  • I commend Gearbox for releasing this game. Some people may not like it, but I did.

  • Gotta admit. This guy called it.

  • i loved Rise of the Triads. Loved it. now that Duke nukem is screwed, maybe they should screw this game too.

  • @siddbastard It's not a bad game, although it suffered from Doom clone syndrome. But I'm willing to bet it's a hell of a lot better than DNF.

  • @EnigmaHood you mean the Rise of the Triads from 1994 being better than this DNF from 2011 ?

    well ... yeah, probably ... as ridiculous as it sounds.

  • @EnigmaHood ROTT was in the works months before Doom was released. ROTT was designed as a sequel/expansion to Wolfenstein 3D (thus all the 90 degree walls). Doom then came out and Id Software (Doom's creators) cancelled the Wolfenstein expansion, so not to divert attention from Doom. Apogee continued the project but gave it a new plot and design, hence why it was released so much later.

  • @Nogli ROTT was designed as a sequel to Wolfenstein but it was being made by Apogee, and they didn't have the rights to make a sequel to Wolfenstein (why they thought they did, I have no idea). So they dropped all the ties to Wolfenstein and made it a stand alone game. That doesn't change the fact that did suffer from Doom clone syndrome. And sure enough, it was in fact better than the shit storm that is DNF.

  • @EnigmaHood Apogee published Commander Keen and Wolfenstein, made by id Software. As Apogee functioned also as a developer, I'm guessing John Carmack commissioned Apogee to make it, thus why he was able to cancel the project, and Apogee could use the remnants to make that standalone game.

    It's such a shame what became of DNF. And for the record, whether it's down to quality or nostalgia, I love ROTT.

  • @Nogli I know man, I've been an Apogee fan since Duke Nukem 1, I know all about their history. But I have never heard anything about Carmack giving them the ok to make a sequel to Wolfenstein. My guess is, they thought they had the right to make it, but they were wised up later on. ROTT was ok. It's not bad, and has nostalgia value, but games like Doom were, well... Better. But like I said, it beats the pants off of DNF any day.

  • What a huge fag

  • @friendlybacon Lol says the guy who goes by the name "friendlybacon" lol.

  • No,Duke killed George Broussard.He was tired off waiting for DNF ;)

  • the game finally came out in Europe,I bought it,played it and finished it already.

    They killed Duke man. :(

    The game sucks. It doesn't stand up to the legacy of the series.

  • y do u where a hood

  • @Enigma. Not a kid, genius. Am probably older than you and have been playing Duke Nukem since shortly after it's release on July 1, 1991. Were you even out of diapers then? You probably still live with your parents. Anyhow, I'm done with you.

  • @JoosDogg Bullshit. You're a n00b who not only lives with your parents, but you probably have butt sex with them too. Why don't you go run back to your mother's breast for some milk you little fudge packer :D :D

  • The goofy hood says otherwise, sir

  • @JoosDogg Trust me kid, you don't know 3DR like I do. I've been following them for over a decade. I know you're some stupid duke fanboy who came out of the wood work recently, but I've been a fan since Duke 1 came out.

  • Well it may be 2 years later, but Duke Nukem is confirmed out shortly. Wow, you certainly look like a douche....

  • @JoosDogg No I don't :)

  • without George Broussard there wouldent be a duke nukem forever.

    And how cool are you making stupid videos and are afraid of showing your eyes

  • Duke nukem forever will be coming out

  • @ArrcanarStudios I know.

  • Ezekiel from Assasins Creed?

  • 3d realms dot com announced on sseptember 3rd 2010 that duke nukem will be making his debut in 2011 :D

  • Oh this is made in 2009, somehow 3D realms has made money. A demo is out and people are buying the old games, they have more money than before, they introduced it to X box more. I dont think that 3D realms is a big part of The New Duke Nukem FOREVER!

  • I just watched new gameplay footage of Duke Nukem Forever... New and it had been played at pax. To me it looks like Serious Sam, which techinically stool Duke Nukem ideas...

  • The thing about this mess (and sort of what Molyneux did with Too Human even though TH was completed)

    Is that, there are devs that would KILL for ten years on one game.

    KILL for the budget they received.

    This fat, lazy, inept bastard blew smoke up the fans' collective ass for a decade.

    There are mediocre games out there that only needed a few more months and a few more million to have been great.

    This guy took enough money and time to make three or four AAA titles and squandered all of it.

  • duke nukem is passed due. It's raw...I now have the shits for years because of that. George is an incompetent , fat, arrogant prick for taking the game to the grave. And even if he DOES finish off DNF... if there are any games that come afterwards is going to be like a drop of water in the ocean, forgotten. He's a liar, and business wise whatever hes going through he deserves for being stupid!

  • @germomr2 Lol well said.

  • @germomr2 idk if im going to like the game or hate it when it finally comes out, i just know right now at this moment im more anxious than a baby waiting for breast milk,

  • i can fully understand George Broussard. Giving away ALL the rights of YOUR OWN Creation is the sickes thing a puplisher could ever ask you for. Because you will never see any fame or money again since every cash in will go to the fucking publisher. Okay? Face it. Publishers are like the music companys. Living from the work of other people and receing your money. If i would create something, i would keep ALL the rights for myself aswell. That's not greed, that's keeping dignity!

  • @KRAFTWERK2K6

    30 million bucks is a shitload

  • i dont hate u... george is keeping me from this game!!!! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR FUCKING EVER!!!!

  • @TuzoidCT dude, i foundout a month ago i'm gonna die from heart failure in less than 3 years and i've been waiting for this game since the 2001 trailer... I'm 18 years old, played duke series since I can remember...fucked up world we live in...but I still say. Hail to the king, baby.

  • @Hrko1992 Its comming out in 2011.....they alredy have a demo and its going to come out this year....

    Its going to be developed by Gearbox:D

  • Thanks for putting this out. Its been a LONNNNNNNNNNG wait for a new release and at this point, very few companies would trust this guy. Gaming has evolved into HD production with amazing graphics and Duke has slipped from the limelight it once had and that sucks. IP rights should have been sold years ago when they were WORTH buying. As a gamer who first played Duke as my first video game and loved it, it sucks to be strung along for this long.

  • @snarlingrabiddog5150 Thanks a lot man. I agree, the IP should have been sold to a competent publisher who would entrust it to an even more competent developer who would be able to produce results. George is the most incompetent, failure in the gaming industry.

  • @EnigmaHood not really, hes just a complex guy. Hes a perfectionist, he wanted everything to be perfect and because the graphix industry was evolving so fast back then, they changed like 3 engines just while making the game, and that was in 2 years. from 1998 to 2001 graphics changed drasticly and they just couldnt keep up. If they wouldve waited till now, and started it making now, it wouldve been out in early 2011. It would've been the most epic game of all times.

  • @EnigmaHood you should be glad that it's in gearbox's hands. cuz Randy Pitchford was a former employee of 3DR, and worked on Duke Nukem 3D & a little bit on DNF before leaving to found gearbox. so, Randy is pretty familiar with the Duke Nukem Brand. Epic games or Activision wouldn't be familiar with the Duke Nukem Franchise.

  • Had George OR his crew known a damn thing about coding polygons the game would have been released within 2 years of development. Period.

  • George should have pretended to cancel Duke Forever 10 years ago, even if he decided to develop it in secret. That way, he would have taken less flak when he failed, or cause a pleasant surprise if he succeeded.

  • He should have done that, but he wouldn't because of his big ego. Right from day 1, he believed that he could finish the game in a reasonable amount of time. That was over 13 years ago. Even to this day he claims he can finish the game. He is either a liar, in denial, or mentally ill. Perhaps all three.

  • Don't know the guy personally, but everything I've ever read in print from Broussard's mouth (interviews, etc), the guy's an ass with a very big mouth that he seems to have repeatedly shoved his foot into several times throughout his career.

  • How coud u get in contact with George? By the way my bad for callin u a joke, u truely kno wut ur talkin about, u need to show this to all duke fans

  • George? I'm not sure. Maybe on the 3DR forums if he still posts there.

  • Lol wtf is this guy some kind of Joke? True with your comments about duke, but still agree !

  • true keep the original company but take-two may have to to get the game out personaly i think take-two can take it and they make it the best duke nukem forever as long as a comapny take it under there wing and at less take the ip or something but i think take two may do it dunno really i am i fan of duke nukem i really wont this game out but it been going on for years one day it will as duke nukem would say What a Mess

  • I would rather have the original company keep DN than Take-Two

  • Can't see the need for anyone to buy the IP....much as i love Duke Nuken, Broussard seems to have limitless greed....so we'll make do with Serious Sam eh

  • Great video. I'm a huge Duke fan, but 3Drealms and George Broussard can rot in hell. I'm glad they shut down. Broussard's greed has killed Duke and made him a joke in the game world. It's sad and frustrating to me as a fan. He needs to sell Duke to a company that will revive the franchise.

  • Thanks bro. I agree, Duke was great but 3DR, George, Joe, and Scott all suck. Hopefully Take 2 will win the lawsuit and get the Duke IP.

  • Whaaaa... Broussard is a douchebag? I know because he personally perma banned me from 3DRealms about six years ago. I wouldn't sell the Duke IP either. I would let Duke die before I would destroy any chance of restoring 3DRealms. Other investors know that 3DRealms is between a rock & hard place. They want to get rid of a competitor and gain their products and trademarks in the process. 30 million is chump change. You don't realize what the license is worth.

  • George should get his shit straight. He's letting down all the fans. Numerous delays and little sneak peak videos and screenshots aren't going to cut it. He needs to bite the bullet. If the game is released, and that's an IF, it will blow the shit out of all the other games I've played to date.

  • I'm a bit of a duke nukem fanboy myself and all I can say is I agree!

    the Greed has indeed ruined my opinion of 3dR as a whole and the duke franchise has become a joke... its sad really...

  • I think that ANYBODY that reads this comment should send this video to George Broussard.

  • By all means. :)

    I think that fat, greedy bastard needs to face his critics at some point. Accountability is something he lacks.

  • I agree. He needs to take responsability and say," Hey, if I don't do this one little thing (sell the IP), then all the Duke Nukem fans will pay, they will never get this great fanaly that is a trubute to their favorite Duke Nukem game." I'm new to your channel, this is the first video of yours I've seen, and I watched it yesterday. But you sound like a smart guy, you made alot of good points. I think if somone sends this to him, he might actually get the hint and do what he needs to do..

  • Thanks for your kind words. Don't forget to watch my other 3D Realms/Duke Nukem videos XD

  • You're welcome. And I will. And it's kinda nice to see somone else that's sophisticated but can still enjoy games like this. Because most of the time it's the ignorent people you see playing these games and all they seem to care about in a game is blood and boobs. People like you and me on the other hand can sit down and enjoy the artistic qualities of a game as well as the action. Anyway, if ask me George should go to first-person mericle workers like Bethesta Softworks.

  • Ur right he's not working on it anyway so just sell the ip

  • Thank you. I strongly believe that Bethesta Softworks, with their experience with first person shooters, will do wonders for this game. Not only in graphics but they'll look back at the beauty of the classic Duke Nukem games, and bring that back in the most fantastic way you can imagine.

  • take all the game development... sell it to a game developer that will respect Duke Nukem Forever.... perhaps ID Software and then make a bomb and fuck this brousard guy if he comes back with rights and laws... thats what Duke would do.

  • all 3drealms had to do is churn out the same shit like they did after duke nukem 3d then take 2 and the fan boys would have been happy

  • You have Right that asshole George Broussard Use the fucking money 2 Play W.O.W. and many other shit! i hate George Broussard his friends Joel say what he did and u have 100% Right :D

  • I don't blame him for wanting to keep the IP.

    it would be like giving up an arm

    It's pride

    not greed

  • It's greed when you are making the fans suffer for your pride. Don't be a moron for the rest of your life.

  • A moron considers a two part personal name "two words".

  • That doesn't even make sense.

  • It does but he's also wrong. A first name AND a last name is considered two words.

  • greed and pride i would say.

    its kinda like knowing your wrong.... but not wanting to say that your wrong.

    plus if he has the ip. hell... he has every right not to give it up.

    it sucks. cuz the game looked good of what has been leaked.

    all we can hope is he does sell it, and someone like bungie picks it up lol

    anyway good vid. very informative :)

  • if he turned down the 30m offer

    its not greed douche.

  • nice fucking cape btw =D batman :p

  • Lol thanks.

  • dude you look like muhamed hassan from WWE

  • In this moment Duke is not dead. Even if 3DRealms where bankrupted every shooter games developer whant the name "Duke Nukem" for themselves.

  • Heres hoping George will actually give them it, whether for some money or just give it away. A lot of people have waited a long time for DNF to be released. All George is doing right now is turning his back on the fans and gamers just for money, despite the fact that he was offered 30 F***ING MILLION BY TAKE TWO FOR THE IP!!! Sorry, just kinda peeved by the whole thing.

  • ID Software should finish it off.

  • broussard is just a fat stupid asshole man

  • George loves the game and is a perfectionnist. He does not want duke to go any other commercial way, it must stay duke

  • Saw an article online and duke forever is being continued alongside another duke game which might be called duke begins, can anyone confirm?

  • Check out my new video called "Duke Nukem Begins?"

  • You're absolutely right, Enigma. I will also say... I was a fan of Duke Nukem 3d... but I never played the older, side-scroller DN games... nor have I ever been a "fanboy" of ANY game in the extreme sense.

    But fact is fact. No backstory needed when one simply says: "DNF has been 'in development' for 10+ yrs". & that is being generous, since it's actually 12 yrs. Even 5 would be pathetic though.

    I appreciated DN3D for Jon St. John's vocals, game innovation... but to wait 12 yrs=insane.

  • I agree with you there. D3D is much more fun than Halo. Halo was overrated... Yes, fuck 3DR. They fucked up Duke.

  • enigmahood more like vaginahood am i right?

  • fanboy much? seriously, what he is saying is the truth.. I loved the DN franchise but 3DR has destroyed it with their incompetence..

  • Thanks Brandon, you are absolutely correct.

  • well.. it makes me really sad honestly.. I don't WANT to dog 3DR.. but hey, a spade is a spade.. You'd have to be wearing some thick fanboy goggles not to see what an epic failure they are.. 13 years of almost complete media blackout and "When Its Done".. seriously.. I tried to be patient but that shit would piss Gandhi off!

  • This is where the old book would come in handy, thou shall not kill. Damn you George!!!

  • You have a Bruce Lee poster :D Cool room you got !!! ..mr. smart ass afro samurai

  • ahahah this is funny because people actually give a shit about Duke Nukem Forever.

    Seriously, almost 11 minutes of this? The best part is how you label yourself as some kind of freedom fighter that's "exposing these awful men" for what they are.

    Grow up, it's a video game that was nothing more than a testament to a dead era, no one cares about Duke anymore and no one gives a shit about you or George Broussard. I searched "George Broussard" hoping for some footage of RL swine and I got this.

  • Im with this guy. Eat shit and die hood! hahahah

  • Somebody wants justice over this duke nukem thing. its just all one big scandal.

  • if it was a "dying era" we wouldn't still have sequels to Quake, Doom and Wolf3D coming down the pipe as we speak. I think maybe you're talking out of your ass. If nobody cared about Duke then Take Two wouldn't have offered 30 million for the rights to the I.P

  • those are also complete reinventions of the series, not to mention that those games were actually good. By "era", I mean a time when developers were focusing their gameplay on a hero that spits recycled quips and does whatever it takes to be "edgy" by putting tits in their game. Why do you think we also never had Blood 3, or maybe another Shadow Warrior? Take 2 offered them money for the IP because they knew that capable hands could take it in the right direction and actually make some money

  • that's a valid point.. but for me Duke was always about the gameplay. The trip bomb, pipe bomb, security cams, Holoduke, jetpack,steroids.. it was just so over the top and to this day I haven't played many FPS deathmatch that have been nearly as fun as D3D.. that's saying a lot!

  • BTW, DN3D IS "actually good" in case you were implying that it wasn't.

  • I was halfway implying that Duke 3D is a pretty mediocre game. I can't argue that it isn't a classic, but Blood is better in many ways. Duke brought some very unique things to the table with the Holoduke and security camera use, but overall the game doesn't really stand the test of time as a great shooter. Blood, on the other hand, manages to retain the level of fun throughout the game and its two expansions. To each is own, though.. I can't dictate what is fun to you.

  • I'd definitely like to see more Blood games as well as a Thief sequel.. Why game devs think we need 500 Call of Duty clones is beyond me..

  • I think there is a new Thief game coming out.

  • there was no blood 3 cause blood 2 wasn't success. And Monolith was developing NOLF series. Well untill FEAR. FEAR is sort of Blood 3. Sorry, but Caleb won't comming back (at least not in near future). And Blood wasn't in any case related to 3DR.

  • I prefer to pretend that Blood 2 doesn't even exist. FEAR is not even close to Blood in any way, it's awful in every sense of the word. Blood 3 doesn't NEED to come out because I can almost guarantee that not one single developer that worked on Blood are part of the Monolith team anymore. The era of small development teams creating triple-A games is long gone, which is a great example of why Duke Nukem Forever failed.

  • Hmm indeed. I only briefly played Blood 2, and I came to the conclusion that it barely had anything to do with Blood. It took place in the future instead of the past, and the whole feeling of "Blood" was gone. I didn't play much of it, but maybe one day I will. In any case, I will always love Blood 1. Check out Redneck Rampage if you are a fan of Blood or Duke3D.

  • Well there goes my hopes of Seeing Wang (shadow warrior) coming back after duke nukem.

  • Well i would think the tens of thousands of Duke fans would dissagree with you and kick your fat head in for being so blind to the ways of video game history.

  • Hahaha, tens of thousands? Finally, the legions of retarded man-children are finally in the minority of gamers! You know shit's bad when your fan base has only fallen to the "tens of thousands", especially when mediocre trash like Halo dominates in the millions.

  • I've talked to george numerous times in the past on the forums. He was an arrogant prick. Never gave us any info, nothing. He fucked us all over. I've been waiting for this since I was a child. I am now a grown man. It feels like part of my life has been taken from me. I hope that scumbag gets what's comin to him.

  • Yeah man, he totally fucked us over by not making that video game that I REALLY wanted to play.. god I can't believe that asshole did that, I'm so furious that he had the nerve to do this to me. Duke is a god and when he finally finds a suitable avatar for this feeble earth, he will make sure that George gets the justice he deserves for what he did to us.

  • I will smite thee!

  • Duke has always been my childhood hero, i am a HUGE Duke fan but i agree with you 100% expept for poin16, George isn't paying for it because he don't give a shit about duke, we as the fans of the games are paying for it because 13 years of our lives have been flushed down the drain. I hope someone kicks the living shit out of george.

  • Nicely said.

  • What? You know shit sucks when the pinnacle of your life for the last 13 years was waiting for Duke Nukem Forever to come out.

  • I think they should have sticked with the Unreal engine and finish the game with it in 2002. There's a trailer which dates back to 2001 or so, which looked pretty decent. 3DRealms should have had a dose of humility and complete the game 100% instead of deleting that 40% which was done already to start again with a new engine every time.

  • "HAHA! You no wanta' low wang!"

    They should have sold at least the "Shadow Warrior" rights, to get a little extra scrap to produce DNF. Or Max Payne, or something.

    Bad business here, gentleman. Bad business indeed.

    I wonder if George is an alcoholic. That would explain his mood swings and complete lack of commitment.

  • Problem is, no one would want to buy the terrible Shadow Warrior IP. Max Payne was already sold actually.

    That's a good hypothesis. George could very well be an alcoholic, or have some kind of substance abuse problem. It would explain a fuck load of things.

  • i'm a duke, doom, and video game fan(boy) and i like your videos since you get the truth out as well as inform people properly.,

  • Thanks a lot my man.

  • The only issue you missed was that Take 2 never agreed to complete DNF. Of course you would think that spending $30mil on the IP they would finish it, but the fact is they never agreed to release it/make it in the fine print.

  • selling it could of been good take two is a good developing company and he passes it up ! word DUMBASS

  • It's vexing that GB hasn't come out with a statement of any sort. I find it hard to believe that his legal or business interests would be threatened by him making a statement thanking the fans, apologizing to the fans, or declaring his intent on seeing DNF released. The longer he stays silent the less respect his fans will have of him - not that there are very many fans left to defend him or 3DR.

    GB makes John Romero look like a great guy and competent developer by comparison.

  • Yeah I mean at least Daikatana came out. People ragged on Romero for countless delays on Daikatana, but.... What about DNF? Yeah Daikatana sucked but at least he finished the fucking thing. DNF and George are a disgrace to the industry. Boycott their products. There isn't much, but anything they produce, boycott it.

  • @EnigmaHood Don't forget, Romero had a successful track record prior to Diakatana. What did George ever do prior to DN3D? What did he ever do afterwards? Nothing.

  • i am curious, too..why goerge brousard hasn't made any statement..he is very busy and the compay hasn't got any money..

  • You hit the whole situation spot on!

    GB has always struck me as pretty selfrightious on the 3Drealms board, and now there are facts supporting it.

    Would love to see more games like Duke Nukem and Shadow Warrior nowadays! Games are too serious! The last FPS I've truely enjoyed was FarCry, that kinda had the dukish feel to it.

  • Thanks a lot. I agree, George was arrogant, and deceptive. He kept assuring everyone that DNF production was going fine, and the game was definitely going to be released. He lied, everything wasn't fine, and the company closed down before the game was released. Of course now he's trying to claim that 3DR is still in business. Nice try George.

  • making a video and jacking off at the same tiem? SOOOOOOOOO much win

  • So much potential wasted by poor management.

    Such a shame v,v

  • Comment removed

  • I think that game would have sucked. I enjoyed it so much in 1996. I enjoyed Shadow Warrior even more...

    ...but that was a decade ago. Shooting pigs and Tigers is not that fun today as it once was...

    Half-naked babes are also no more that interesting. There have been tons of games featuring naked women since that time...

    I doubt the ability of 3D Realms to develop a great game after all these years. But Nuke is still cool :)

  • I never played too much of Shadow Warrior, although I did beat the shareware version. It was a pretty good game, but Redneck Rampage, and Blood were both far better IMO. I LOVE Blood. Highly recommend it to any Duke 3D fan.

  • I don't know the game Redneck Rampage but Blood was and still is the best 3d shooter of all time for me. As I commented already I think that eventually the guys who developed Blood would be able to make the next Duke.

    Although I'm not a great gamer I've been into gaming since 1983. And I've enjoyed just a few games truly: Space Quest, Descent, Blood, Diablo, Starcraft, Chronicles of Riddick, Duke 3D, SW, Planescape Torment.

  • Space Quest is awesome. SQ4 is still my fav. I've played pretty much all of those games except SW (not sure what that is), and Planescape Torment (although I have heard of this, and always wanted to play it).

    You should DEFINITELY check out Redneck Rampage. It uses the Build Engine, the same engine used by Duke3D, Blood, and Shadow Warrior.

  • I think your comments are pretty good. Duke probably appeals just to a few old timers like myself who had fun playing during the first year of collage.

  • Blood was the best BUILD shooter, by far.

    And even when you say the Duke Nukem IP has faded from the public eye, you are still giving it too much credit.

    Duke Nukem the character and universe is a relic that languishes in the pit with the FMV games, no one will ever take it seriously in this day and age, and even if it was marketed as an action throwback, the only people who will buy it are the 3DR forumites.

  • ... day by day however, things seem to get more realistic and serious, with the supposed marketing stunt looking more like a mere conspiracy theory.

    lol I personally would love for it all to be true - for the love and respect of a once great franchise - , for DNF to be unveiled as a complete project at E3 this year, but I'm beginning to greatly doubt this fairy tale.

    In the end, it might actually turn out to be just what you pointed out - over 12 years of complete incompetence and greed : (

  • You know, the whole recent situation with DNF and the closedown of 3D Realms has been quite surreal. In the first couple of days everyone was holding that this is entirely a marketing scheme and that DNF is finally complete, with 3D Realms playing a joke and getting ready to surprise the hell out of everyone this June at E3 with the game Then they get sued by Take 2 and some people are still like wow! This stunt has court papers and everything! xD

  • Hey thanks a lot! Yeah, a lot of fanboys thought this was all a clever ploy by 3DR to gain free publicity. Well surprise fanboys, they really DID shut down. To add insult to injury, Take Two sues 3DR. Now the fanboys finally start to realize the truth and they are getting pissed off because of it. But as always, fanboys are just idiots. Lets hope Take Two bleeds 3DR dry with their lawsuit. Thanks a lot for subscribing :)

  • Is it possible for take two to get the duke Souce code and IP to complete the game themselves and release the game on PC and port it to Consoles?!

  • Yes, it's possible if they win the lawsuit.

  • Enigma, this is the first time I'm watching a video from you and I must say, I'm quite happy I ran across your channel. You seem to have some pretty interesting stuff; I've subscribed and I'll definitely watch more of your videos from now on.

    Regarding this particular topic, I have to say, I'm finally getting some interesting, in-depth information on 3D Realms and their supposed DNF development, and I'm very glad to hear things from this point of view. (instead of the usual Take 2 demonizing)

  • George Brussard sounds like a total dick. I agree, why the fuck would you not get that money.

    Your right about it being incompetence, but seriously man. The guy fucked himself over, it's his own fault

    DUKE NUKEM FOREVER.. I hope it does come out it's looking like a classic, why is this taking so long.. ?? The IP should have been sold, lol. Valve could do it, it wouldn't harm it I don't think, in fact to be honest. Valve would be ideal because when Half Life came it out it was massive.

  • I don't think that Valve can do it. Their characters cannot even speak! The best company I can think of for Duke wold be Monolith. They created once the best shooter ever - Blood 1. Caleb was not as cool as Duke but the game was much better than Duke 3D.

  • If everything is true what you say in the video, as a Duke fan i will say that George is an idiot. period

  • From what I heard recently, Scott said that they were never offered 30 million for the Duke IP. If he was, he would have sold it, allegedly. But that's Scott of course, we never heard George's opinion on the matter. We just heard the rumor that he was offered a large sum of money to sell the IP but refused. He does own at least half of the Duke IP of course.

  • But why are they doing this? are they seriously retarded? And I don't get the other Duke fans, why are they on George and Scotts jock? They haven't given us a shit in 12 years how am I gonna support them? Still love Duke though

  • They support them because of the 3DR forums. By having that open line of communication with the fans, they get fan worship from brainwashed fools. They are absolved from criticism, and all of their decisions are infallible. Not everyone drank the Kool-Aid though. I left the forums on my own freewill because of their bullshit. Take Two really needs to sue the shit out of 3DR. Let them bleed every cent out.

  • I still hang around the forums though. But I fucking hate 3D Realms, I only like the games. But they are retards... They don't give fuck about us fans if you think about it. I wish more fans could open there eyes and see this reality. fuck Joe,Scott and George. I don't care if they made Duke. THEY FUCKED IT UP!

  • Dont you think that even with the financial crisis that someone else will buy the rights to this game and finish it, with or without George Broussard?.

  • With the new lawsuit, that complicates matters a lot. According to new sources, Scott said he would have been glad to sell the Duke IP for 30 mil, but it was never offered to him. All we know for sure right now is that Take Two is suing 3D Realms. It'll be at least a year before the case is heard. Who knows what's going to happen between now and then.

  • Well, if that is the case, i believe that Take Two will win the case, and probably the rigts to the game as well, and who knows? if George Broussard dont want tol loose alot of money, he might have to finish the game with almost no funding and under there command?.

  • Keep The duke nukem and 3drealms updates coming, your my source for news on that so im subscribing to you :P

  • Ok. Enigma, I have NO IDEA what Duke Nukem is.

  • Don't worry about it :P

  • Um... ok. lol

  • Cant believe that SOB didnt sell the intelectual property rights! Now its never going to be finished!

    I would gladly get in contact with that fat bastard per email and tell him what i think but i have no idea how!

    That fat m*****f*****!! I just hope he leaves the gaming business behind! He should open up a computer store or something and piss off!!

  • Rumor has it G.B. is trucking all over looking for some high-profile developer to pick it up. EA and Microsoft are the supposed companies. Personally, I still think it's probable the game might happen. It was pretty much nearing completion when 3DR shut. They can't just dump Duke like this!

  • George Broussard created Duke Nukem Forever.

  • He also buried it!

  • yeah but you know what they say

    "Humans are greedy;

    Therefore, they are human"

  • The worst thing that could happen.

    Did.

  • Great points. Personally I would like to see Bioware to pick it up. Look what they did for the Fallout francise and would LOVE to see what they would do with it.

  • Well actually it was Bethesda who picked up Fallout from Interplay. Fallout 1 was developed by an internal dev team at Interplay. For Fallout 2 that dev team became Black Isle Studios. The Fallout IP was then bought by Bethesda, who treated the IP with a lot of respect. They did a great job with it.

  • See didn't know all that. Seriously though think they could do a lot with it overall. I think everyone had given up on Duke by now and maybe a new developer could breath a real new life into it. Heck its Duke 3d is only 400pts to DL on XBL.

  • Agreed. Im still not sure why people talk shit about fo3 and call it a terrible unfaithful game.

  • Fallout fanboys are a lot like Duke Nukem fanboys. Small in number but ravenous, loud, obnoxious, and incredibly stupid.
