Rumorang: Duke Nukem on XBLA in 'next several months'

Though we're all well aware DNF isn't close to being released, rumor has it (again and again) that Duke Nukem 3D will resurrect the franchise on Xbox Live Arcade so the title's core audience, who were parking their bricks in a pair of Pull-Ons ten years ago, can learn what The Duke is all about.

If true, this would be the first 3D Realms-developed game to ship since ... well, the original Duke Nukem 3D in 1996.
