Apparently some "fan" got hold of some footage and made this so call trailer and even dubbed in the voice/sound...but as a huge original duke fan I think the game-play looks like fun.

Yep, we don't know exactly when that footage was taken either. Most game's graphics don't look that impressive in early builds. I remember when the first video/screens of God of War 3 came out people were complaining about how mediocre the graphics looked for a PS3 game. When the game was finally released that wasn't the case.

The game looks nowhere near done. If you watch the video you only see bits of a maximum of two levels. There's a underwater sea base/factory type level and there's a wild west type level with a lot of wooden structures.

If the game was further along, you'd think there would be more than 2 levels in the entire trailer.

"It's time to kick a$$ and play Duke Nukem Forever, except there is no Dukle Nukem Forever!"

This game was first advertised when I was 19.

Sigh...

I remember playing the first Duke Nukem years ago, the good old days! It was a pretty sweet game for it's time. I still don't look at air vents the same way!

That video doesn't impress... though...

On the scene where Duke pushes the toolbox into the turbine, after the toolbox incinerates, it would be cool if he said, "It blends".

Believe it or not Duke Nukem Forever is back on and scheduled to release in 2011. Gearbox the makers of Borderlands is taking over development. Playable at PAX (Penny Arcade Expo).

I'm curious how much was done by 3DRealms prior to Gearbox taking over. They did have like 10 years to work on it. Hopefully Gearbox had some freedom to insert their own touches/personality into it. Borderlands was funny.

You're right in saying 3DRealms had 10 years to work on it. But the last iteration they were using was a modified Unreal Engine 2.0, if I remember correctly they re-worked the engine like 2-3 times completely. Let's just say their graphics wouldn't be up-to-par for the 360 or PS3 and especially PC for this day and age. They are most likely xbox graphics.

I am surprised it is done already though and they are just polishing it up.

great wired magazine article on duke nukem forever. it seems that they had too much money and too much time...until they had neither.

so many times they should have just released...

anyways...its a great article if you haven't read it.

Game looks to have ok-decent graphics which is a relief. Really hoping this game turns out to be good.
