Behold! Duke Nukem Forever Comes

Jarod | February 2, 2006

Slashdot | Duke Nukem Forever in Production

Yeeeah, yo momma it is. DNF isn’t Vaporware because:

- It was worth waiting 7 years for Daikatana
- Clinton did not have sex
- Iraq had WMD
- One Night In Paris accidently leaked on the ‘net
- It’s a good idea to let Uwe Boll make more games from movies
- Showgirls and Ghosts Of Mars did not totally suck
- Bielefeld really does exist
- 640k ought to be enough for everyone
- Britney has never been surgically enhanced
- Earth is flat

Add your own “because’s” in the comments!

SUPPLMENTAL: It’s back in the list! Winner of Vaporware 2005

    Hehe yeah, wikipedia is quite right and even mentions DNF AND Daikatana. I’ve been a subscriber of a german PC-games magazine for years and I remember quite well all the ‘previews’ from 1997 ;)

    wiki tiki…

    Interesting post. I came across this blog by accident, but it was a good accident. I have now bookmarked your blog for future use. Best wishes. Natalie Gulbis….

    Hey Natalie, that makes you the first ever “outside” visitor/reader, congratulations! Not only are you the first, but still the only one, that makes you even more special.

    It’s really too bad that you’re (most probably) just “social network spamming” to get that link to your page – which I removed, sorry – but that makes it even more interesting. ’cause it’s really not worth spamming this blog … since nobody reads it in the first place. An endless paradox.

    If you happen to be a real person, please don’t feel too bad, you can always go on posting. Y’know, maybe there really ARE sexy women who like to read geek stuff … in that case I would like to announce my unreserved apologies.
