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.

  1. Amazon dot COM shows NOTHING by RUFFyamahaRYDER · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The link in the article goes to the UK Amazon site. I just checked the amazon.com site and got zero results for "Duke Nukem Forever". I'm raising the BS flag right now!

  2. Its already ported to Source, and will be on Steam by BrookHarty · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Its already ported to the source engine, its suppose to be for sale on steam by end of november. (pre-download)

    The funny thing, they showed old screenshots on the amazon.uk site, the newer ones with anti-aliasing on steam, looks awesome. Funny how nobody thinks the game is coming out, but some developers dropped hints over at http://www.planetduke.com about it being release this year for xmas.

    Also, isnt this the first stream game from a 3rd party developer?

  4. Why Bother by triso · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Why wait for the new game when you can play the classic duke3d on Linux, Windows or Mac. Since the source code was released, many moons ago, there have been updates that use your 3d accelerator, your gigs of RAM and your Internet connection for multi-player matches. There is also a slew of third-party maps and levels available. All free, of course.
