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.

Just looking at that makes you wanna punch someone in the face. October 2001 and STILL waiting.........................................................................

............................................

george broussard is the one who needs punching in the face fyi.

Yeah I can remember mail order games shops in PC Powerplay mag taking preorders for DNF, Prey and TF2 in 1999, so glad I didn't lol

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
