A New Duke Nukem? Seriously? Surely I must be dreaming..

 

1997. Slick Willy started his 2nd term as el Presidente. NASA's Pathfinder lands on Mars. Hale Bopp came close to Earth. Steve Jobs returns to Apple. Cameron's Titanic defiles the big screen. Skynet was activated removing human decisions from strategic defense. 

But - all I wanted was my Duke Nukem Forever, in all its Quake II Engine goodness, but I was denied. After gushing over Mr. Nukem 3D the year prior, my entire year was ruined. 

Finally, the day has come where it looks like it may become reality. Duke Nukem has become a punchline for projects that have been eternally delayed. But Randy Pitchford, who once worked on Duke Nukem 3D, is the founder of Gearbox Software. Coincidentally, Gearbox is now heading up the project of bringing the punchline to a reality. I won't lie. With the amount of concepts and brain sweat dedicated to this project, it will be the BEST game EVAR!!!!one!!!eleventy!one!!! 

Or it will suck. Only time will tell - or will it?? 2K is live streaming folks playing the game at PAX - check it out while you can! There's also a new website http://dukenukem.com. Either way, it's GOT to be better than VUVUZELA HERO! (video after the break)
