Recent update...

In a nutshell one of the head guys @ 3DRealms was interviewed by a regular old news paper and being used to speaking to gaming magazines and being tight lipped and not letting anything slip...

Well he slipped...

It was basically said that Duke will be coming to PC, 360 and PS3 this year...

Another quote in a different interview recently said that all that is happening at the moment is "touch up's" as such... Which means if its only touch up's... Finger crossed they dont decided to scrap the whole thing and start again.

you are right partially though Syfon, Gearbox have bought the IP to the game, and Tryptych Games, which is made up of a bunch of the ex 3DRealms devs is doing most of the final development.

I knew that duke was still alive :D

hopefully George Broussard goes bankrupt too, arrogant, mac using f**kwit.

I remember hearing that 3drealms had cancelled the project due to no more funds... Now I hear they're working on it again. I would love to see it come out next year, but in case anyone has forgotten, a few years ago when the game was supposed to come out, the PC cases were on the shelves displaying that it was soon to be released... it never was...........

So hopefully THIS FREAKIN TIME it's gonna come out. And I wanna see awesome 3d boobs, maximum gore and of course, hear some really REALLY cool new quotes (and old ones too).

SHAKE IT, BABY!!!

it was never in fact cancelled, popular media misconception :action-smiley-069:

True that. Probably because it switched companies. I remember jumping on the 3drealms site and seeing in massive writing, "Goodbye Duke Nukem". I thought DAMN IT!!!!! All this time waiting for it to come out...

The expectations are a F**KING LOT MORE than Gran Turismo 5, that's for sure... 12 years in the making is it??? Sure, they have their reasons, such as restarting it a million times but C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

problem is with 12years, all the updating/recoding that needs to go on.

But at least they have a good idea of what they want :action-smiley-069:

It had better be epic, and it had better be filled with more cheesy lines than a 80s action movie or im gonna be annoyed!

Well thankfully, history shows that none of the older duke nukem games were disappointing... except for the ones on the ol' N64; Duke Nukem 64 and Zero Hour. They were terrible, plus at the time Nintendo didn't allow anything overly sexual (such as pixelated boobies) on their systems. This being said though, my favourite out of ALL the DN games was not DN3D on the PC, but was in fact "Time to Kill" on the PSX :thumbsup:

Have a quick look at the totally AWESOME intro; which, out of every single game I've played is also my favourite intro of all time...

Apologies for going a bit off topic.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
