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).

I'd disagree with that. But even if you don't, you have to agree that it was a disappointment.

What the shit? That is horrible! Yeah yeah screen shots ain't everything, so we'll wait and see.

That trailer really had some outright shit though, the god awful cheesy one liner for one. The action in places looked kinda SiN/f.e.a.r.-esque, but maybe 3D Realms can do a proper job instead of those pieces of garbage.


I still have hopes it'll be cool (I have my reasons), but I'll concede that my hope isn't really anchored in reality at this point. Best of luck to the 3DR guys heh.

gaggle voices his laughable "opinions" once again. Just be glad you aren't him.

:Episodes, yes, of course. Thinking Fear is a good game is kinda wrong, but it's obviously nowhere near as bad as SiN. Just kinda samey and warehousy, and it happened to pop to mind as I was writing the post.

Ain't gonna happen, ever. Media blitz = pathetic attempt to revive lost reputation. I remember clear back when, when the first "supposed" picture of this game was released in a PC game mag. It was a jeep that looked high-centered, I think...I believed it then. This is all complete bullshit, because Broussard spent all their company funds at Carl's Jr.

Well shit. The trailer was rather craptastic. I guess that's what happens when "several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video".

I'm all for generating hype, but come on guys. Don't release something that looks like ass - keep it in house until there is something that properly reflects the game that you are still apparently working on. That is, unless this teaser is a true reflection of a game that has been in development for over 10 years. If that is the case, well, good luck. You're going to need it.

Watching that old 2001 preview I first thought "Man that looks crappy", then thought that it reminded me of  those old Bethesda Terminator games.  Which I thought were amazing at the time.  I guess graphics do matter.

I saw 2001 when it was first released, and it was incredible. It introduced me to the abstract, and the metaphysical. But a stupid, slovenly, lazy-assed pack of 3Drealms liars won't even touch that.

Gotta love the idea of someone working late nights so they can get that trailer out on the market SUPER FAST...after 10 years. Guys, you can take a little longer if it means the trailer will look better. At this point, no one's going to care if you spent an extra weekend or two (or 50) on it.

You know what's funny, they stress in that trailer an image of a totally ripped, muscular Duke, but if the game is done right, you should never see that model at all (cutscenes, anybody?).
#69 by Dumdeedum

The model was a little bit disturbing to be honest, it makes it look like Duke has varicose veins or blood pressure issues or something.  Although I guess it isn't too unthinkable given what his age must be by now.

Of course the rather scatological catchphrase was more disturbing, but the less said about that the better.

I thought I caught a glimpse of some dose with steroids or something. He looked terrible.

Anyway... what was the demographics of DN fanbois back when DN3D was popular? Since I was an early teenager, most fans I've seen were teenagers (I was more into Quake demo). If they were really the majority of DN-lovers, they're probably mostly over 25. Ten years back, oneliners about laying bricks and cutscenes picturing peeing on decapitated aliens were funny to them. But now? I agree with the idea they could have semi-successful game if they'd make fun of themselves and repeated jokes on topic of "it's done when it's done" and "I'm working on it" all over again.

All they have to do to gain fame among the current teenage generation is put boobies in the game. Worked for DN3D, where most of the b00b13z were even in teh shareware version.

I think assemblerer is overestimating the maturity of the 25-30 demographic.

I don't know why they haven't just taken their Daikatana medicine and released the fucking thing, "finished" or not.  It's like the world's largest windmill at this point.

Its a teaser trailer for internal use that they decided to put out on the web.

'it looks awful', uh huh, yeah that pre render of duke working out isnt great, the snippets of action are overly brief and hard to make out.

Could it be a fun game, quite possibly.



With WOW offline for maintenance on tuesday and being unable to sleep, I fired up TF2 for the first time.

After installing a 8800GT and 2 quiet 120mm fans (the pc is now nearly silent)

Sweet merciful jesus thats a lot of fun, played medic 90% of the time (yeah on 2Forts), had a total blast, its like Valve concentrated awesome into neutrino sized doses then injected it directly into my frontal lobe.

and like a little crack monkey I was right back at wow when it came back up, but was up early the next morning to get some TF2 in

I didn't think the teaser was so bad.  If it's something that some of the crew put together for fun, then it's not so bad.

If this was a polished fit for promotion trailer, then that would be another story.

Funk.


-- Is that really Charlie?  I thought he was dropping off the 'crap until Duke was finished.
