After what....10 years Duke is finally returning.
Gearbox (Borderlands fame) has taken up the mantle and will be releasing the game at long last in 2011.
Lets just hope that the hype and wait is worth it, think it will be as Gearbox know what they are doing when it comes to shooters with the overwhelming success of Borderlands, one of my all time favourite games!!

Bit out of the blue, isn't it? I was under the impression that it was dead as a dodo...
Yeah, Gearbox were going to be doing some side scroller shooters in the Duke universe, this though is good news. A decent developer working on something that the masses want.
I'll believe it when I have it sat infront of me...
DNF has been at the stages of "it'll be out next year" for... Well... Forever actually...

Oh really? ive been waiting for thisi hope it doesnt fall mind!
It's in bad taste to pull April Fool's pranks when its not even April !
A part of me hopes they are just issuing press releases and will continue to delay the release indefinitely without really spending any time or money on it. I kind of hope the vapourware nature of this will continue for a good few years yet
when i read this a couple of days ago that gearbox were finishing it i was overjoyed, been waiting for this half my life almost lol!!!!! Im glad its gearbox fdoing it as they should be able to do it to a very high standard, but lets hope it actually makes it!.
Let's hope the game is actually good when and if it's released!
wow that is impressive, keeping a reserve that long! lol
Lol..looks like it belongs in Fallout 3 to me.

I still don't think it'll get finished, it'll be cancelled yet again.
I would have preferred Epic or Valve to finish it off myself as much as I love Borderlands, its just that I'm still embittered by that shockingly bad port of Halo on the PC that had the Co-op amputated that they were responsible for.when i read this a couple of days ago that gearbox were finishing it i was overjoyed
As for the game, I'd rather it didn't come out now as I'm pretty sure that it will not live up to this decade long hypefest, even the much revered Half-Life 2 couldn't live up to the expections set by the leak and subsequent delays.
I hope I'm wrong, but, we're probably all going to be disappointed if it does come out.

13 years so far. DNF was announced in April 1997.
