Duke Nukem Forever 90% Complete

Duke Nukem Forever 90% Complete

It was recently stated by George Broussad of 3D Realms, developers of Duke Nukem Forever, that the game is now 90% complete. The emphasis is on “forever” here, because long time gamers and fans of the series will remember it being announced way back in April of 1997, ultimately meaning that the game has been development for a shocking 12 years – and counting. Even worse, is that over the years there have been hardly any details given on this title. We only have a few screenshots, the revelation of it being a multi-platform game and many delays to go on. There is also the exciting fact that longtime voice actor for Duke Nukem, Jon St. John, will make a return to do his job and the music composers, Jeremy and Julian Soule, will also be making a comeback to add their music contributions. As a final fact, again according to Broussad, with the game being 90% finished, there are only 71 tasks left to complete. It sounds like a heck of a lot, but keep in mind that originally Duke Nukem Forever had 800-900 tasks to tackle during development.

To conclude, with the game being 90% complete, could the rumours possibly be true and will Duke Nukem Forever finally see a release this year? Only time will tell, but be sure to check eGamer in the near future for any updates regarding this title. If it doesn’t come out this year, or at least get a confirmed release date, then “forever” it may definitely be.

    Yes yes yes yes yes yes! Duke Nukem along with Doom were the two best FPS games I played when I was smaller. This game is legend and I hope it will be as good as the last one

  • Tody

    Good is an understatement :D If this game isn’t the best thing since sliced bread, after making everyone wait 12 years, then there’s going to be serious outrage :P

  • Pete

    Online Nukem would be awesome!

  • EX_Machina

    If this game isn’t the greatest addition to the development of humanity as a whole in the last century or so then 3D realms better get ready for pain :O

    i’ve never played duke nukem but i heard they’re good and if it has taken them 12 years to make this one it has to be the greatest game of all time or else some heads will be rolling, but threats aside i’m looking forward to this game.
