QUOTE (wikipedia)

3D Realms was shut down on May 6, 2009 due to lack of funding. DNF publisher Take-Two Interactive, in response, stated that they still hold the publishing rights for Duke Nukem Forever, but they stated they were not funding the game.

Actually, I think it's a preferable turn of events. Imagine what would've happened if they'd completed the game after what, 15 years, and it wasn't perfect in every regard. They would've been fucking lynched. This way at least, the project died with dignity.

Wow, they wasted all their money making a game that they would never finish. What a fucking suprise. *Keeps on playing Team Fortress 2*

I don't see how it died with dignity. But yes, this is probably preferable.

Don't just ignore Mr. Duck like that, he went to all the trouble of creating a thread for this occasion on our very own game forums.

Duke has finally realized. Reailzed that the life of his friend, bubble gum, came to an end. How he is going to kick ass without gum? All the battles the came through together, all the ailen butts they kicked. Without bubble gun nothing will be the same aga-WHAT? CANCELLED?!

You've got to be kidding me. I really thought they'd get it out the door this time.

If we're speaking in metaphors, they kinda did...

Bugger.

Oh well, then that thread can be full of serious discussion while we 'tard the fuck out of this one.

All I wanna say is that I'm happy and glad this is all over. I am not usually a cruel person, but I just can't help but laugh at...this. So, what is Duke going to do now?

I never gave a fuck about Duke Nukem. 3D Realms seem like a real dull bunch though.
