It's been a while since the Internet had its semi-regular Duke Nukem Forever mention, so let's have another. 3D Realms boss George Broussard is happy to let the world know that things are coming together for the game, and that the game has several hours of gameplay to show for ten years of development.
"It's going really well," states Broussard. "There are several hours of fairly polished game to play. We're actively testing parts of the game and getting feedback from play testers and things are coming together."
Wow, several hours -- and that's WHOLE hours as well, I'm willing to bet! "It's fun, it's in focus, we know what bits are fun and which are not, and it's just a matter of time now," continues the 3D Realms honcho. "I've probably never been as happy or excited about the game as I am these days."
That's an awesome coincidence, Mr. Broussard. I've probably never been happy or excited about the game either.

You are a videogame company. Do not act as though creating playable builds of your product is worthy of celebration. We do not give high fives to McDonald's employees for creating half a big mac. No, not even if that McDonald's employee is Duke Nukem.
That is all.

It's been so fucking long, no matter how shitty or great the game is, I'm fucking buying it, and I'll be happy to do so.
Bravo.
Actually, I'd give a high-five to Duke Nukem if he made me half a Big Mac....
Geez, I could have finished this game years ago on my own
do it
I wasnt expecting any other comment that wasnt the ship date.
God do I want this game to be good...
HL2 was only 7 hours long at a stretch, what are they waiting for!
Make me a play tester. I have a capable PC, and I promise not to leak it.
Sincerely, Me.
