Amazon UK lists Duke Nukem Forever for December release

Online news site The Inquirer did some
digging through Amazon.com's UK site and has found a
listing
for Duke Nukem Forever that lets you pre-order the game (for £24.99) or buy it with Quake 4 for a
discount, and gives a release date of December 2, 2005.
Don't get your hopes up, though, this is probably just Amazon UK being greedy – the game is not listed on
GameStop,
EBgames, or even Amazon.com's US
site. 3D Realms, the company that has been working on Duke Nukem Forever since 1997, has repeatedly
stated that it'll be done "when it's ready" and that "once we
begin taking pre-orders, believe us, you'll know about it." Our advice is to ignore the order page entirely, and do not
give it a second thought unless we start seeing some screenshots of the game in the coming months.
[Thanks, bandersnatch]

Ah, yes, Duke Nukem Forever, the game with one foot in the vaporware, one foot in the... grave? I think DNF is short for "Does Not Finish." Anyway, I've been waiting for it since 1997, but can't hope feeling that I'll be let down when it does come out, nor the feeling that I won't be able to run it either.

I just want to clarify that there is in no way a discount for buying both of those games together. Do the math.

pretty silly gaming sites do this, but then again the usually put a game up a long time before it gets released and just keep pushing on the release date.
