| Duke Nukem Foreever should come out this or next year. After 10 years of production. The game has been jokingly referred to in gaming circles as Duke Nukem Whatever, Duke Nukem If Ever, Duke Nukem Coming Out Never, Duke Nukem Taking Forever, Duke Nukem Never, Duke Nukem Fornever, Duke Nukem Forever Wait, Duke Nukem Forever in Development |

| Carl Cates |
| I was 6. :p And I've played Duke Nukem 3. I don't remember DNF being announced as I just found out. :P |
| Sid Conner |

| Sid Conner |
| Oh haha No, they never did say it It could...never come out |
| Carl Cates |
| Well there is a high possibility that it will come out 2007 |
| Sid Conner |
| Or come out 3 years later |
| Carl Cates |
| Nah, it'll definitely come out. Too much work to just let go. It's definitely going well now. Things are together; we're in full production. We're basically just pulling all the pieces together and making the game out of it. There's a lot that's finished. All the guns are finished. Most of the creatures are finished. And as I said, we're just basically pulling it all together and trying to make it fun. We've kind of got all these disassociated elements that make up a game, and you put them together See. Almost done. |

| LOL Did u know they say they just finish modeling 20 weapons and all the creatures? After what.. 7 YEARS?! 7 YEARS TO FINISH 20 weapons and creatures... And they only started to finish the rest....I bet it will take another 3 years LOL Or project never come out, they just got their funding/last payment cut this year |
| Shawn |
| They have switched egines a few times though :) |
| Carl Cates |
| A game does not only consist of 20 guns and creatures. :p There has to be a story to follow and other stuff too. :p Yeah, Shawn is right. Newer engines have been coming out and they need to update. :p |
| Shawn |
| Last tiem they ran the latest UT engine and had switched the physics engine wich was apparently an easy task.. They'll prbably be switching to one of the newer engines now, or start over workign with UT2k7 engine :) |
| Sid Conner |
| Hah No of course not, game doesn't consist of 20 guns and creatures But it TAKES THEM THAT LONG to finish measly 20 guns and creatures LOL 7 years In fact How long do u think it will take them to finish the rest of the game? Btw, the also just finished 3 GAME LEVELS.... LOL |

| Duke Forever was announced in 1998 |
| Shawn |
| They have allways claimed to have had a playable game, just not finished |
| Sid Conner |
| Always, yes They could have made 3 games out of it |
| Shawn |
| They also arent' actively developing it as such It's a side project, developed from their own pockets while they work on other hired projects |
| Rod Sigler |
| Duke Forever have switched engine a number of times D: |
| Sid Conner |
| 1st demo of Duke nukem was 1998/99 I saw the video of it Looks pretty good at the time It's comparable to half life 1 They could have finish it And sell it |
| Rod Sigler |
| Then they bought the license for the indomitable MEQON physics engine.. But then Ageia bought Swedish MEQON And 3dRealms had to do some things over again At least I know they'll be using a kick ass physics engine :p |
| Sid Conner |
| Shawn, about development form their own pockets - It's not true They were funded Take2 gave them 40 MILLIONS To develop it The last payment was this year The publisher cut off the funding |
| Shawn |
| According to them they used to be unfunded though And noone cares about DNF anymore. All the peopel who would have bought DNF on launch day are old now and forgot about it, it's taken too long |
| Sid Conner |
| After all I am always a duke fan |
| Shawn |
| It'll never be as good as the hype would want it to |
