    I dunno, you couldn't really do the PS9 joke without the multiplatform announcement.

    Believe me, it's been done.
    But more than that, it was the "coming out on the phantom" joke that was made the most.

    Didn't Megadeth do that theme? Definitely one of the best ever.

    I could see DNF actually being good if they finish it anytime soon. All they need is enough self-referential humor.

    Sidenote: this thread made me pull out Manhattan Project again. DNMP might be the best 2.5D sidescroller ever. I think I like it more than Viewtiful Joe.

    You know, after watching that 2001 trailer, it made me realize:

    They quoted both Blair Witch and Alien 3. Never noticed that before.

    Also, Duke Nukem has the best theme music ever.

    but now we are horribly off topic.

    Anyways I plan to buy DNF when it comes out. If nothing more than to say I have it. I am sure the game will suck but it will be fun in a "This is what took them 10+ years to make?" kind of way.

    The interest that has built-up on that $10 should cover the full-cost of the game when it finally emerges.

    Fuck, never mind the interest. He shoudl just get it for free for producing a pre-order from 2001, just for the fact that it's from 2001.

    Assuming an interest rate of 7% (which is a bit high), you'd get about $5 of interest. Assuming they honored the pre-order, I wonder if they would be willing to take that into consideration? :P

    The article says they've made "significant progress" with the game in the last year, as they started focusing on a more "realistic" development since they were aiming too high before. If they want to actually remove this bad image of themselves and their game, and get people interested again, they should just show us some fucking screenshots. Their "we're not showing any screenshots until the game is done" attitude is only hurting them, for God's sake.

    As long as this has been in development, where on fucking earth have they gotten the money to fund a development cycle this long? And to build off that, just how many copies are they going to have to sell to recoup that dev funding?

    * In the not too distant future *

    A young man has just bought DNF and races home to play this legendary game. He pulls into his drive-way and runs inside. He gets comfortable on his couch. The young man makes sure he has his snacks and beverage of choice handy. Then the young man inserts the game disc into his Phantom 2: Electric Boogaloo. What he sees next is not what he expects. A video pops up on his tv screen. It is the 3D Realms Dev team. George Broussard's clone speaks up and says, "You just got Punk'd!". The rest of the Dev team bursts out in laughter. The young man cries.

    *BUZZ*Dude, I am from the future. 2101. When war was beggining. The Hive was pissed because DNF had yet to be released. The hive was pissed. We had no time to survive, we had to make. Then, after taking all the Zigs off of the 3D realms ruins, we found it. DNF. and it was awesome. The game slowly got graphically better, with the levels being named after what year they were made in, ending in 2020. Just wait, you'll get it. *ZAAAP!*

    Interesting that this is still coming out. I remember that at one point they announced that a sequel would be coming out. Now the sequel at the very least won't be something that follows up a non-existent game.

    3D Realms is a really small studio. That plus the fact that they produced Prey (it being their IP and all), a few Duke Nukem spinoffs (on the GBA, Mobile and PC) and the Max Payne games, has probably gained them a decent amount of money to continue funding Duke Nukem Forever.

    Well, look at it this way. By the time you finish law school, the game's probably going to be out and if Gamestop gives you any lip about it, sue them for 10 bucks.

    Now that would be funny.

    lol. I don't think I'll get any lip. Mostly just shocked and confused looks :)


    Slash, does Gamestop still have your 10 bucks?

    Probably not. I really, really doubt it. Oh well! It was worth $10 for the ridiculousness of having this preorder stub.

    Well, they do have adhesive-based lamination, where it's basically like a large piece of tape that you press the paper onto. But I d'no, I like the glass idea. I could put it in a frame!

    Hm... you're right... I haven't truly considered that the game might not come out in my lifetime. I think I'll wait until the text is juuuuust barely readable, then laminate it.
