Duke Nukem Forever delayed AGAIN !!! (No joke)

[Adzma]

And the vaporware continues. Duke Nukem is the greatest troll in history, but I still love him to bits and will continue to.

*SNIP*

i'd like to elaborate here it better be the cure for 6 types of cancer hiv and aids, end world hunger, stop every war get me a girlfriend and bring my dear pet back to life

^This -- IT BETTER BE! It better be SO GOOD that CANCER CELLS and HIV/AIDS/whatever virus rocked their socks off and stuff and thus humanity prevailed once again.

Jokingly aside :

Thank god I did not pre-order it the other day.
Hilariously even the clerk was like "...This game is made in 1999" until I pointed out I was asking for a pre-order, she gets EVEN MORE confused.

*Sigh* fail clerk.

Oh and also,

"Duke Nukem Never Comes Early"

It took me about five minutes to get that line. Well done boys.

No chance of this being an early April Fools joke is there?

It's still March.

Doubt it, even Randy mentioned its not even the first of April.

Edit : Saw the reply, well... could be, knowing that Randy is not your average tight lipped game company CEO and loves poking fun with gamers.

Yes but recently I've noticed a trend of doing April Fools jokes slightly earlier to make them less obvious. I did say "early" April Fools joke. Though even though it's only a week til April, this might be a little too early.

 

[valkeminator]

Also, the new release date : Why is the international getting an earlier release date? :S I just find this a bit strange and unusual...

 

[Yarpie]

Well I guess it would not be DNF if they didn't delay one last time, after all it is a practice that has been going on for 10+ years, so why stop now?

I'd still say that it is possible that this is an early April Fools joke, if nothing else to dodge the "obvious-factor" that comes with "announcements" made on April 1st.

 

[Leg End]

I got a better idea.

Delay it until July 4th.

Come on, I can't be the only one thinking that would be fucking awesome, right?

 

[Roxor]

Ha ha ha ha hah!

Oh, the irony. The new developer says they can get the game done, and then they hit more delays.

If I were a superstitious man, I'd think the game was cursed.

 

[ZombieGenesis]

I doubt it's an April Fools joke, when did they actual start developing?
Doesn't feel like that long ago his studio took up the project, and any good game needs it's heavy time investment. They probably knew people would find it funny to delay the game again if they needed to.

And yes, July 4th release would be golden.

i don't really mind waiting longer since duke is keeping that last flicker of hope alive keeping me from ending up a cynical shell of a man.......and since i'm not funny enough i can't get paid for it

 

[EzraPound]

That's pretty hilarious, I'm not of the opinion people were waiting on tenterhooks for it though.

I'm pissed. I have an operation just prior to its release date and I was intending to play it during my recovery. I even pre-ordered the game from Future Shop (probably a bad idea, given that it's DNF).

Funny vid, though.

[ChicagoTed]

One is not amused.

 

[meglathon]

ah... and i all ready started emptying my bubble gum pack...

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

Meh, not surprised, but at least I got a laugh out of it.
