*listens to heartbeat-ometer flatline*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

The TRUE cost that the financial crisis brings...

Let us consider these twelve years of development. The mapping of the human genome took less time, you may recall. Some unfortunate people will inevitably have been born and died in this time. Indeed, there have been countries founded after production started and collapsing before it was pronounced dead. And not just whatever-Czech-Republic-called-itself-last-week. I've been waiting for this game to come out for longer than I've had access to (or possibly knowledge of) the Internet to tell people that I'm waiting for the game to come out. If you Google "When It's Done", it is the first thing the results will show.

This has been the longest-running Internet joke ever*, and that was a shitty punchline.

Good night, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

*One of the longest running jokes ever, but beaten out by existence itself, and various religions.

1997 to 2009 equals 12 in my universe.

Looks like Take-Two killed another game.

Notice, they retain the rights now that 3D studios is dead.

I wonder who holds the real IP.

Duke Nukem came out way before that. I personally first played a Duke Nukem game more than when I was 13, about 17 years ago. The first Duke Nukem game came out in 1991. They just have been working on the most recent one for 12 years.
