Today at PAX Prime, 2K Games and Gearbox Software unveiled Duke Nukem Forever. The notoriously delayed first-person shooter is definitely set for a 2011 release, for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. Duke Nukem Forever is even already playable in demo form at the Penny Arcade Expo (2K Games Booth #3417, if you happen to be there). See some fan reactions at PAX Prime, here from a previous recording by 2K Games.
“Hail to the king, baby! It’s unbelievable, it kicks ass and it’s totally going to happen!” said Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software, “Gearbox has enabled die-hard key Duke Nukem franchise builders and skilled veteran game makers to stand together and deliver. All gamers deserve a happy ending and after all of us gamers feeling the full range of emotions about Duke Nukem Forever, I am thrilled to be in a position with the trust, power and means to make it happen. Am I crazy? Balls of steel, baby, balls of steel!”
