The way I see it is Take 2 are demanding the software that is owed to them. 2 possible reasons exist:

1: To use the source code as evidence of how little work was actually completed during the game's 12 year development cycle.

2: To obtain the work that's already been done and assign a development studio to the game that will actually complete the project in a timely manner.

...for their case against 3dRealms.

3DRealms, stop being jerks and just give the code and give the game a chance to be finished instead if drowning it with you.

Didn't George Brussard say that he always kept the game on a solid state hard drive that he carries with himself at all times? I honestly believe that he destroyed it from any regular PC and the only copy left is with him. I say lets jump him and get that hard drive and play the game that Jesus himself has touched.

I wouldnt buy this game at this point if it turned out to be the best game EVER.

Id like to take a big steamy pile of poo on the source code then recycle it, do it again, then proceed to burn it with fire just to make sure we have to never hear about this pathetic game again. The first one wasnt even that good.

3DRealms is garbage. Press agree.

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

Snookies121305d ago

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g1305d ago

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

porkChop1347d ago

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

ZycoFox1347d ago

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot1347d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

ZycoFox1347d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel1347d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
