which was never released?..."!

You know, I totally called this, too. In a similar fashion, that is.

This game will never come out, Prey 2 will launch first, and then 3d Realms will go bankrupt from the fail.

I think if any given person didn't see this coming, they're retarded... DNF has won awards for clearly either being the greatest vaporware ever, or being an inside joke in the gaming industry.

Could have been cool, yeah maybe some one else should pick it up. Lets hope it isn't EA.

I would be fine with EA picking it up. I mean they picked up Brutal Legend, Mirror's Edge, etc. They do good stuff nowadays unlike Activision.

I believe the EA bash thread has already happened, and we concluded that they are shit. Please go there to argue on their behalf if you want
