Since we have a black president now, I predict that the next generation of alternate reality films and TV shows will feature scenes of people happily playing DNF as the "shit be crazy here" indicator. Just sayin.
Who gives a shit about 3drealms. The IP for Duke is the important thing, and now that it can be pushed to a real software house that actually completes shit, it'll get done.
No more fucking around, Duke released by 2015, you heard it here first.
From http://duke.a-13.net/, how the world has changed from when DNF was announced to its demise. Quite funny and sad. Every Final Fantasy Game. Every Grand Theft Auto game. Every Zelda. Every Sims. Every version of Halo. Nearly every Sony Playstation. The entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Every Marvel Comics movie ever released. Britney Spears entire music career.
And in this timespan length, the entirety of World War 2 began and ended, including the development of the atom bomb. Etc Etc.
Sounds similar to what's happening with Gran Turismo 5 now. "Prologue" was released over a year ago and we were supposed to get the full version by now. That got pushed up to this fall, and now it's March of 2010...maybe.
I would love to think it was some kind of prank. If 3D Realms pulled that off, it would be one of the greatest ever. But, it's probably not. They only way I see it coming out is if they sell the name and the work they have so far to another developer. But who's gonna buy it?
Isn't writing about DNF what video game writers do when they've lost their last tiny little shred of credibility?
