"Tucked away within this week's Xbox 360 release of Duke Nukem 3D were two new screenshots of 3D Realms' long-in-development sequel Duke Nukem Forever.

Following a series of low-res captures and Motorola KRZR-produced images, Duke4.net has obtained full-resolution captures of the screenshots, viewable below."
Duke Nukem Forever originally began its life as a sidescroller instead of a shooter back in 1996, and that canceled version has just been leaked.
Very cool, but i don't know how real this is... I'll check it out later to find out.
Duke Nukem Forever, the troubled FPS from Gearbox and 3D Realms, has been restored to more traditional 90s shooter thanks to a sweeping “remaster” mod
kinda of a misleading title.
Mod features:
Sprinting removed and faster player movement
Jump height increased
Swim speed is much faster
Player can now hold breath underwater for 45 seconds instead of 15
Weapon rebalance and screen shake when shooting removed
2/4 weapon limit completelly removed
Quicksaves (F5 by default)
Depth of Field removed and new post processing effects
Driving sections are now in first person perspective
yw.
Duke Nukem Forever, the infamous and controversial FPS from 3D Realms, apparently looked much better before launch, as modders discover various cut features
Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.
im amazed that this game is still in development
ITS TIME TO KICK ASS AND CHEW BUBBLE GUM, AND IM ALL OUTTA GUM!!!!!!!!!!!

HOLY F*CK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! cant wait to see the downgraded PS3 port.
Undecided whether I'm impressed or not. Some of it looks great (flying things in image 2) but some of it looks rather meh (the strippers).
Anyone know what engine their using? Looks rather UE3 like.
lets just hope it doesnt turn out to be another too human - forever in development then final product = poo
If it is then I'd say it holds its own quite well.
I was worried that this game would be forever in development and so games and technologies would advance around it leaving it behind.
