Duke Nukem Forever, the mere mention of it’s name can send FPS fan boys into fits of either rage or joy. Fourteen years this game has been in development, FOURTEEN YEARS! It has gone through four different development teams, three different engine builds and three generations of console progression. Any other game would have been cancelled years ago, but somehow Duke Nukem Forever just wouldn’t die. Then to the shock of an entire industry Gearbox Software at last years PAX Prime announced that they had purchased the Duke Nukem intellectual property, and that Forever would be released May 3, 2011. Then last week they reported it was going to be delayed yet again, now coming out June 14, 2011. So what’s another five weeks after fourteen years?
