Telltale Games

MusicallyInspired · 09/07/2010, 10:34 am

The game was made 90% by 3D Realms then Triptych Games finished off the rest of it (who were all ex-3DR employees from the layoff last year). Then the game was polished and ported to 360 and PS3 by Gearbox with help (again) from Triptych Games. A lot of ex 3DR employees also work at Gearbox now. But Gearbox didn't do basically anything to DNF. They're just getting it out the door.

Also, Gearbox was sold the Duke Nukem franchise rights.

Haha, I crack my self up.

Oh-ho! Is funny because "forever" is in game's name! Is implying that game title was prophetic!

Oh come on guys, everybody knows there's no such thing as Duke Nukem Forever. It's all an elaborate hoax. Get over it already!

Guys its real, can you just accept it? And is there any chance for this being made for the Wii?

That's sad they lost the Duke Nukem franchies.

I think because it was sold because the majority of 3D realms or what was worked there so they were like, here we beleive you can make this happen.
So the rights were sold to them.

2k never owned the rights, 3D realms owned it.

I know that, but it's still sad to see 3DR lose their child IP. I wonder how this'll affect the DS ones.

It is, but now the game has a chance to be released and for us to enjoy it as well.

I don't think it will affect the DS and PSP Trilogy, in fact I didn't know they were still being released.

Elvenmonk · 09/07/2010, 07:25 pm

It had a chance to be released before hand, it's just selling their IP off is saddening. I wonder if 3DR is going to stay active or not.

3D Realms is now Defunct.

Elvenmonk · 09/07/2010, 07:53 pm

Wiki doesn't say anything about them being Defunct. I know they switched back to their Apogee name.

Damn it! I just remembered like a half a dozen similar things I've said about this game over the years to friends. Looks like I need to avoid my friends for....the rest of my life. O_O

someone has to stop them ruining the best joke among the game community ever!

Elvenmonk · 09/08/2010, 03:12 pm
