$500,000 bonus for Duke Forever by 12/31/06

[mailman187666]

when/if this game ever does come out, i think i would buy a copy not only because i liked the first duke nukem 3d, but because its like a piece of history as the game that took the longest to make and the game that nobody thought would ever come out. The standards for first person shooters have changed drastically since the game was first announced. I think the times are changing faster than they are actually working on the game.

I'm bookmarking this thread and will be looking for that video when it's released.

Oh it'll happen =)

If I don't have the money for it at the time, once I do I will eat it, and you will all see =D.

Maybe I can even get some of the film students at my school to record it. That way it'll be nice quality to.

And if it does - it'll probably suck because it was rushed to market.

After 10 years.. this has become an oxymoron.

The odd thing is that it probably will be rushed to the market and people will wonder how the hell that is humanly possible.

I remember several months ago, someone started a thread exclaiming something like, "FINALLY, DNF is coming out this year. They said so" And I'm thinking, "Are you really that gullible?"

The funny thing is that in racing circuits, DNF also stands for "Did Not Finish." You can say the same thing about 3D Realms and this game.

Speaking of games that've been delayed so long that it's a joke, did Starcraft: Ghost get officially cancelled, or is that thing still actually in development?

According to Gamespot, George Broussard says they won't rush it to market! That is hilarious, considering it is a mere 10 years into development. Here is the link:

I read an article a couple of moths ago (an interview with the developers) that said it was still coming out. There are rumors that it's being ported over to the new generation consoles.. but if I remember.. Blizzard said no. They said there MAY be a 360 release, but it won't be "reworked" for it.

It was canned back in december. They made the announcement in the middle of E3 to try to hide it. Basicly the game was rubbish and it wasn't worth throwing any more money at it.

i could almost swear i remember places like EB Games taking preorder $ from people back in the day for DNF.....I wonder if anyone still has $5 down for their copy.....?

It's funny. I took several pre-orders myself, when I worked at Babbages, shortly after the game was first announced, back in 2001. The store closed down in 2003.

Wonder if those people ever got their ten bucks back?

Even more deranged - I wonder how many people moved their reservation to another store, and are still waiting to this very day?

This reminds me of Chinese Democracy. The Guns N' Roses album that Axl Rose has been working on for the past 12 years and has cost over 13 million in production costs so far.

At least that's supposed to be out this fall...

Ya never know...

I remember reading about "Prey" in pcgamer back in 1997 being the unreal killer. Look how long that one took. Then again...I also remember when Warcraft III was going to be a point and click adventure game with a gimp orc who had a ponytail.

I may have to record a video of me going in and asking to Reserve DNF XD Im starting to think that they locked the Development team and a room and said knock on the door when you are done. Problem is, they forgot the food, and the team has been dead since 1997.
