So ends the biggest fiasco in Computer Gaming history.
I am sure lots of horror stories will emerge about this project. If nothing else, it will be a textbook example of how NOT to develop a game.,
I know all the details of the fiasco are not out, but it is hard to avoid putting a healthy share of the blame on GB. It happened on his watch.
And I am very skeptical that it was "nearly completed". It has been "Nearly Completed" for how many years now???????
Some other company can buy the rights to the game, since Take 2 has stated they will not be funding it (and who can blame them?) but ,let's face it, a whole generation of gamers has grown up who only know Duke Nukem by name and by the endless jokes about DNF, and it can be argued that he only has some nostalgia value left. Because of that, and the whole wretched history of the game..it has been the laughing stock of not just the gaming industry but the computer industry as a whole...I doubt any major company is going to be anxious to pick up the game.
As The Dukester would say, "This Really Sucks".
