Duke Nukem, Again Forever

Duke Nukem has been serving the dark will of Persian kings for hundreds of years, and we all know that bitch likes to linger around, comfortably, while the entire gaming community is doomed to lick 3D Realms' ass with high expectations. I’ve personally learned my lesson by now - a game will be delayed even if the CEO swears on his mother’s pink lipstick otherwise, and a game will be a trukload of crap even if it is powered by Unreal - over nine thousand - Engine.

But others like to feed the trolls. Let’s take for example Dallas Business Journal, whose Staff Writer S.C. Webster is absolutely positive that Duke Nukem Forever will hit the shelves in late 2008, even if Scott Miller himself suggests, in a friendly e-mail exchange, that 3D Realms hasn’t made any official statements regarding this issue. Actually, about this casual deadline, Miller hints at some possible delays (oh noez!), probably because they are pushing the title onto the next-gen consoles, as well.

So, the point is, we still have no launch date confirmation. And we still have people over the Internet hyping this game more than they should.
