Duke Nukem Forever: 2007?
 

It's that time of the decade again!
News about the most anticipated video game in the history of mankind:

Not happening.

People have been saying this every year since god knows when. I'll believe it when I see actual proof or hear an official announcement.

edit: Okay, scepticism suspended!

Is anyone even remotely going to care? I kind of enjoyed Duke Nukem 3D, and I still have it on my shelves somewhere... but it's been a long time... games moved on, and there are a million and one FPS to play these days.

yeah dude, i think if they were releasing the game, a 200x125 GIF would be exactly what they'd use to make the announcement, so this is probably real!

If they actually had something, this would go beyond Daikatana levels of industry incompetence.

This would force me to buy a new videocard the same way as the Radiant Silvergun/Ikaruga sequel will force me to buy a x360.

People just want to know how far you can go with strippers this time around, that's about it.

"HOLY SHIT, AUTHENTIC V-GAME BREASTS!!!!! No more 2-D or fake japanese ones for me! Duke's the winner, hands down." - Everyone waiting for Duke Forever.

I thought Duke Nukem 3D was a fantastic game =D Unsure why! Maybe because it and the expansion was HUUUUUGE.

Things might just be a waste of money though. Hopefully the project has just been idled for some time, because spending TEN YEARS worth of cash on a title is kind of a rough thing on your wallet, no matter what the industry.

Also, the link to the forums (to Gamasutra) doesn't work for the new screenshots =I

What new screenshots?

Krelian's post links to a forum with some dude linking to some screenshots. But the link fails.

Scratch that. In-game shot. Either way, bad link.

Link works now. It's just one shot -- the one in this thread. IGNORE ME~ =U

I don't think there were any other screenshots, just the same thumbnail of an action figure that's in the first post.

Yeah, I noticed, like, right after I posted '~'

I'm sure there are some "new screenshots" from 1999 lol ;D

If this ever does come out, it'll flop I'm sure. It'd be raw eye-candy like Prey. FPS games need gameplay, and hopefully, they will receive a decent story. Half-life is the only FPS I can think of that developed an interesting story, to be honest... Or good voice acting.

Farcry still makes me cringe.

Gamespot ran a story yesterday wherein they spoke to George Broussard, da prez of 3D REALMS.
Maybe they'll release some footage soon. OMG.

I gave up all hope of this game being released a few years ago, and it's going to take a hell of a lot more than a tiny screenshot to remove my skepticism that this game will ever be released. Personally, in my opinion, until 3D Realms actually put out a statement giving the game a firm release date, this game doesn't exist.

Who cares, as long as it's fun. I liked Duke because it was a good ol' fashioned "kick ass, take names, and that's it" shooting game. No story to speak of, just an old school fun time. If it comes out, I would at the very least expect it to be good old school fun.

It's like Duke says - Time to kick ass and chew bubblegum... And I'm all out of gum

If the story sucks, it'll need good gameplay =p Hope for wonderful physics and lotsa fun ways to kill stuff. I know that storyline isn't an epic part of the Duke Nukem series. Been playing 'em since the first! =U

Someone else said it before the Duke. I think it might have been a pro wrestler. Even they might not have been the first.

gah, why does Duke look this weird? D:

I mean, they butchered the ultra-macho design for something... I can't even recognise. D:

errrrrr.... is that even Duke Nukem? I'm not sure anymore.

Also, I just hope Duke Nukem forever won't be the next Daikatana...

but I guess there's hope; I mean, it took 10 years for Prey to show up...

Yeah, and how awesome was that game!

BTW, Roddy says it much, much better :D

Hey now, you have to give Prey some credit.
After all, it was discontinued, then re-started with another development team on a totally different engine. I think all they kept was the portal technology, but even that was altered and enhanced.

Duke, on the other hand, has been in development with the same team (for all we know).

That photo looks like a strange Duke action figure... :annoyed:

Eh, we'll just have to wait and see, I guess.

*pulls out watch*

I'm waiting this game when 1998,is looks will be never release it

it has been announced that 3D realms would develop the sequel to Prey.

...see ya in 2017?

When I looked up information on Duke Nukem Forever earlier I found a bunch of posts on random sites with people basically saying stuff like "if this game would have come out 7 years ago it would have been something, now nobody cares"; lots o negative responses like that.

I guess it just baffles me; I mean the more games that come out the merrier right? And if it turns out to be a sweet game then I might have to check it out lol

Just wanted to get that out lol
So now for the cool stuff,

Found that picture and loved the style, that's the real reason I posted ~
Oh and when I was looking around I read up on the Duke3D High Resolution Pack; pretty sweet for nostalgia, it's a free project people keep updating, to make Duke3d play with today's computers with improved graphics etc~

looks like v3 of the pack will be released in a couple weeks?
