I'm sure its been said already - but ANY game studio thats done an FPS before could and should be able to make a game to just about any theme in a eighteen months or less.
When whateverthehelltheywerecalled studios got kicked off their own project by the publishers it was completely the publishers legal right to hand whatever half-built rubbish they had over to another studio and ask them to salvage something out of it.
I guess this is the result. This is almost certainly NOT the duke that had fake screenshots and fake trailers CGI'd into existance for over the years by the previous developers.
Not that I could care less, I never got into duke nukem in the first place.
As the Doom2 to Doom3 change shows, amazingly good games can come from old franchises if the concept is strong enough but this given the history of this game - and the fact its been developed now by god-knows-who its ONLY going to be a cash-in piece of crap. It HAS to be a cash-in piece of crap because thats what they desperately want.

Hate to piss on the parade but you can only hold two weapons. Also, regenerating health is sorta in... health has been replaced with 'EGO', which is restored by killing enemies. As if Duke would ever run out of ego.Varanfan9 said:
I just hope that they retain the cool level design and humour of 3D, and maybe make the enemies a little more interesting.
Mother 3 took eleven years to develop.Gorfias said:
If we go by that, DNF is going to be godly.
I don't care if it's nothing more than a glorified beta. I'll buy it for the sheer novelty of being able to say, "I'm Landon Ellerbe and I own a copy of the most infamous piece of vapor ware to never exist."
Duuuukeeee Nukeeemmmm , oh my god its been a while hasn't it haha. can't wait to be honest with you all.
Its Time To Kick Ass And Chew Bubblegum... Again

Just to let you know.
3D Realms collapsed last year and production was taken over by Gearbox, who guaranteed they would release the game. Furthermore, anyone who followed PAX 2010 will have known about this:

I'll keep my eye on it purely out of curiosity,I've been through primary scool,highschool,and two years of college in the time it's taken for this game to cm eout.
Everything I know.....IS WRONG!!!
I.....what.....they actually......
I cannot bring myself to try and make sense of this.
