Whoa, this came out of nowhere. Duke Nukem developer 3D Realms has abruptly closed its doors. |

Me, I'm shocked they were able to stay in business for this long. Well at least now there is a definate record for vaporware. Let's see if Alan Wake can beat it...

Wait...what? But Duke Nukem wants to be Chuck Norris, he can't die! He can only be horribly mutilated! T_T

What did they publish in the last 10 years? I have no idea. XD
I'd love if DNF were released. But I doubt it...
And I do hope Alan Wake doesn't turn out to be the next DNF. :/

The key word here is "publishing," not "development," so it's only relevant if the game's done. Duke Nukem Forever done. Yeeeeeeaaaaaah, like that'll happen. Also, as far as I last read, the former heads of 3D Realms still own the development rights to DNF, but I can't seem to find the source of that and it annoys the hell out of me. |

Various screenshot and concep art pieces were released in the past few days, it looks like DNF might still see the light of day if someone picks it up.
ps: Alone, you win +10 points in my book for your Osaka avatar.

Ars Technica has a good write-up about some of the speculation. ps: Alone, you win +10 points in my book for your Osaka avatar. Thanks. It's Osaka as Spider Jerusalem, just in case you couldn't tell.

Alone: I have no idea who Spider Jerusalem is.  Now, news: I've seen somewhere that 3D Realms didn't really shut down, only fired some employees. They had some restructuring going on. I think it was on Kotaku. So yeah, Duke Forever is still "alive" (at least as much as it was before  )
