First announced in 1997, Duke Nukem Forever is now smoking an 11 year old cigar with no plans for a release date. Funny thing is, it's taking them 11+ years to produce a single FPS while Spore only took 5-6 and it's all about evolution from single cell stage to space colonization with versions on the iPhone, wii and other platforms. Ker-razy.

I just hope they get Bruce Campbell for the voice acting.

up late for a school night, eh?

Bruce Campbell?

Duke is looking more and more like Bruce Willis!

Anybody know what he just said?

^

Nope. And I used to play the original game back in the day.

Games bore me... kind of odd since that's usually why most people play them.

Further proof that I'm bass ackwards.

@andy: Nope. Isn't it about time to change your colostomy bag?

I have no idea what he said. Don't really care, either.

It's obvious he doesn't know Andy very well, though...

Colostomy bag? Ppppffftthhhppttt!! He'd never wear one of those. He'd just crap himself.

I remember the original duke nukem. never really liked FPS's though... (that is, after the excitement of the original Doom wore off. wasted a few months on that).

He's referring to the cult following that Duke Nukem Forever (DNF) has gathered in the gaming community. There are a few games that seem to turn in to vaporware after they are announced. Frequently the fans are kept hanging ("Oh it's just a delay, it'll be out next year", "no the project hasn't been cancelled") so they get whipped up into a frenzy by a couple preliminary screenshots or graphics boards, only to be forced to wait years for a game that may never emerge. I think DNF is supposed to be one of the worst offenders in this account.

The reference to "spore" is a game that is scheduled for release this year, in which you create an organism and help it evolve and develop a society around it...

Thank God I got my first dirt bike before I started kindergarten. My uncle has a bike shop with a couple hundred bikes and I think my first bike was a Christmas gift from him when I was about 4 years old (a little 50cc Suzuki, LOL). I've had a bike ever since then.

Games vs. going out and getting muddy, racing, or hill climbing...?

Give me the wheels anyday!
