The number of puns you can have on the game's title alone...
"The Making of Duke Nukem... Forever." "Duke Nukem Forever in the works!" "The fans are waiting for Duke Nukem Forever." etc... |

Ofcourse, you realize, this will be Daikatana on the second power, right?

With an almost 10 year development cycle, I can't see how this game can work. If they based it on top end hardware from even 2 years ago it would be hopelessly out of date when released.
Developers today are rushing their half completed, should-be-beta products to store shelves just so that the graphics are cutting edge for a week and a half before the next GFX card is introduced with all new features. Take KOTOR2. The potential for a truly great game, but much of the content had to be cut to get it shipped. Had they waited any longer, the graphics would be considered sub-par by their target demographic who, for the most part, buy based on looks. The bottem line: Daikatana will be an A-list titled compared to this.

Fear of that is probably what's holding it back all these years Zebodog...they've changed engines every few years, including a change that probably amounts to a full data scrap a year ago.
For me, best case scenario: it's still a Duke Nukem game and I won't buy it lol. I tend to not buy shooters where you regularly take more than one shotgun blast and continue to function unless there's a good reason. |

Indeed, I am hopefull that it will do well, it has certainl made a name for itself, but if the game is unfinished..... They will NEVER hear the end of it.

There's little chance they'll end up with a viable product... too much time. Daikatana part two as noted earlier.
