Duke Nukem developer goes bust


Work started on the title back in 1997
Veteran games developer 3D Realms has closed down because of a lack of funds.
Founded in 1987, the firm popularised the concept of shareware gaming and published the seminal Duke Nukem and Wolfenstein 3D first-person shooters.
The company was working on a follow-up title, Duke Nukem Forever, which after being in development for 12 years has become the object of industry derision.

So... What happens to what they were working on? Are they going to throw it away? Or hand it off to some better more well equipped developer that'll actually finish it?

If someone wants to create a Duke Nukem Forever, they're definitely better off starting from scratch. 12 years in development & a trailer says we've only done 5% is not something I'd like to begin working on.

Why do I get the feeling Duke Nuke'm Forever was a money-grabbing con job?

*Reddit does have some comments down the list with some language*

Can't always take comments from newsboards as 100% real, but this guy seams legit.
