"This is a bit confusing, so bear with me. This week's revival of the Apogee Software brand represents a second Apogee Software--Apogee Software LLC--which is dedicated to mobile games. And while formed with the assistance of 3D Realms' Scott Miller and George Broussard, both are totally removed from any Apogee Software LLC-related management decisions"
Taken from the shacknews article. I don't know who made that turd. Also this is a DS/PSP game, not DNF.

New DNF pics. Apparently it's REAL

Original Story: Tucked away within this week's Xbox 360 release of Duke Nukem 3D were two new screenshots of 3D Realms' long-in-development sequel Duke Nukem Forever.
Available only upon earning all of the game's achievements, the screenshots can be found within the Duke Nukem 3D art gallery.

This game really isn't going to happen and if it does come out it's going to be shit anyways.

Open to interpretation. lol
I think it means they are done adding features. They are probably going to trim the game down to what they intend to ship this year. Whether that implies a release date this year or not .. well who knows.
Yeah, I'm not too familiar with development jargon phrases, but Google helped me. "If a feature isn’t coming together, it’s usually far better to decide NOT to deliver a particular feature then to have that feature jeopardize the ability to ship the whole system."
So yeah, thanks George. We don't need pixel-shaded urine for when Duke visits the bathroom at the strip club. You can safely leave that out, and save it for a patch. Much obliged.
I also took the entry to mean that they're aiming for a 2009 release. But HAH, we'll see, won't we?

Yeah I'm thinking 2009 as well, though I wouldn't be surprised at an early 2010 release either. Depends on how much they are going to polish after the cut phase. Cutting probably implies that they are at a point were they have more then enough already in the game. Now they're just going to trim the edges and make it presentable. Which is kind of strange since Jace hall was actually playing it a few months back. And he said hes seen games ship in a less completed form. "Featurefreeze" might be relevant. I'm at a point with DNF were I don't really care about the graphics. If it's fun and keeps me entertained throughout then I'll be happy.
It might also be best to take the whole thing with a grain of salt. It might just be George's new years resolution as it's his first post on twitter since December. Or it might not even be about dnf? though the Duke mighty boot would point to something Duke related. Might just be a cocktease.
Considering he's only taking a carry on... maybe the games already on a dvd/bluray or maybe just an external harddrive. ..or a laptop.

Still interesting. There are also newer comments.
I think we might be seeing the departure of the hype train in a few weeks or months.

I am wondering which is going to come out first? Duke Nukem Forever which has been in development/vaporware for 10+ years or Darkfall which has been in development/vaporware for 8+ years?
Both are supposed to be released some time this year but neither have shown anything worthwhile! Oh internet how I love thee.

If that article isn't a load of crap. Then Darkfall will be released first.
Release dates you can put on a calendar are better than "WiD"
I actually wouldn't be surprised if DNF was not a 2009 title and instead aimed for a very early 2010 release. But since it's still WID. Well, who know. I ain't waiting forever.

Not really. Tell that to the people that pre-ordered Duke Nukem Forever who still have their old receipts ready to pick it up! Those stores had a date attached to it!Ramen4ever said:
Looks like Darkfall is going to have like a week of beta then its off to release (All aboard the failboat).
Any word if The Duke is going to make an appearance at the new E3 this year?

Yeah Amazon still does pre-order if I'm not mistaken. Strangely enough they change their official "release date" to next year, every year. Stores don't make games and they don't decide when a game is released. I did a quick glance over of the Darkfall website. Their last front page "release date" news was still going on about a January release. So I don't think I'm going to place too much faith into the Feb release date.

Last I recall George.. or maybe it was Scott, said that E3 doesn't matter. That was quite a while ago but I don't think they're going to make an appearance this year.
I am curious as to what kind of advertising 3dr and 2k will do. So far they've already done some viral stuff thanks to the Jace Hall show. (Which btw is actually pretty funny, sometimes)
