In a series of emails with the Dallas Business Journal, 3D Realms has confirmed DNF for a 2008 release and an XBL port of Duke 3D.

Dukes old now, dont know yet if ill revisit it on live, maybe a demo will persuade me.

johnnyboy700 · 7th Feb 2008, 11:32

Is that a squadron of flying pigs I see approaching?

D3s3rt_F0x · 7th Feb 2008, 12:01

I still have the odd blast on Duke Nukem 3d and i can say its lost none of its appeal lol

BioSniper · 7th Feb 2008, 13:00

I'll be Duke3d so long as the port is good and the price is right though inevitably it will be 800 points, I'll complain about how over-priced it is, and then buy it anyway.

Hmmm...it'll be a bit like the last Rocky film, with a 60-year old Duke coming out of retirement to show those young whipper-snappers how it's done...

If it's fun, I don't care about it looking a little dated. Hopefully this is true, although I'm not gonna hold my breath.

duke nukem is so old i dont care anymore...not that i ever did. I played the old ones on the pc and they were fun and all but its too little too late....giveup.

pendragon · 7th Feb 2008, 18:11

I think it boils down to good gameplay or not at the moment, but nostalgia might have some effect on sales certainly

perplekks45 · 7th Feb 2008, 18:48

Nobody who really enjoyed playing DN3D would ever even think about not buying DNF. I'll get it.

Anyways, I wouldn't care about it too much right now as I'm almost out of the door to get drunk with at least 4 English girls. So I just can't be bothered really thinking about it.

DXR_13KE · 7th Feb 2008, 20:36

i hope they get this one right....

1 on 1 style best fun ever had. map building etc.. just hope its not a let down.

This game might rival Prey's longer-than-a-decade "production" time.

HourBeforeDawn · 8th Feb 2008, 07:06

you know what I no longer care when it comes out I will just live my life day by day and then when I see it on shelves then I will believe that its finally out lo.

genesisofthesith · 9th Feb 2008, 21:08

I'd like to know what kind of idiot has allowed the production to be continously delayed, work scrapped, engines swapped etc. Wonder what the development costs will work out as...

HourBeforeDawn · 9th Feb 2008, 21:14

ya lo this might be the most expensive game released so far just in delay and changes alone.

Definitely

I remember watching it, it was embedded in an article which said they showed a really old trailer from it's first announcement and then said they'd update it with the new one when it was available. I remember watching the video and thinking the graphics looked really good for such an old video.

Then I scrolled down and realised the old trailer was below it.
