Wired hails Duke Nukem Forever as 2008's vaporware king, baby

Keeping the dream alive that DNF may be coming to the end of a very, very (x12) long development cycle was its appearance on the Jace Hall show earlier this year. However, that was followed up by more teaser images. Keep hope alive, Duke faithful. Keep hope alive.

Ugh I'll just develop it myself so I don't have to hear about it anymore.
Jakka ( The Order of Haters of Balance) @ Dec 29th 2008 7:40PM
Would be funny if the game didn't get the same bloody award every year...
Alien Lord @ Dec 30th 2008 12:40AM
What would be funnier is if actually came out someday and to top it off it's actually good (unlike a certain sci-fi Norse game).
dabamf @ Dec 29th 2008 7:40PM
They were about to leave it off the list, but then a video popped up of a playable version of the game...vaporware once again!
NFK @ Dec 29th 2008 7:45PM
What's funny is that it will most likely be average/suck once/if it is released.
Foetoid @ Dec 29th 2008 8:59PM
I guess any game thats had this much development time and storyline-work HAS to be crap. If anything, this much development time should make for one of the best games ever made.
NFK @ Dec 29th 2008 9:19PM
The development time is irrelevant because the game has switched engines and been redone some many times that Duke Nukem Forever today is not the same game as Duke Nukem Forever in 1997.
Story? Since when has Duke Nukem been good for it's story?
Levi @ Dec 29th 2008 7:44PM
Vaporware? You guys kidding? I've beaten this game like a zillion times already... Don't you know it's been out for so long that it's already popping up on abandonware sites..
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 29th 2008 7:48PM
Seriously? Oh man. I was busy playing Half-life conclusion.
All those games, expansions and episodes worth every penny, the ending of the series is just priceless *sob.
Who knew Gman was Gordon all along.
Haggard @ Dec 29th 2008 8:05PM
I just finished Halo 4. Chief's in it.
Kye says: I hate friend codes...Nintendo! @ Dec 29th 2008 8:23PM
Gears of War 3...
Superb!
You won't believe what happens to Baird.
ice~ @ Dec 29th 2008 10:18PM
I heard carmine came back from the dead and gang banged (raped) Baird with the help of Dizzy.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 29th 2008 10:33PM
Knowing Cliff Ice I wouldn't be surprised if that was the Insane ending in the next Gears of War.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 29th 2008 7:45PM
Starcraft 2? Really?
No love for Gran Turismo Portable.
NOT ME @ Dec 29th 2008 10:26PM
word i completely forgot about gt:portable...lol
Sidebuster @ Dec 29th 2008 7:46PM
Some day duke... some day... You never know, it might be the most awsome FPS to ever have come out. I will just have to wait (x12) more years to find out I guess
The Dark Wayne @ Dec 29th 2008 8:01PM
no it'll probably suck
Sidebuster @ Dec 29th 2008 8:22PM
Yeah your probably right... /sigh
Haggard @ Dec 29th 2008 8:43PM
It'll be a big seller though.. people will want it for the post-vaporware ironic value.
Markez (Anti-Panda Death Murder Squadron) @ Dec 29th 2008 7:49PM
I will also embrace redundancy.

Moptimus Slime @ Dec 29th 2008 7:51PM
What about that awesome game Dennis Dyack has been working on since the PS1 days? I'm still waiting for that game to come out.
Mark C @ Dec 29th 2008 9:56PM

Fx.Dr @ Dec 29th 2008 8:26PM

Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 29th 2008 8:32PM
Xbox 360 achievements.
The Dark Wayne @ Dec 29th 2008 9:29PM
you cut me real deep Mr Esc
Wiinterfang @ Dec 29th 2008 8:55PM
The need to release a Demo that could hold us up for at least 300 years.
Lee @ Dec 29th 2008 9:07PM
The game is actually quite fun.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 29th 2008 9:15PM
You don't know what fun is until you have played Sky Roads Universe.
Danzaiver @ Dec 29th 2008 10:21PM
Just finished Alan Wake, the BEST GAME EVER!
On New Year I'm gonna play Max Payne 3
Foetoid @ Dec 30th 2008 2:10AM
Great! Another person who hasn't played the real best game ever (Tales of Symphonia on GC). *sigh*
dugbuzz @ Dec 29th 2008 10:30PM
I seriously read this entire post thinking that DNF stood for Did Not Finish (ala Horse Racing)
Can you blame me?
Draco @ Dec 30th 2008 8:44AM
Thought the same thing, thought it was redundant. :) oh well at least I'm not alone on the short bus anymore.
DangerMouse @ Dec 29th 2008 10:59PM
WHERE IS IT?!?!
Lasse @ Dec 30th 2008 1:42AM
No one cares!
ChomskyKnows @ Dec 30th 2008 4:15AM
i love the parenthetical phrase in the gallery: Duke Nukem Forever "(yes, really)"
rodjoh @ Dec 30th 2008 2:09PM
Seriously, its been a decade pretty much. It better be good.
cne9979 @ Dec 30th 2008 3:44PM
There you are sire, you have been gone for so long we converted to socialism then democracy and now we follow the holy commandments of the hypnotoad.
Nowstopit @ Dec 30th 2008 5:04PM
Sssshhhhh! Cheese it! *Duke walks by*
karmaghost @ Dec 31st 2008 7:57PM
Duke Nukem Forever is a hoax. It does not exist.
