Randy Pitchford on the Duke Nukem Forever Delay

At least they've got a sense of humor about it.

Atleast now I can play Brink, LA Noire, F3ar, and Hunted before the beast that will take up a good portion of my life comes out.

Is this Anthony Burch's work, that sly devil... 
 
Also as an aside I looked at his page and that goddamn "Follow your dreams" with his sister got me again!

error5305: So you're afraid that DNF being delayed is going to develop into a pattern?
Gee, I don't really know how to break it to you but I'm afraid it's already too late for that. Some of us have been waiting for DNF since 1998 and it's been delayed quite a number of times since then. I'm afraid it has already developed into a pattern. I'm sorry for bringing you the bad news but  someone had to do it. :D

" It comes out internationally 4 days earlier? I call bull... I bet on April's Fool they release another video and go "nah we're kidding it's still May...no really the other video was a joke Duke's done."  Then it gets released in May and George Broussard returns to his timeline in peace after being exiled for 20 years. "
I really hope they do an April Fool's thing with this. That would make this all so much better.

i wonder if gearbox will ever go back into the war genre. 
 
I never played Brothers In Arms 3 but i LOVE LOVE LOVEDDDDD the first two. 
I always wanted to see it continue in some sort of spiritual successor form.

Agreed, at least they have a good sense of humor about a true delay to the game, glad it's not too long & other good games coming out in April that will keep me busy til this finally gets out.

My teacher use to write DNF for Did Not Finish. Never thought that the initials for Duke Nukem Forever would so closely follow my teacher's definition of them.

I was expecting the website at the end to link to a flash game where you kick the developers Duke style.
