Duke Nukem Forever to Arrive December?

Posted by Zonk on from the pigs-fly dept.

Muddie writes "According to an article at The Inquirer, Duke Nukem Forever has a release date set at Amazon.Com UK for December 2, 2005. According to the article: 'We don't believe that Amazon plans to trick its customers - it's not its style and the customers can sue if it fails. The game is listed as a 24.99 title and we are surely thrilled if this all comes true.' Could it be true, or is the sky just falling again?" Big grain of salt with this one.

      What would be even funnier is if you haven't had any milk in the first place, but your body decided to produce some as a subtle sign of just how funny this really is, even though it goes against everything in science.

      I'm afraid it's 5 seals remaining. Don't forget that Slashdot fixed it's HTML.

    It says that you will need either a Commodore Amiga or an Atari ST to play the game. Has it really been that long since they started working on it?
