Duke Nukem Forever Dated

February 1, 2006 - 9:00pm

According to 3DRealms co-founder, George Broussard, Duke Nukem Forever is preparing for launch "...when pigs fly". The 3DRealms executive gave an in depth interview on a game that has a more robust release date, Prey, but did not fail to mention everyone's favorite April's Fool game DNF, giving us some interesting information regarding its progress.

In an interview at 1Up, George Broussard was asked whether his team is still working on Duke Nukem Forever and his reply was ...An ever and ever.
When asked when we can expect the game however he became slightly more serious and after officially announcing the "pigs" schedule, he went on to add:

it's definitely going well now. Things are together; we're in full production. We're basically just pulling all the pieces together and making the game out of it. There's a lot that's finished. All the guns are finished. Most of the creatures are finished. And as I said, we're just basically pulling it all together and trying to make it fun. We've kind of got all these disassociated elements that make up a game, and you put them together and things happen. And then you just tweak it and polish it until it's fun, and that's kind of the phase we're in now, just trying to make something that is really fun to play and interesting.

So there you have it from the horse's mouth, 3DRealms is still working on DNF and they seem to believe that the game is almost into the testing phase. Considering the length of time its developers have been working on DNF, the game may even introduce a new gaming genre; the retro-modern.

No Doom3 did not take 10 years to make it wasnt in development from the point Doom2 was released which you are implying. ID made many games in between. And y do ppl use warez and torrent sites? Cos they dont want to pay for something so the steal it instead. BTW ever heard of demo's?

Allways bet on Duke :D!I have no doubt this will be one of the best FPS games around "when it's done"! G.Broussard himself once said that the game contains about 9 gigs of data for the moment, so don't underestimate duke's ass-kicking abilities !btw... i remember reading that doom3 took about 5 years to make..

Well, the game didn't take that long, the Engine did. They pulled together the game in about two years. HL-2 if fun to play the first time through, but it has no replay value. Save your $40, spend $3 on Deus Ex and you'll get a much larger, longer, and more enjoyable gameplay experience.

Just want to reply to Mincetro:HL2 is indeed fun the first time, for the story line. After that you're supposed to play HL2 DM and all the various mods out there. That's why steam has put alot of energy in listing mods and making them easy to dl.Other than that, I'm ever so exited about DNF... I've been eagerly waiting for the man who raised me to return :P
