Polish it a bit more and put it our next year. Black Ops will kill you.

JohnApocalypse5004d ago

I agree. There are too many FPSs coming out this fall

Brewski0075004d ago

If it was any more polished it'd slip outta the console. Its fine bring it out now. As far as i'm concerned, black ops and medal of honor are designed to be realistic war shooters, while duke nukem sticks it to the man with un-matchable witty one liners and pure fun. Screw it, Duke Nukem Forever cant come sooner now. Been too long.

This article is confusing. It says at first: "Gearbox hopes to release the game next year.", but then near the bottom they say that it will be shipping this year.

Contradictions. They suck :(

Kingdom Come5004d ago

We dont know how long Gear Box have been working on the game and they didnt make it from scratch, they added to what had already been developed for over a Decade...
Besides, even if they did give it another year, they would just be bad mouthed, as would the franchise and they would be insulted for not bringing it out sooner.
It would seem as though its a lose/lose situation, people are going to complain either way...

tdogg060519915004d ago

Hey I am so antsy for this game, but sales matter and it won't sell if it comes out. I want it to sell thats what matters.

Mista T5003d ago

Duke Nukem can easily get rid of Black Ops. he's gonna sh*t down its neck :P

Why not actually read the article you're submitting before posting it?

"Gearbox hopes to release the game next year."

MasterChief36245004d ago

Except that in the last paragraph, they contradict themselves and say that it's shipping this year. :\

lastdual5004d ago (Edited 5004d ago )

To be fair, the article actually contradicts itself. In the 3rd paragraph, it says:

"Gearbox hopes to release the game next year."

and then in the last paragraph:

"The game is currently expected to ship in 2010"

Probably a typo by the article's author. 2011 is much more likely.

Kal11385004d ago

Just a mistake from the article. He probably checked the last part for a release date. Either way, all other articles mention next year.

scm2ejm5004d ago

Lol, this is an April Fools joke (it is April, right?)

Hoje03085004d ago

After 13 years of bullshit, I'll believe it when it's actually in my hands.

AssassinHD5004d ago

Yeah seriously. Even when I get it in my hand I am going to be suspicious. I might have to get a couple of hours into the campaign before it really sinks in.

Nac5004d ago

And Save Duke Nukem Forever!!!

Dandizzle604d ago

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

Snookies12604d ago

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g604d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

porkChop646d ago

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

Number1TailzFan646d ago

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot646d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan646d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel646d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
