buried as inaccurate - vulminiha, on 12/18/2007, -0/+279Personally, I think they're setting us up for the greatest rickroll of all time
- MrSketch, on 12/18/2007, -1/+208Close, but the game project was announced on April 25, 1997. Since then:
- The two Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity were proposed, authorized, announced, designed, launched and successfully landed upon Mars where they have been exploring the surface for over 2.5 years.
- When Duke Nukem Forever was announced, the fastest processor available to consumers was a 233Mhz Pentium. Since then the clock speed of consumer processors has increased over 16 times (32 times counting dual cores), and the fabrication process has decreased from 250nm to 65nm.
- Microsoft released 5 consumer-oriented versions of Windows and might release a Vista service pack or two before Duke Nukem Forever hits shelves.
- Adjusted for inflation, the average price of gas in the United States has doubled.
- Britney Spears' entire musical career as a pop star has taken place during Duke Nukem Forever's development.
- The International Space Station was assembled and has been orbiting Earth for over 8 years.
- The national debt has increased by over 3 trillion dollars.
- Approximately 509,373,306 people have died and 661,373,082 have been born.

- keviniskool, on 12/18/2007, -0/+84At this rate, we might get the game sometime before the universe implodes.

- Jeffler, on 12/18/2007, -1/+58Holy *****, that would be amazingly awesome of them IMHO
- Smaulz, on 12/19/2007, -0/+53Digg users getting laid? Let's not get carried away here...
- ieatsmurfs, on 12/18/2007, -0/+51So it's official the world is ending tomorrow.
- DemDude, on 12/18/2007, -0/+50Exactly!
So, technically, this means we'll just have to wait another six years for the fourth trailer! - strictnein, on 12/18/2007, -0/+45Depending on where he is, it could very well have been dark, so he avoided the bright ball of light in the sky.
- georgemason01, on 12/18/2007, -2/+47I don't see how this submission could have hit the front page anywhere else.
- craterburnsu, on 12/18/2007, -8/+52I see what you did there.

- cipherbob, on 12/18/2007, -0/+42Update from George B:
"Guys just to manage expectations...
This is a teaser. It's not a full blown trailer like the 2001 trailer (but something like that is coming). I tried to be clear about that in the message board post, so just bear in mind that it's a teaser :)
Enjoy."
http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=15819781 - leffunov, on 12/18/2007, -0/+40Do we even know what system this is for? Last time I was excited about this game it was for Windows 98.
- norman619, on 12/18/2007, -2/+42I hope to god it's not another crappy console port for the PC. Duke had his beginnings on the PC and it's only fitting that it be designed with the PC in mind.
/ grumbling about GOW as I walk away..... - Harrison88, on 12/18/2007, -1/+37Bahaha. Oh god... is this the end of the world?
- DeviateSeptum, on 12/18/2007, -3/+37Wow. If I was still a teenager and I might have really cared about this. Now I need to save my money for Depends instead of video games.
- YojimboJango, on 12/18/2007, -1/+35I never expected to see the day. I was expecting to play this in a nursing home 60 years from now.
- inactive, on 12/18/2007, -0/+33Geeks walking outside ?, it really is the apocalypse
- relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -8/+40*****
