    I really hope that the Curse of Duke does not destroy Gearbox.

    So what's the over/under on gearbox going out of business before this sees the light of day? 
     
    This piques my interest only slightly, and that has everything to do with how much I loved borderlands and not because I actually care about the Duke games or character

    It is great to see this come out and I bet this will be some campy fun like Prey but I hope people realize that this is not going to blow minds to be the next step in games.

    Eh, cool I guess. Certainly not picking up the PC port since Gearbox is clearly a console dev now.

    This game will probably be a massive flop when it is released, but it cant harm 2K since they've spent loads on it.

    This game is gonna rule, Duke Nukem rules, all you nay-saying children and manchildren are gonna be left behind during the Rapture when the Dukeocalypse hits the world on release date, always bet on Duke, balls of steel, etc.

    I have a feeling you're right. There will probably be a lot of disappointed fans, and Gearbox will become a laughing stock. Also, even if the game comes out, there might be a small percentage of fans, but I have a feeling more then 90% will hate it, even if it's good....because it's not the same as the one for the N64 or PS.

    Sure, why not! I just hope they give him real lines rather than ripping off John Carpenter and Sam Raimi one-liners.

    This.  I really don't care that, after all these years, it's said that the game will finally be "finished".  Until the public can actually buy the game, I'm not convinced this is coming out.

    Saw the 2k ustream of the demo gameplay and interviews, looked good and gearbox are a good developer so if anyone can finish a title they can. 
     
    whether it would ever live up to the stupidly large hype or ridicule is another matter howevr.

    So... 
     
    StarCraft II - shipped. 
     
    Gran Turismo 5 - to be shipped. 
     
    Duke Nukem Forever - to be completed.  
     
    My world has turned upside-down!

    Seriously. WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?! Good luck WITH ALLLL THAT, GEARBOX.
     
    ALSO: That episode of HOT SPOT is so CLASSIC. So funny because it's TRUE.
     
    EDIT: I can't wait for a repeat of this from Jeff on one of the PAX Prime podcasts.

    I'm still of the opinion that Duke Nukem is way too crass to work in the modern today.  I have no plans to even care about it, I wonder why anyone does...

    That was put on the backburner by Sega untill Rebellion finished the AvP game. And Gearbox has been helping out whit DNF for a long time so I think they have several teams working on different games. How else do you think they have been working on DNF, Borderlands and ACM at the same time. This will most likely not affect other games in development at Gearbox. Only think that can derail the ACM is Sega.

    If there is a collectors edition, the number of making-of DVD's will be over 9000.....

    I just realized the abbreviation for Duke Nukem Forever, is DNF. In the world of racing, that stands for: Did Not Finish! Coincidence?!?!? DUM DUM DUUMMMM!!!

    I don't know if coming out 12 years late really justifies betting on Duke.  Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

    Holy crap. Is this really happening? A release date that actually isn't a fucking lie? And by a developer who actually wants to complete it and satiate the fans? George Broussard is such a dickhole. Randy Pitchford is the man who is making this shit happen.
