Duke Nukem Forever - teh Vaporware?

[Moddy]

Some quotes I stole from another board. I thought they were funny as hell.

"We're confident that DNF will be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, game of 1998. And this confidence is not misplaced." - Scott Miller, 1997
"Duke Nukem Forever is a 1999 game and we think that timeframe matches very well with what we have planned for the game." - George Broussard, 1998
"Trust us, Duke Nukem Forever will rock when it comes out next year." - Joe Siegler, 1999
"When it's done in 2001." - 2000 Christmas card
"DNF will come out before Unreal 2." - George Broussard, 2001
"If DNF is not out in 2001, something's very wrong." - George Broussard, 2001
"DNF will come out before Doom 3." - George Broussard, 2002

BWAHAHHAHAHHAHAA!!!! That's great

:D

Edit: Looks like they are not even guessing anymore!

"Once we begin taking pre-orders, believe us, you'll know about it."

"The release date of this game is 'When it's done'. Anything else, and we mean anything else is someone's speculation. There is no date. We don't know any date. If you have a friend who claims they have 'inside info', or there's some game news site, or some computer store at the mall who claims they know - they do not. They are making it up. There is no date. Period."

These guys are almost as bad as weathermen on TV. Wouldn't it be nice that we could be wrong over 70% of the time and still have a job the next day? :hittard:

its a rotten shame. DUke Nukem was my favorite game of all time. I had sooooooooooooooooo much fun, especially with Modem to Modem play.

Why is is sooooooooooooooooo hard to just sell the fucking code and let someone else develope it or just say " We are not working on it, it's dead"
