Hell Hath Frozen Over... Could it be true? A Duke Nukem Forever teaser from 3DRealms?
December 19th 2007, 16:15 CET by OmegaFoRCe

Long long ago, in a Crap far, far away, there were Crappers making fun of 3DRealms and their seemingly unending development cycle of Duke Nukem Forever. Could the legends of a real video game actually be true?

And behold - the word of legend: http://forums.3drealms.com/vb/showthread.php?t=29639

Last Saturday we had our annual company Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual but it featured one special surprise. It turns out that several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video for those at the party. They created a short teaser for Duke Nukem Forever.
After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, here is a screen shot taken from the teaser.

Thank you for being fans of the game and for your continued patience.

I'd like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John).

Anyway, Charlie, pull up a chair and hang out for a while.

There is a lot of truth in the story, just not the important bits. :) I used the true parts to add some grounding to the more fancy free parts.

And yeah, been out of the Duke world personally for about a year and a half now. About 1/3rd of the 2006 era Duke team landed at Gearbox on the Aliens FPS project. It's very very strange to see DNF stuff as an outsider now. I have to admit I'm a bit disappointed they didn't just wait until they could do a video that would finally put the 2001 to bed. As it is, I still watch the 2001 video for my hopes and dreams of what I want out of DNF. I was expecting them to do a blow the doors off the barn thing, where weeks later people are still stammering around going "I still can't believe it was just that awesome", but this felt more like a firecracker and less like some napalm.

I love how that guy commented your story about the dangers of litigation and how you should take it down immediately.

So my replacement RB guitar actually did ship already and should arrive tomorrow.  No free game for me.  Sniff.

So, you got threatened by a chair leg and signed some super-secret-NDA contract, but it wasn't Tim Sweeney who knocked you out, but George Broussard, right? I knew it. So it is a secret global conspiracy of game developers that control society!

I'm not sure that's possible anymore, even if they come up with something that really is genuinely barn door explosive then it still won't get a fair shake.  At this point the DNF saga is entirely separate from any game that might once have been involved, the story is the story and nobody cares about the game.  If I was Scott or George what I'd do is a) pull the plug, b) write a tell-all bestseller and c) make games.

Of more interest however, if you're at Gearbox, is Borderlands.  I can't forgive them for Blue Shift, the Halo port or for giving Foodbunny cancer, but damn if that game doesn't look mighty fine.  At least, it does in my head.

Blue Shift was just fine. Especially the last part with the half-concealed proto-teleporterish thingie. Old, decrepit technology being used in lieu of contemporary science always wins. Actually, that is what had saved T3 of all things for me.

You know what, LOVE Blue Shift. $0 for an eight hour Half-Life game with not-overdose-of-Xen? I was so pleased, and still am, and I want to know who made that classic scenarios where marines fought aliens and you got to watch and throw moles and grenades on them.

Heh. That's nothing, mate. Both BlackSite and Soldier of Fortune: Payback retail at twice that price and are about half as long.

And they're shit.

Dum -
What I've seen of Borderlands looks good enough that I want to know more. The weapon generation system was pretty staggering, the driving looked a blast and you only need to say "open world action RPG" to me and I'm already salivating.

It was a Randy "Most Enthusiastic Man on Earth" Pitchford demonstration I witnessed, however. Seems like a lovely guy, but I always get the feeling that the show of supposedly ad libbed fratboy whooping is actually expertly crafted. It trips some kind of paranoia switch in me that makes me wonder just how accurate a picture of the game you get from his presentations, particularly since it's hard not to be buoyed along by his cheeriness. I don't know if there are videos of him double-teaming with Brothers in Arms military advisor, Col John Antal, but it's worth a google. The pair of them are mad as a bag of knees. In one viewing of Brothers I was at, there was a minor glitch - a rocket clipped through an enemy without exploding. Some journalist in the front row made the mistake of smirking. You don't smirk at Col Antal! Antal's loomed above him, barking, "You ever fired a rocket launcher, son? No? Well, I have - and sometimes you miss!"

The NSA 0wnz popular firewalls and 'secure' email services

CRYPTOME reports that the US National Security Agency (NSA) has remote administrative access to several of the most popular Windows PC firewalls, and that it has also taken control of a number of supposedly "secure " email services within the past few months.

It writes that the personal computer firewall software products from MacAfee, Symantec and Zone Alarm all "...facilitate Microsoft's NSA-controlled remote admin access via IP/TCP ports 1024 through 1030... without security flag."
