Duke Nukem Forever Was To Go Gold Today
Jason Bergman, former producer of Duke Nukem Forever via Take-Two subsidiary 2K Games, posted on his Twitter today:
MOMENT OF SILENCE PLEASE: by the 3DR/TTWO development schedule, April 1st, 2010 was supposed to be the day Duke Nukem Forever went gold.
Berman also stated that the planned release date was "totally intentional. It was going to be hilarious."
Thanks to Para-noir for the heads up--we love you too.
Update @ 2:40 PST: When asked, "Was 3D Realms really that close to going gold with Duke Nukem Forever?" -- Bergman replies with confidence that 3D Realms would have met their April deadline if Take 2 hadn't sued them:
I wholeheartedly believe that had things gone differently, they would have made that date.
Of course, not everyone may agree with that statement, granted the game's former lead developer, George Broussard, has been said to be an alleged failure (see paragraph next to Pharaoh's Tomb image).
