Duke Nukem Forever confirmed, Nerdgasms had.

Good Lord, if all those sarcastic nerds are to be believed, the world should be ending soon. But seriously, this is great news.

He is Albert Wesker. It's going to be a Duke Nukem/Resident Evil Crossover. Due to Umbrellas secret meddling in trans-dimensional technology, most of the characters were flung into Duke Nukem's world. The radiation from the 'flinging' caused Albert to merge with Duke and Jill Valentine to merge with every stripper.

Yeah Dynamithix, if I've learned anything in life it's that you could always bet on Duke.

Interesting. I've never played any of the Duke Nukem games, but I might try to before this ships.

So, I'll probably have time to beat them all 100%, more than once.

I kid. Is this even by the original developers?

This game was cancelled in 2009 after being announced in like, the early-mid 90's. Personally, I think it's the greatest trolling attempt in gaming history.

It's called Duke Nukem Forever because it TAKES FUCKING FOREVER TO MAKE!

It's not coming out. You're being trolled by the very people who're making it.

I'll laugh if it's mediocre.

Not even bad, just so mediocre nobody will ever give a shit again.

The Gamespot editors apparently have some gameplay impressions on their site, apparently the game starts with Duke standing in front of a urinal and you have to push the R button to pee.

Because hating things that have perceptively undeserved popularity is one of the few things that humans are really good at.

If you think Duke Nukem is popular than you must play some really underground shit. I've always felt that it had more of a cult following idk, besides the last one came out liek ten years ago this is a good opportunity for us to tell little kids that all the games they grew up on are horrible and that we know better.

Watch it have a cover system and regenerating health. Fuck, it'll be labelled as a Matt Hazard clone, of all things.

Duke Nukem 3D was better when it was called Doom.

Seriously, having played through it, 3D wasn't very good. Not good enough to warrant the decade plus hype that Forever has garnered.

I just broke into laughter at this thought: Over-hyped games usually don't live up to it, if Forever DOES come out, I have a feeling every major reviewer is gonna write, "Not worth the hype."

Even if Duke Nukem Forever would be mediocre or worse, many people will still buy it because it will finally be released after so many years. I will be one of those people, just because Duke Nukem is just so... DUKE. He's freaking nostalgia himself.

Gearbox made borderlands, which was an awesome game, so I don't see why DNF would be mediocre.

Notice the "even if" Xavier.

Borderlands is a very awesome game and I heard they're going to increase the level cap to 69. Whippee!
