StarscreamTheWaffle | Blaster Atoms, I fully agree with you. Bethesda is one of the greatest publishers at getting games out and making them good. The only problem, Bethesda specializes in Action RPGs, so it would be like DN3D and Mass Effect, Fallout 3, or New Vegas combined. I don't know how that would work for Duke fans. And it might not be released in stores, or at least will give a bonus to those who preorder it on the Steam platform, and I'm sure that there are some people who won't feel safe with their ownership of a game tied to one account on a web service, even if Valve is good at keeping down the loss of accounts. Hell, they even say in chat what not to do. Such as, Don't give away your account information to anyone. | |

Whoa. My PC broke down last year, so I missed this one. Really ... I'm not surprised 3D Realms and the DNF team went under, what did surprise me is: 1 - it took so long 2 - they were still "trying" to do it 3 - Huh? They're still developing it? I thought they had abandoned it by now! BTW, Prey may have been cancelled in 1998, but it was one of the original reasons DNF got bumped. 3D Realms didn't want to show off its Prey engine until Prey was released, so they switched DNF to the Quake2 engine... which is another ironic event, as Duke3D took potshots at that series with the "Ain't afraid of no Quake" easter egg. Little did we know that Prey would die, and that the Q2 engine switch was the first of many switches they would do. I lost interest sometime after they switched to the Unreal one. |

Blaster Atoms | You know what would be nice? What if Bethesda bought the Duke Nukem liscence and actually put out the game, like the Fallout sequel? | |

I can't say I was a big Duke Nukem fan (please don't kill me everybody), but this was still a pretty funny article. Just a couple notes. Dr.Boogie - Kudoes on the Lewis Black reference. DNF definitely qualifies as "persistent vegitative state." ROG - Do you honestly think Diablo 3 will be worth the wait? I sure hope it is, because if it isn't, I will seriously be going on a mass killing spree the day it gets released. |

Well this is what happens when you buckle under the pressure of your own hype, wanting to remain "cutting edge and relevant", and not wanting to swallow whatever pride you have and admit to making a mistake. If it happens after, say, a year or so... people will forgive your dumb ass for such missteps... but not doing so after... 12 freaking years... just makes you look legendarily ridiculously stupid. 3D Realms shoulda released the damn thing instead of keep trying to outdo the then current FPS competition. |

Jaimas | What's the biggest bit of humor is how few of these were edited by Boogie. Normally his mock-tastic articles show a bit of digression for comedic impact, but this time, to say anything really would only have detracted from the hilarity. | |

Dr. Boogie | At least not in an "M" level title. | |

Purple Man | Damn, now I'll never get to see digital strippers rendered at a level previously unknown to man. | |

Jigby Huggletinks | Oh, wait, I'm sorry, "development cycle" implies that it came all the way around. | |

I second the Rick Roll idea. It's true that DNF had a longer development cycle than Chinese Democracy, although I'm not sure which one went through more staff. |

Very nice article, very funny. While I've never even played any of the DN games, I can't really expect DNF to have been all that great for all the hypes it's gotten. Your still my favorite writer on this site Boogie, you gonna be working on any more ROM hack reviews anytime soon? |

Chuggernaught | I think it would be spectacular if they announced the release and made a huge show of it. It would start with one really good level that turns into a rick roll. Every copy. A rick roll. It would be the ultimate fu to the fans. Then we could all move on. | |

Julio | What I would like to know is how the hell has Deckard Cain managed to stay alive during all the saga. How come that a guy that already looked old enough in the first Diablo still has his wrinkly old ass 20 years after the events in Diablo II? | |

Starcraft 2 is gonna be a blast as well, though I wish they weren't splitting it up into those 3 separate releases. They can say it was for whatever reason they want, but to us gamers, it just looks like money-grubbing. |

Nick | I liked watching that video of the unreleased game. It looked fun. | |

Dr. Boogie | It really is spectacular. I don't think there's any other way to handle this tragedy than with irony. | |
May 29th, 2009 01:27 PM | ||
Doctor_Who | Yeah, I watched that. It's got to be his best one yet. | |

rizzo | Not to point anyone to someone else's site, but Yahtzee's "review" of DNF is goddamn hilarious. | |

Dr. Boogie | The thing with Blizzard is that while one of their A-list titles was taking a while, you could be sure there was another game/expansion for a different series coming up a year or two later. Lately, it's been just a stream of WoW expansions, but who knows. Maybe Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, and the new IP they're developing will get things back on track again. | |
