Buy Duke Nukem 4 Ever license, and finish it. Oh wait, I prefer no Duke at all than a subpar one. Looking at Wolfenstein, I don't want a DN 4 Ever from id Software after all.
 
when I saw the trailer of Prey I thought to my self that I am not into old indian myths and spells but played it for... I didn't have anything else to play at that specific time and am glad I did...

was pretty good fps game... I admit that I enjoyed it
 
Ok, maybe nobody cares about 3D Realms, but plenty of people want a sequel to DN3D.

I think the problem with DNF is the IP holder has a "Howard Hughes" or "Rain Man" style tick, with obsessive and unachievable perfection standards. Everytime the game engine or some other aspect gets so far, another game comes out with a better engine and they must just start again.

The "When It's Ready" mantra is not just wearing thin, it's worn through. Decide on an engine, get the game out, sell lots of copies and start work on another sequel. In the time they have spent trying to release the best game possible they could have released 4 or 5 sequels. The "Duke" image is strong enough to support an almost limitless franchise, but you have to have the game out there in the first place to be a franchise.
 
Same here, I played Prey , and was sometimes surprised. You have got to admit the guys over at 2k studios and raven are creative.

Hope something new will come out soon.

I don't recall the game being that long, I'd hate to be that busy.
 
[citation][nom]demonhorde665[/nom]have you been living under a rock DNF IS NOT usign an ID engine , geeze , chrst it's using a modfied UT based engine whcih is NOT ID , prey sued teh doom3 engine but DNF is UT all teh way and UT is Epic's engine not ID's geeze lol get the facts strait[/citation]

Just to clarify, DNF isn't using the UT engine, because the whole project is shelved and the game hasn't been released. Maybe some of one of the many attempts to develop it were started on UT but it hasn't gone any further. Maybe next time it exits development hell and makes a concerted effort it will be on yet another engine. But until the game is released it isn't confirmed with anything.
