at n4g. Duke Nukem Forever, X360 exclusive, just wait.

microsoft had enough money to buy yahoo.  i dont think they have to sell bonds to buyy a company that just went out of business

If the big M has gotten Duke exclusive on his system, then Master Cheif is gonna be SERIOUSLY pissed. I wonder who will be considered the bigger mascot for the Xbox eventually?

BTW, if Microsoft has the legendary DNF as a console exclusive, if they shove enough money into making Duke big again, and since he already has one helluva rep, Duke Nukem will come back many times bigger and better then ever before.

For the sake of Duke Nukem, please let Microsoft have bought 3D Realms...as long as they make the game as big as it should be, anyway(Like, Halo or Gears sized marketing. Heck, why stop there? Its Duke Nukem, hes already a gaming cultural icon. Market it even bigger!)

Ahhh, Duke 3D was such a fun game...bring back those days for the new age please!

We will have to wait and see.

I hope this soap opera ends at E3

Well yeah, either he'll be confirmed as being alive or dead.

But either way, Duke deserves to go out as a gaming icon should if neccesary, unlike Sonic's slow, painful and undignified death.

i could not see microsoft developing a very mature game

Duke Nukem Forever would of turned out just like Prey and Too Human games that took more than 10 years to release and end up being mediocre games that noone really cared much for when they finally release.
Duke Nukem Forever is Duke Nukem Never.

am i the only one who doesnt like duke nukem?

Can't someone else just make Nuke Dukem already?
