- MrFisty, on 12/19/2007, -1/+22Damn, I was hoping no one remembered. Sigh, time to turn these As into Ds...

- MrsFisty, on 12/19/2007, -0/+22Actually the worst part is going to be trying to convince everyone on my old friends list to join my new one. That and they'll probably start with the whole "Are you really a girl? On Digg? Really? A girl? Wanna hook up sometime?" I'm gonna regret this.

Yes also a good game, Oh the multiplayer memories! Got to have a Classic gaming lan for sure.

What? - blapierre, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3Damn, those alien bastards are gonna pay for shooting up my ride!
- Wiinii, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2I didn't get the name Duke Nukem for play'n with cherry bombs.
- captoftheworld, on 12/20/2007, -1/+3It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I'm all outta gum.
- stelth, on 12/19/2007, -17/+269"It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum... and I'm all outta gum".
He's back and he looks better than ever.- whatthejish, on 12/19/2007, -0/+75I'd just like to point out that this isn't an original Duke quote. It was originally quipped by Roddy Piper in John Carpenter's "They Live." great zombie-ish flick, btw
- Charlotte_Web, on 12/19/2007, -1/+65Aren't most (if not all) of DN's quotes pilfered from movies?
- BobSutan, on 12/19/2007, -0/+6Roddy Piper & Ash (from the Evil Dead films & Army of Darkness) just to name a few.
- stelth, on 12/19/2007, -0/+9Yeah, I know. However, in the context of this story it's more than fitting. :)
- Charlotte_Web, on 12/19/2007, -1/+65Aren't most (if not all) of DN's quotes pilfered from movies?
- calon9, on 12/19/2007, -6/+3He's looking good, but he needs to work out his chest more or his arms less. He's looking out of proportion to his earlier years.
- Charlotte_Web, on 12/19/2007, -2/+21His voice at the end sounded pretty weak.
- Elranzer, on 12/19/2007, -0/+32Given how long the game was in development, the voice actor is now probably 80.
- SimonUK, on 12/20/2007, -1/+0Frank Spencer? Ooo Betty!
- Charlotte_Web, on 12/19/2007, -2/+21His voice at the end sounded pretty weak.
- llvllatrix, on 12/19/2007, -2/+11Screw the game, I can't wait to read the postmortem.
- willy3121, on 12/19/2007, -1/+12Yeah, it sure does look good compared to last time we saw him in an FPS.
(7 years ago) - NCSUspoon, on 12/19/2007, -6/+38Ugh, he looks better than before, but he looks horrible. You would think that with modern technology and in an age where bone can be cut by laser, wind can power cities, and cell phones and iPods meet they would at least show some respect to the Duke and not make him look completely fake. His body motions were completely wrong, his character modeling blew. This is all from a game which has been worked on for friggin ever. Honestly, how hard is it to release a good game when you already have teh storyline, character and villians lined up?
- krz9000, on 12/19/2007, -8/+4maybe you can point out to us what is so bad about the modell?
- colto, on 12/19/2007, -1/+20Sure. It looked like *****.
- lcmatt, on 12/19/2007, -1/+5Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that just all pre-rendered material? When we actually see some game play then I might believe that the game will come out. Until then 3DRealms are still the laughing stock of the games industry.
- rhinopig, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1I believe this is supposed to be in engine. http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/50457 said it was going to be 'gameplay' footage, which to me would imply a hud, but anyway it is probably in engine. If it's pre rendered then yeah... it looks pretty bad for pre rendering.
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -0/+6The head and hair - looks like a broken egg carton.
Arms and overall body detail looks ok, the blue jeans color look cartoonish.
- colto, on 12/19/2007, -1/+20Sure. It looked like *****.
- DemDude, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2That's just what I thought. We have seen better character models in-game ^^
I mean, not only does the body look way too cartoonish, but just the way his lips moved when he blew that smoke was pure ***** - phenom2k7, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2I agree, it looks crap.
- Scaryclouds, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1The shadows are all wrong!
- krz9000, on 12/19/2007, -8/+4maybe you can point out to us what is so bad about the modell?
- sotopheavy, on 12/19/2007, -1/+4It's not how it looks, its ***** Duke Nukem Forever! I can't wait!
- blipblopblip, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3If he still hasn't bought any bubble gum yet, I'm starting to doubt he ever had any!
- Jinno, on 12/20/2007, -0/+4Am I the only one that was expecting the line to be "It's about damned time."
- Reziarfg, on 12/20/2007, -1/+2Already done by Starcraft II. :P
- whatthejish, on 12/19/2007, -0/+75I'd just like to point out that this isn't an original Duke quote. It was originally quipped by Roddy Piper in John Carpenter's "They Live." great zombie-ish flick, btw
- Nudar, on 12/19/2007, -9/+119Hail to the king, baby!
- noots, on 12/19/2007, -2/+39he looks like Bruce Willis in the trailer... only with hair.
- Voodooraze, on 12/19/2007, -10/+1Dukem Nukem is the only man alive that could beat up Bruce Willis.
- dermarr5, on 12/19/2007, -19/+5Inaccurate. Chuck Norris.
- Elranzer, on 12/19/2007, -3/+17Chuck Norris is now uncool since he supports Huckabee.
- sleepwalkers, on 12/19/2007, -3/+18Who the hell is Dukem Nukem?
- MarkOfTheDead, on 12/19/2007, -1/+7Dukem Nukem Robots?
- GreyICE, on 12/19/2007, -0/+16Bruce Cambell could take on Bruce, Duke, and Chuck all at the same time, and win.
- giveer, on 12/19/2007, -1/+3Bruce Campbell would be even better.
- ericrous, on 12/19/2007, -0/+10That's not even fair. Bruce beat an entire undead army once. Unleashing him on the living would just be cruel.
- dermarr5, on 12/19/2007, -19/+5Inaccurate. Chuck Norris.
- Voodooraze, on 12/19/2007, -10/+1Dukem Nukem is the only man alive that could beat up Bruce Willis.
- HailToTheKing, on 12/19/2007, -4/+1and this relates to Bruce Campbell and the Evil Dead Trilogy how?
- noots, on 12/19/2007, -2/+39he looks like Bruce Willis in the trailer... only with hair.
- nicksawick1, on 12/19/2007, -5/+245I don't believe it...
- Coven, on 12/19/2007, -1/+28*head asplode*
- nyx210, on 12/19/2007, -5/+8*Yawn*... Sorry this joke used to be funny, but now it's just old.
- spudnic, on 12/19/2007, -20/+6I think they called it Duke Nukem forever because it'll be FOREVER till it's released
zing- ImWatchingYou, on 12/19/2007, -1/+13Bad use of zing. Dugg down.
- spudnic, on 12/19/2007, -13/+5It was supposed to be bad use, and a bad joke. That was the point.
- ImWatchingYou, on 12/19/2007, -1/+13Bad use of zing. Dugg down.
- spudnic, on 12/19/2007, -20/+6I think they called it Duke Nukem forever because it'll be FOREVER till it's released
- mattrh, on 12/19/2007, -1/+33I dont believe it either. Its a fake game. Not coming out. ever.
- ehal256, on 12/19/2007, -9/+1LOL nub, why did they purchase a quake 2 license, an unreal 2.0 license, and an unreal 3.0 license for it?
- giveer, on 12/19/2007, -1/+7Good call. Compensation for a tiny penis? Just guessin'...
- c0nker, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2They didn't get unreal 3.0... they heavily modified UE 2.5 to the point where it looks like 3.0, somewhat.
- ehal256, on 12/19/2007, -9/+1LOL nub, why did they purchase a quake 2 license, an unreal 2.0 license, and an unreal 3.0 license for it?
- texpundit, on 12/19/2007, -1/+5HABEEB IT!
- Klarth, on 12/19/2007, -1/+2Twinkie house?
- metaknite, on 12/20/2007, -4/+1You know, its one thing to not believe in God because of the lack of evidence. But the link takes you to EVIDENCE that this video does in fact exist.
- networkingisfun, on 12/20/2007, -1/+3I still don't believe it. the visuals were very poor...
- ripHST, on 12/20/2007, -0/+0yeah, reminds me of the chrono trigger 3-d project. total fake
- lordtyros, on 12/19/2007, -83/+32Anyone else feel like they outgrew Duke in the time it took for him to get here?
- z00k, on 12/19/2007, -8/+54... No.
- mlwarrior, on 12/19/2007, -8/+4No.
- nyx210, on 12/19/2007, -17/+7What the hell's a Duke Nukem?
- FloppyLlamaDigg, on 12/19/2007, -1/+33Get off my lawn!
- vawksel, on 12/19/2007, -2/+16I know you're getting dugg down, but that's EXACTLY the feeling I had when I read the title story on Digg... I had this feeling "hmm, that was 10 years ago that I played dukenukem3d... I don't have any of the old excitement from that game anymore"
I've kind of moved on... Played a lot of great games since then. They should of released 2 to 4 new Duke Nukem games in the last 10 years, with the technology of those years instead of just continuously throwing the games away. - bbardlbradd, on 12/19/2007, -1/+3I don't think it's that he's been gone, I think it's that he's really late that turns me off.
- ericrous, on 12/19/2007, -0/+7Ole' Duke HAS to be in his 50's by now. It's like watching Sylvester Stallone still trying to box in a Rocky movie.
- bigsteve, on 12/19/2007, -0/+9I know! Imagine if he did another Rambo!
...
- bigsteve, on 12/19/2007, -0/+9I know! Imagine if he did another Rambo!
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -1/+5I hope they have added more funny one-liners and comedy,
that is what set apart Duke from other FPS. - Omano, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3This game was not that cool even when i downloaded it from the local pirate BBS. So yes, this game is a little late for me. But i am sure there will be allot of "younger" kid who love this. so, to each there own i guess.
- Dracusis, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1***** no.
- evil-doer, on 12/19/2007, -20/+7the site is dead. any mirrors?
- graeh, on 12/19/2007, -1/+3That's not a pansy hardware set up running that site either - pretty impressive that the duke trailer has hosed the comments on the site and slowed it to a crawl.
- stelth, on 12/19/2007, -1/+2The Shack is the only place holding this content at the moment, so it's getting hammered by everyone coming in from Digg. The site works, but is a bit slower than normal.
- mooseblaster, on 12/19/2007, -37/+6What the heck does 'park my bricks' mean anyway?
- Battleloser, on 12/19/2007, -2/+69Something so manly only Duke Nukem understands it!
- Ret0x, on 12/19/2007, -2/+34I believe it means "Take a dump"
- Lochie, on 12/19/2007, -5/+4Hang a *****.
- FishHammer, on 12/19/2007, -3/+16you're reading too much into it, think 2nd grade humor here
- AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -4/+1That must be the crowd they're going for, the rest of us have grown up and forgotten about the game by now.
- kmusser, on 12/19/2007, -3/+13Well he's looking for an alien toilet for his bricks... you know like if he was going to "***** bricks." I imagine its kinda like the quote "I'm going to rip off your head and ***** down your neck" he had from the previous game.
- skyfire1, on 12/19/2007, -0/+14When you figure it out, you will ***** bricks.
- pault107, on 12/19/2007, -1/+2Dropping the kids off at the pool.
- mattcoady, on 12/19/2007, -2/+2No one knows what it means, but it's provocative
- JoeViturbo, on 12/20/2007, -1/+1seriously? Could they have picked a worse quote?
- TyroPyro, on 12/19/2007, -7/+800Hell yeah baby!
Next trailer: 2011- Noctem, on 12/19/2007, -6/+21No kidding. The last trailer was in 2001 running the Unreal engine. *yawn* - Not getting my hopes up for this one. At least we've got actual in-game Starcraft 2 videos to swoon over :)
- Marcsib, on 12/20/2007, -2/+1It's still based on the Unreal engine, changed somewhat. Confirmed here: http://blog.shacknews.com/blogarticle.x/50481
- Pritchard, on 12/19/2007, -1/+43It released in 2012. By then we'll know just what brought the apocalypse.
- texpundit, on 12/19/2007, -0/+26"And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
And I saw, and behold a game box: and he that was on the box had a cigar; and a gun was given unto him: and he went forth, ripping off heads and ***** down necks."
-- Revelation 6: 1-2
Yep, actual release of DN:F triggers the Apocalypse. - Disastorm, on 12/19/2007, -0/+17I guess the Mayans knew about DNF all along.
- texpundit, on 12/19/2007, -0/+26"And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
- SpaceDreamer, on 12/19/2007, -2/+14the 2001 trailer was actually more interesting
- xjuanm, on 12/19/2007, -1/+5This is a teaser not a trailer
- anotherjeff, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1Im so excited for the next trailer.
- X9001, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1Seriously, why the ***** is anyone still taking this game seriously?
- Noctem, on 12/19/2007, -6/+21No kidding. The last trailer was in 2001 running the Unreal engine. *yawn* - Not getting my hopes up for this one. At least we've got actual in-game Starcraft 2 videos to swoon over :)
- TheLaughMachine, on 12/19/2007, -8/+27Duke looks great but I'm not getting my hopes up until an actual release date is announced.
- mike17032, on 12/19/2007, -2/+21Hell at this point you shouldnt get your hopes up until you are holding the finished copy in your hands after seeing that it ran on your system.
- martz, on 12/19/2007, -2/+55Looks great? I thought the graphics looked horrible. Definately not several years development worth.
- FreDre, on 12/19/2007, -2/+5They restarted the production in 2004, they only had 3 years of development on this version. I think the graphics looks nice, what did you expected? They plan to release it also for XBOX 360.
- sl123000, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2By the time this game is out, Xbox 360 would be last generation...
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -1/+2But how does it play?
Cool graphics are one thing, but if it is all eye-candy and no fun to play - then it wont sell.- Promantarius, on 12/20/2007, -0/+450 yearly remakes of various sporting games disagree with you :)
- FreDre, on 12/19/2007, -2/+5They restarted the production in 2004, they only had 3 years of development on this version. I think the graphics looks nice, what did you expected? They plan to release it also for XBOX 360.

- umrgregg, on 12/19/2007, -0/+8Or down your throat?
- lacronicus, on 12/19/2007, -0/+1I'd trust this more than a release date with as often as they're thrown around these days.

- graeh, on 12/19/2007, -3/+209At least he didn't sell out to highbrow humour.

- philipkaplan, on 12/19/2007, -71/+5 I hear that in this version, Duke says "*****" because he identifies with the black community. Hmm, maybe it's "*****".
Can anyone verify this?- AmICoolNow, on 12/19/2007, -0/+5No, they can't verify it. Because it isn't true.
- CrimsonFate, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1Actually, it is.

- Hickeroar, on 12/19/2007, -12/+3Could be the latest Duke line *ever*.
- mattcoady, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2It is the latest. The trailer only came out today.
- JoeViturbo, on 12/20/2007, -1/+1you mean lamest Duke line *ever*
- Hickeroar, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1Yeah, typo. Meant lamest...
- orlyfactor, on 12/19/2007, -4/+58Thanks for repeating what I just heard. Almost forgot it! You're better than an iPhone!
- dagooh, on 12/19/2007, -4/+4I'm glad he did, I couldn't understand half of what Duke was saying... Really...
- m0neybags, on 12/20/2007, -1/+1Thanks for making sure there's a sarcastic comment in response to anyone repeating content from any article, ever. It's not as though this doesn't happen every ***** digg.
- volve, on 12/19/2007, -0/+25That really is an awful line... :( I'm disappointed - so much so that I feel the need to register this disappointment with a large group of strangers.
3D Realms have a lot to live up to. :)- ProfessorFoo, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2Sounds like something Duke would say to me. I'm guessing you've never played Duke Nukem 3d? He's definitely not a poet.
- RyanElston, on 12/19/2007, -2/+10I remember the most badass moment ever in video games history was in the first Duke 3d game where he happens upon a boss battle and says "I'm gunna rip yer head off and ***** down your neck!" and after you defeat the boss he does just that!! He uses his neck for a toilet and pulls out a newspaper and starts reading. Even whistles a tune.
- Hickeroar, on 12/19/2007, -12/+3Could be the latest Duke line *ever*.

- Madpony, on 12/19/2007, -1/+111That would imply that there actually is a game.
- INTERNETMASTER, on 12/19/2007, -3/+18all that was in-engine. there was no shooting gameplay, but that was the game.

- wetdirtmud, on 12/19/2007, -2/+31They haven't exactly started working on the gameplay yet, they've spent the last 10 years working on this trailer. According to the website they will start working on actual gameplay next month.
- arbulus, on 12/19/2007, -2/+9That's what I don't understand: why has it taken 10 years to get just this far on one game? What the hell have they been doing? Is it something they're only allowed to work on during their coffee breaks? i mean seriously, that's why I just can't believe any of this. No game company spends 10+ years working on ONE GAME.
- c0nker, on 12/19/2007, -0/+7not only have they switched through two engines since they began, but they've heavily rewritten the one they currently have, and worked up from there. they started with something, found something better, emptied it, and basically started from scratch, all in one go...that's gotta take a long time x.x
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -1/+3They should trash this copy,
and start again with the Unreal Engine 3.0 -
once they've taken 3 or 4 years to tweak the UE 3.0 to work for the game. - arbulus, on 12/19/2007, -2/+2I'll grant that such a thing would take time, but not 10 years.

- imbob, on 12/19/2007, -2/+43does this mean the world is also coming to the END?
- rockrapdude, on 12/19/2007, -20/+13Looks like the Doom 3 engine is used. So that means that the game is playable out of the box, unlike some games(*cough*Crysis*cough*)
- TotalHalibut, on 12/19/2007, -1/+3It really doesn't.
- INTERNETMASTER, on 12/19/2007, -0/+8it's using the unreal engine. this was the cause for the notorious delays. originally it was quake2 engine, then they moved to UE.
- Hickeroar, on 12/19/2007, -1/+10They licensed Unreal 2.5 tech years ago and *heavily* modified it for their game. It's probably pretty close to a proprietary engine now...
- nathanrobinson, on 12/19/2007, -0/+7um. FTA it tells us that they WROTE THEIR OWN ENGINE.
- GreyICE, on 12/19/2007, -0/+12Oh come on. By the time DNF comes out, you'll be able to run Crysis on max setting with a BUDGET computer. Or possibly the computer in your wristwatch...
- andycr512, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2The way they used per-pixel lighting and stencil buffer shadows resembled the way Doom 3 did, but they aren't the same engine.
- rectifier, on 12/19/2007, -18/+10I hope it's not going to be like Doom3. I have that fear.
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -0/+5Doom 3 - excellent game, if you enjoy rendering blacked out rooms and shadows with maybe a hint of movement in them...

- stilesja, on 12/19/2007, -0/+14Not really, this is just like hell's weatherman saying "Now listen you guys, there is such a thing as snow, see I found a video of it, and sometime in the future it will happen here.... when its ready."

- Hercules, on 12/19/2007, -11/+154Regardless of all the delays, if this game launches it's a sure #1 top seller. I don't care how much crap people give them for it, Duke Nukem 3D was AWESOME, and if DNF ever comes out.... they will be rolling in money because all of us who complain will still buy the game.

- Double0Doug, on 12/19/2007, -2/+7Hate to say it but I agree. It doesn’t matter how great the game is, it will never live up to its own expectations.
- darkstar949, on 12/19/2007, -0/+15Well, currently most people expect it will never be released, so if they release it then it will exceed most expectations.
- LeeSoong, on 12/19/2007, -3/+1I hope they have 64-way on-line play, unified for all versions xbox360, ps3, pc.
But the new release says 'Mac OS Only'?
- Double0Doug, on 12/19/2007, -2/+7Hate to say it but I agree. It doesn’t matter how great the game is, it will never live up to its own expectations.
- kingUssop, on 12/19/2007, -0/+5It's hard to say. A lot of love right now is only hardcore fanboys and like with something like Firefly, or Snakes on a Plane.... they don't amount to a great success.
- TomTruelle, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2If forever turns out to be anything like zero hour im going to go ***** BONKERS
- RockinRoel, on 12/19/2007, -3/+1I've got a bad feeling about DNF, it's got Doom 3-like failure written all over it, minus the release of an awesome new gaming engine. It's highly anticipated, but in the end, they didn't manage to live up to the expectations, and they'll get severely punished for that.
Okay, it could also turn out to be awesome. Let's hope for the latter and quit being cynical, *slaps himself on the head*.
And by the way, I actually never played Doom 3 but I'm tempted to. I love the first two Dooms. - stafax, on 12/19/2007, -0/+4Number 1 seller? you're assuming everyone else is a fanboy like yourself. First off, it's been TEN YEARS since the last duke nukem game. I asked a couple of 14 year olds the other day if they knew Duke Nukem, and they had NO CLUE. Kids don't know Duke Nukem, their hero is Master Chief. Secondly, for us older gamers, this Duke Nukem has some BIG SHOES to fill. So far the graphics don't look to impressive (for a game that's been in production for so long) and the gameplay better be out of our minds amazing. Because Duke Nukem 3d was a solid shooter, just having solid gameplay isn't enough to survive anymore. Now it needs to be different from everything else and meets beyond all of our expectations since there is just too much competition in the First Person Genre..
- Buelldozer, on 12/19/2007, -1/+12Duke Nukem would kick Master Chief's ASS!

- floatingpoints, on 12/19/2007, -26/+1Uh, considering it's new music, I don't see how it can bring back memories unless it was from 20 seconds ago.
- Papajohn56, on 12/19/2007, -0/+21kill yourself, it uses the same theme
- nathanrobinson, on 12/19/2007, -0/+11go play dn3d. then you have the privilege to tell us if you THINK it's "new" music.
- antdude, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3Look for Lee Jackson's Duke Nukem theme music (MP3). IMO, the best one.
- milkmit, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3Hell yeah!
I loved tossing a bunch of pipebombs out and then setting up a trip laser (with the patch that made the red laser invisible, of course).... Could hear the beep and the half-dozen explosions from across the map! :)

"Illusion, Michael. A trick is something whores do for money."- chronicRick, on 12/19/2007, -3/+9Jon St. John sounds pretty good considering the last time he did Duke was over a decade ago.
- gjunkie, on 12/19/2007, -2/+4I have to agree. It felt like the trailer for a game due out Summer of 1998... which makes sense since it has been in development for so long...
- anillop, on 12/19/2007, -1/+10you forgot three... nobody gives a ***** what you think.
- Banichi, on 12/19/2007, -3/+52Does this mean they've finally reached the half-way point in development? It should be out around 2018?
- gyrfalcon, on 12/19/2007, -0/+5No it means they're ***** again and the game will never come out... They'll have to re-do their last 10 years of programing because whatever game engine they're supposedly developing is will already be obsolete by the time it hits the store shelves.
Even if it does hit the store shelves, it will suck and not be innovative. - 911cartoon, on 12/20/2007, -0/+2banichi: LOL!

- rsc0, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1Maybe that is a good idea because if the place you pre-ordered it again from diddnt go out of business you would not lose your deposit and you would get a copy of the game when it comes out and then you could play it on your PC!

Wikipedia: "Duke Nukem Forever (DNF) is a first-person shooter video game being developed by 3D Realms, and is the next game in the Duke Nukem series. It is infamous for its protracted development schedule, which began in April 1997."... Pushing 11 years now. Makes you wonder how they managed to stay in business this long.- Protoss, on 12/19/2007, -0/+9They made other games since then, thats how they stay in business.
- Ndiggnation, on 12/19/2007, -0/+4They've released other games in that time, that explains at least some of it. While this projected has been able to linger on so long, is anybody's guess though.
- jeremymccurdy, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3Er, they stayed in business because they made other games, good games.
- Christbait, on 12/19/2007, -0/+6When he says 6 years, I think he's referring to the graphics engine change, not the start of development.
- dagooh, on 12/19/2007, -0/+4They started working on this version since 2004, so just 4 years.
- hasahugedig, on 12/20/2007, -0/+0you remember that little game called Max Payne? ya, they made that.

- emuprophet, on 12/19/2007, -3/+2It did look on par with Doom 3 which was released in 2004, but this ***** reminds me of a lame rendition of Duke. Where is the callback? I think Duke3d High Resolution Pack is doing a good job at reviving the classic: http://hrp.duke4.net/

- INTERNETMASTER, on 12/19/2007, -3/+22if he looked the same he would be a low resolution 2d sprite. I prefer the 3d look for a new duke game. but I'm just weird like that I guess.

- fotbr, on 12/19/2007, -0/+2if the walking stick is as fun as the original half life's crowbar, then bring it on!
- davewho, on 12/19/2007, -0/+3Can you tell by the pixels?
- Sneezyx, on 12/19/2007, -1/+2Looks like grown-up Bart Simpson on steroids.
- donttaseme, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1nice pants.
- aoki4, on 12/19/2007, -22/+16Ten to one the game sucks.
- PawtucketPat, on 12/19/2007, -3/+16Ten to one your opinion sucks.
- MasterRex, on 12/19/2007, -0/+5ALWAYS BET ON DUKE.
- danielson0014, on 12/19/2007, -3/+0well seeing how it's been in production for 6 years, the only tailer doesn't even show any game play, and the graphics in Mass Effect look better already I think 10 to 1 is being optimistic. How are there still pathetic fan boys left for this joke of a game? Just because it says Duke Nukem doesn't mean it is automatically be as good as the first!
- InfeImmo, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1You need a hug, or a blunt, or something..
Is this really something to be annoyed at? Some people are having a few jokes and moments of nostalgia about a game they probably enjoyed playing back in the day, and some are being cautiously optimistic about a new (albeit billionth time) sequel. Do you really consider that pathetic?
Then again maybe I'm just being overly PC, after all this here's the intraweb and all. Anyways, whatever, take it or leave it.. - blakefast, on 12/31/2007, -0/+0Honestly, he says what I feel as well.
10+ years to come out. Hell, even when they restarted production is still 6+ years. And we still don't have actual gameplay footage, but a TEASER trailer???? You've got to be kidding me, this is just more disappointing, not encouraging. I can't name any games that took more than 5 years to develop. Duke Nukem Forever = Fail. I enjoyed Duke Nukem 3D, but now it just feels.... over with.

- slickdoody, on 12/19/2007, -10/+6AWESOME!!!!
- Marcsib, on 12/19/2007, -24/+7Very disappointing. No gameplay footage like was promised, it was just CGI rubbish that may as well have been fan-made.
- IIIKrazyKiDDIII, on 12/19/2007, -2/+5I think that was the actual game... anyways. even if the graphics looks like that... it will be worth playing since duke was always about the gameplay!
- razmig, on 12/19/2007, -3/+10except George said they were only releasing a teaser and we should expect a full trailer soon. So shut the ***** up.
- gyrfalcon, on 12/19/2007, -5/+2Why don't you shut the ***** up till the lying sacks of ***** release their "full trailer"...
- NeMoD, on 12/19/2007, -1/+4they flashed gameplay footage of some enemies..
- ehal256, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1it was confirmed in-game. ;)
- gyrfalcon, on 12/19/2007, -0/+1and WHY would you believe them?
- foxingworth, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1Why wouldn't you believe them? If that isn't the in-game engine, it'd be pretty easy to tell when the game comes out...
And besides, they may have missed their release dates (by a lot), but they never lied about anything.
- ehal256, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1it was confirmed in-game. ;)
- onionoino, on 12/19/2007, -0/+1That was all in engine
- 911cartoon, on 12/20/2007, -1/+1yall are right.. no gameplay footage? dude they must not know the game market these days.. people dont givva ***** anymore yall
- Harrison88, on 12/19/2007, -1/+1Wow ... they've done so much work over all these years. Wonder how long till we get the next tailer [/sarcasim]
