Duke Nukem Forever still coming

It's been seen up and running.

More than four hundred years after the game was first announced, it's been confirmed that Duke Nukem Forever is still in development over at 3D Realms.

That's according to Shacknews, which recently got to see the game up and running.

Apparently they were shown "several different DNF gameplay scenarios, mechanics and environments" during a half-hour demo.

"We actually got to see the truth of Duke curator George Broussard's many past claims including environmental puzzles and interactivity, a host of finished weapons, the existence of an in-game forklift, and plenty of heads and arms being blown off," the Shacknews article reads.

"We both confidently agree that after seeing this demonstration, Duke Nukem Forever is looking great, and will easily stand apart from the crowd in both visual and gameplay styles."
