Duke Nukem Forever Trailer....Tomorrow

Jim

Such lies

This just in from George Broussard over on the 3D Realms Forums:

"Last Saturday we had our annual company Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual but it featured one special surprise. It turns out that several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video for those at the party. They created a short teaser for Duke Nukem Forever.

After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, here is a screen shot taken from the teaser.

Thank you for being fans of the game and for your continued patience.

I'd like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John)."

That's right, it's the end of times. Now translating that from 3D Realms Central Time that means we should be checking out the video around 2 p.m. Mountain, 2027.

I think I wee'd myself a little.

Are we about to lose a long-running internet joke? Or is it just going to turn into something else?

Stephen

Too bad I don't care about it any more, eh 3D Realms?

projectmayhem

i read this, and laughed.

the buzz is either this'll be great and make us want the game, or be like every other videogame trailer of late, and be CG purely for marketing purposes.

my bet's on the latter. surely they're nowhere near releasing proper footage of the game, since earlier in the year they were saying there are various bits of the game completed in different game engines from different era's.

Do people really expect this game to....

A) Ever be released

or

Be any good?


The concept is a tad outdated considering what people expect from FPS games these days.

Giblet

I bet it will be him weightlifting and saying "I'm ready to kick ass" and it will last 20 seconds.

I was thinking myself that his kind of hero is very outdated at this stage, but if the game turns out to be a nice, fun shooter with a bit of comedy thrown in I'm all for it. I'm kind of sick of bad fps protag's who take themselves too seriously.

Dont be at yourself

This is going to be great!

Kur4mA

This is surely some sort of December Fools joke...

Tusky

Britney Spears' entire musical career as a pop star has taken place during Duke Nukem Forever's development.

Kur4mA

DECEMBER FOOOOOLS! I told yis.

Giblet

I also expect reference to be made to the mastication of a non-nutritive, non-digestible, water-insoluble flavour delivery system, or the general lack of availability thereof.

Genghiz Cohen

I approve of this.

koneko

Hahahaha. A teaser. Yeah that's going to be good. [/sarcasm]
Still doesn't mean the game is ever getting released though.

Genghiz Cohen

Ohhh, 30 mins, I'm tingling!!

Ciaran500

Where?

SirLemonhead

It's been out since 5. Good luck getting it though

Mr E

Its probably going to be 5 seconds long with Duke flexing his muscles and saying a catchphrase.

Ciaran - every game site in the world will link to it in 20 minutes, so it won't be hard to find.

SirLemonhead

Wow, watching that makes it feel like 1995 all over again...

Mr E

Good old youtube.

My prediction was out by about 1m5s, but I was pretty close with the content

Genghiz Cohen

Somehow it reminds me of Carmageddon.

GhostInTheRuins

I guess I'll have to "Stay tuned"

Kur4mA

Meh, exactly as expected. What a load of bollocks.
