Possible Gearbox Duke Nukem Forever announcement at PAX

[Galvanise_]

Not surprising at all. Rumours of this have been going around for ages.

Anyways, from George Broussard's twitter:



Anyways, the rumour was that it was for PC and 360.

Edit: Its happening.

PAX is the end of the world...

Serious note: That sucks that there is no PS3 release. Though all the latest videos for it have made my interest go into the negatives.

There might be seeing as though Gearbox have done MP games, but the original rumour was that it was for PC and 360 only.

I remain highly skeptical this will materialize.

This game should never get made. How boring would it be if we couldn't make duke nuken forever jokes. Bad times.

Well Broussard did say on a podcast a while back that 'Duke Nukem Forever will be released when pigs fly' and now we have some flying pigs with Duke's glasses on. I think the game won't be worth the wait, but it'll be interesting to see it come out.

If it does the first thing that will come to mind is Too Human...

Gearbox?
Why Gearbox?
I thought Valve was doing it?
Considering the voice of Duke has been working at Valve.

I know all the Defanse Of Ancients bull****, but I know a cover up when I see it.

All of the evidence thus far looks to a Gearbox/2K games partnership for the game. Valve might be involved at some point, I guess.

I don't think that Valve could save this game either.

yeh and im the king of england. Isnt gonna happen. Why do you think they call it forever.

I'd wait till official announcement before saying what console its on being fact its been advertised in the trailers for pc,ps3 and 360 so far so wouldnt be suprised if theres a ps3 version if this game ever materilizes of course the day this game releases the internet would die thus causing the end of the world.

Duke's voice actor is also in attendance at PAX but has said he won't be at the 2K panel.

The game is currently expected to ship in 2010 although given it’s history Pitchford is understandably reluctant to be more specific. “We’re in the polishing phase now. This is a game where we can not make a promise we can not fulfill,” he says. “We need to get past the shock and awe and then we can go to all the retailers and first parties and work out a launch plan.”

I'm not expecting it this year.

[darky89]

Is anything interesting going to happen or are we just going to talk to idiots.... (talking about the stream)

[edit] We're in.

[Galvanise_]

Its on PC, PS3 and 360.

First I was like ""
But then regenerating health and cover system ""

Man a earthquake in Christchurch and Duke Nukem gets announced at the same time. 2 of the more improbable things to ever happen.
