That explains the flying pig I saw outside my window.

Regardless, will be fun to play, but expectations are low.

Though it never achieved the state of synonymy that DNF did, TF2 was considered vaporware for nearly a decade as well, and now here we are in a (mostly) TF2 community. I'm not prepared to write it off just yet...but I'm not seeing GotY here either (unless it's awarded simply for finally existing, which may happen).

That said, I still wish they'd have renamed it to...well, anything really. It's gonna be weird not having it as a go-to game to refer to vaporware :P

I dunno I think that having Forever in the title is somewhat fitting. I am looking forward to playing it, I have fond memories of playing Duke Nukem 3D on my parents Acer 486/DX66. Good times :lol:

Isn't this just really like the third or fourth game they tried to develop as DNF? At least they slowed down on promising release dates for a few years there.

I never played DN3d. I did beat the original sidescroller trilogy and play the 2nd side-scroller line.

I'd like to play this if it is available on steam.

This is classic low-brow duke nukem. If you want high-brow entertainment, I'm sure your local ballet or opera production or symphony could use the ticket sales.

The fact that it is Duke Nukem Forever is what will make it sell - everyone will buy it just to say that they own/played Duke Nukem Forever.

And exactly what Clay said - if you're looking for an intelligent storyline and carefully thought out jokes and/or are easily offended, this is not the game for you.
