Seems that we finally have an offical word that the game that wouldn't die has finally passed on. RIP old friend.


September 30, 2005 - 3D Realms updated its official FAQ which includes a section called [2.5] Cancelled Projects. Among the games listed is Duke Nukem Forever.

Frequently, projects that get started never get finished. This can happen for a number of reasons. Legal problems is one common cause; slow progress and little promise is another. What follows is a list of projects that, for one reason or another, never saw the light of day. Dates are approximations of the time each game spent under development at Apogee.

Please do not contact Apogee for information about these games. Little or no information remains about what was done, and in some cases, Apogee doesn't even have copies of them anymore in their archives.

Look what's there:

Duke Nukem Forever

I'd um, contact them about it, but they ask not to.

Most likely just an error on their part, but really, this thing will never die.

[Thief Silver]

I concur, this must just be a typo or an assumption.

[EMAGDNIM]

[Sl1p]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[piku]

It isn't cancelled.

[Sl1p]

It isn't cancelled.

YEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

[Rumpy]

Yeah, they replied to a question thread a few days ago and said it's still being worked on.

Lol, either way the project is a joke.

[Tain]

I concur with Sl1p's amusing large text and images.

You'd better, or else it'll swallow you whole.
