3D Realms has gone another year without releasing Duke Nukem Forever, but is still teasing us with new images.

God. Here we go again.

Carpet3 · 19th Dec 2008, 11:27

I suspect this game is screwed. It's so over-hyped and anticipated that no matter how good it is, it will ultimately lead to mass disappointment.

Deadwolf · 19th Dec 2008, 11:37

this game will never come out.. it's duke's joke on us..

Jordan Wise · 19th Dec 2008, 11:37

I love it. This game is so overdue that it gets a news article when an IMAGE is released!

perplekks45 · 19th Dec 2008, 11:47

I might be quite lonely by now but I'm still looking forward to it. Don't think I'll ever see it being released but still waiting. Maybe that one German PC magazine was right when they estimated the release date to be winter 2666.

God I wish they could just start again pick an engine from a clean slate and go with that jesus if they just picked the steam engine when HL2 came out im sure they could of had it done by now lol

I dont like the trailer either theres vehicles, vehicles in any game except battelfield 1942 are crap.

StephenK · 19th Dec 2008, 12:02

Maybe this is the game? We're playing it right now. Each pic is the next level and we will be playing Forever!

V3ctor · 19th Dec 2008, 12:12

At least, they make news with it... I can imagine my grandson waiting for Duke Nukem Forever... I'm affraid I'm not going to live to see the day this game comes out :\

UrbanMarine · 19th Dec 2008, 12:14

I still play Duke3D and I still can't wait until DNF comes out.

V3ctor · 19th Dec 2008, 12:26

Will it ever be a Duke Nukem After-ever?

Joeymac · 19th Dec 2008, 12:33

Basically this game will have to look better than Beowulf, run maxed out on a 486, have no DRM on it, cost £5 and be the greatest game of all time.... Or people will be pissed and it'll die on it's arse.

Bauul · 19th Dec 2008, 13:26

I still have faith, even if its only okay, I can't imagine it won't be fun and hell anything with Duke in is a laugh. Everyone knows it's taken years to develop, I think people's expectations will be rock bottom and it can only be better than people imagine it will be. All the trailers for it have looked good at any rate, so unless they do something stupid it won't be a Daikatana. Maybe a Prey, which was, what, 8 years in development? I imagine it will be "fine", but at least it will certainly be memorable.

GFC · 19th Dec 2008, 13:53

It's never gona be released.. and if it is - god help them, they wont be able to live to the hype no mather how good the game is.
Well, i have better chance of playing crysis on AA and AF enabled then ever seeing DNF.. :\

Anti-Hero · 19th Dec 2008, 14:03

I'm seriously rofl'ing on your posts guys =D
Now I missed the original Duke Nukem games, I was too young back than.
But let me use Team Fortress 2 as an example that this game can be good.
Team Fortress 2 was also like 7 years (if I'm not mistaking) in the making, and it is one of the best games ever imo.
It's just wait and see for me!

Delphium · 19th Dec 2008, 14:16

Having checked out the the link to the different format and size images, have to say, the image at the bottom of the page is certainly much more pleasing to the eye x]

rewind · 19th Dec 2008, 15:00

One word 'Diakatana'....

Denis_iii · 19th Dec 2008, 15:35

just give me a gun and bring on those monsters and i'm happy, no vehicles, no fancy gameplay options, just fps quake 1 gameplay with wierd weapons and a jet pack

Goty · 19th Dec 2008, 15:59

When and IF they ever release this game, it's pretty much going to be guaranteed to be one of the best selling titles of the year if only because people will want to see what all the waiting was for.

Sathy · 19th Dec 2008, 16:28

At least it's not Forever for NOTHING, so you have to give credit for the developer for picking the right name from the start.
By the looks of the "trailer" there, it should be called Never-ever, as the graphics are rather horrendous, even though there are some nifty gameplay related things shown.

It's not as if it should come as a surprise that unless they've changed the engine several times, it will look outdated before it's even been dated, for release. Oh well, whether or not it's something worth it or not...passing judgement is going to wait until it's actually released. Until then it's still vapor.

@ Anti-Hero, really, TF2 is in your view one of the best games ever? All there is to say is that we're all happy you're happy. Games that have been delayed for release this long are on average flops, so even if TF2 made it well isn't anything to draw much conclusions from.
