Duke Nukem Forever is coming never. It's just some April Fools Day joke I told to one of my friend when we were playing Duke Nukem 3D. I'm not sure if it was the April Fools Day, but it definitely is some April Fools Day joke.

Today != April Fools Day

"I just got PC Gamer's June issue and apparently after previewing Prey, 3D Realms showed them a demo of Duke Nukem Forever showing "that DNF is up and running and in very fine form indeed." According to Broussard, "Most of the weapons and creatures are done. Most of the levels exist, and there's a ton of gameplay. We're in the process of pulling it all together, and very much look forward to showing it off. It won't be vaporware much longer." The article talks about demos of interactions with the environments, saying they're in the spirit of those in Duke Nukem 3D. They also report that DNF won't be shown at E3 this year, and until there is a "delux unveiling," nobody will get any more of a look at it."

"In the article Broussard mentions that after switching to the Unreal engine working with their own rendering modifications in 2002, they 'have been moving forward and are making progress.'"

"There was a large preview of Prey with some detail and on the last page of the preview, on the right-side of the page was a small article saying that they were in Texas and treated to demo of Duke Nukem Forever. They said it was rough, but had all the elements that make a great Duke Game, and they believe from what they saw that it would be a probable 2006 release"

"On the cover is a star medallion that says "Duke Nukem Forever - We've seen it!" The cover is art from Prey and and World-Exclusive Announcement - Prey [...] The 2006 projection is the PC Gamer author's opinion based on what he saw from the demo"


Broussard is one of the biggest jokes of the industry, in my opinion. He's delayed it for so long, and if you even try to discuss the release day on the forums you get warned or banned.

I know, that's why I told that joke about 10 years ago while we were still playing Duke Nukem 3D.

Duke Nukem 3D was the first game I ever bought for computer. I was 8 years old. Hardly suitable for one though. :D

Even though those screenshots are old as hell, it still looks promising.

Btw, there has been an engine switch since those screenshots. So it'll look pretty much completely different.

Actually there were no engine switches, they're still working from the first Unreal engine as the prime base, however they improved the fuck out of it with their own stuff + licsensed meqon physics.

Well he probably wasn't referring to the Quake2 shots which don't make us exclaim what's good about them anymore :P

THE 1999 SHOTS ARE HOT THOUGH

There are only quake 2 shots, the switch was in 2001 :P

Prey looks like it's gonna be great too :D
