The game that became the laughing stock and running joke for development hell, finally has a release date set after 14 years of waiting. Duke Nukem Forever will FINALLY be released on May 3rd, 2011 in the United States. It will then be released everywhere else on May 6th.
This game made the #14 spot on my 15 Most Anticipated Games for a reason. Gearbox shocked everyone at PAX 2010 by revealing that not only was the game ready for release but also had a playable demo. At the time they gave this news, not only did everyone think that it was far from being ready, we all thought it was dead after 3D Realms essentially dropped development.
It's so great to see that this game finally has a release date. I'm not the biggest FPS fan but I still love a good FPS and I can't wait to see what Gearbox did with the game. Now it's time to release some trailers for those who weren't at PAX and those who probably won't get a chance at the beta. Come on Gearbox, you've got less 5 months to do so.
Now in celebration, here's a YouTube video of all of his quotes from Duke Nukem 3D.
HAIL TO THE KING BABY! Now if we could just get Half-Life 2: Episode 3 out.
