"It's fun, it's in focus, we know what bits are fun and which are not, and it's just a matter of time now."
Ok, why he pointed out that it's just a matter of time now is beyond me. The main focus of Duke Nukem at this point has always been about time (how long it's taking).
In future interviews (and marketing from this point forward), how about they make it a point to try and remove the stigma of time and actually start focusing on just the game itself.
I am very curious to see how the game is shaping up though. Honestly, give me a Duke Nukem with today's physics and graphics along with the typical Duke humor and I'll be happy... no, seriously.

You know, at this point, I'm not sure I *want* it to come out. What else are we going to joke about? When we want to say something's never going to be released, we won't be able to say "after Duke Nukem Forever" anymore!
Next you'll be telling me that the Phantom console is going to be released by next Christmas. :/

Wow, a few hours eh? Well, that should be enough for about 1/4 of a demo I suppose. Judging by the development time, this game is gonna be AT LEAST 100 HOURS, and spam 5 DVDs or so.
And also@CyberKnight, very true brother, IF it ever comes out...then we lose a great joke! Hell, I would lose part of my will to live!

Several hours? What, that's about 7 or 8 hours or so? And the game will probably end up being 15 hours. So after 13 years of development, the game is about halfway done. I guess we will see the game in 2021. Can't wait.

13 years? Duke Nukem 3D wasn't even out 13 years ago. It's 11 years. So, 2019.

I'd happily watch a vid of a few minutes of these several hours of fairly polished game they have.

7 hours playable! WHOA!!! Sounds like it's about time to changeover the entire game engine again ;) Wouldn't want to threaten 'completion' at a time like this!

Wow I looked and felt young when words first hit about this game and now I look and feel old, how the years pass. At this rate I'll be dead before it comes out but at least my kids will be able to play it or maybe their kids may be more realistic. :D
