Duke Nukem Forever release date announced

[avrame]

Haha, wow, I signed up for the beta a ways back, and got an email today:

Duke Nukem Forever is set to release in North America on May 3, 2011, internationally May 6, 2011.

Anyone saw that coming?

This is surreal.

I still don't believe it's real.

I would still claim vaporware, but Gearbox Software (contributers to Half Life, and developers for Borderlands) have a pretty decent track record so far.

They just sent the trailer to my email (and to everyone who registered for beta access).

It's seriously amazing:

I'm very glad to see that Gearbox is going to stay faithful to what was set down in Duke Nukem 3D. The console releases I'm assuming will maintain the mosaic to keep their M rating, but I wouldn't be shocked to see the PC version lets you play uncensored.

I really hope they make jokes about the delay throughout. Im not a big Duke Nukem 3d fan (I liked the platformers more) but this is an icon. And, as it was said, Gearbox is quality.

[Anayo]

I'm a big fan of Duke 3D (and the obscure spinoff "Low Wang: Shadow Warrior" too!), so I'm excited about this. It's not economical to buy stuff on launch, but I'll watch the reviews and maybe get it later in the year.

[KDub]

Looks pretty cool.

But I'll still believe it only when I see it on a shelf. Not that I don't believe in Gearbox...It is hard to get past that much bad mojo is all.

[Pabstblueribbon]

I'll have this on launch. I've been waiting for this too long to wait anymore.

[saturnfan]

Can't wait, I am getting this game even if it is a flop. Everyone should just buy it out of principle.
