I took a peek around the discs and found there were a lot more files than there needed to be for such a brief demo (one level set in Las Vegas).
So I installed the demo, but thought there had to be more. Would I be one of the first people to actually play this game? Advertisement A few days ago I received a few DVD-ROMs from 3D Realms containing some old E3 footage of Duke Nukem Forever, and I was shocked to find there was a playable demo spread across the four DVDs. It helps them get the word out on games, and it helps me keep up on what's coming down the pipe. Oftentimes it's just a matter of getting a disc filled with videos and demos. It's not a ton, but it's always nice to get a free game or two in the mail. One of the perks of writing for a site as big as Ars is the fact that sometimes you get stuff in the mail. Of course, the silence had to be broken at some point. The game has since been stuck in unending development hell ever since it was announced in April 1997, the butt of jokes that would make John Romero blush.
DUKE NUKEM FOREVER DEVELOPMENT TIME PC
Does anyone really remember Planet of the Babes fondly? The original PC title needed an update, and soon one was announced. The original computer game got a few expansions, and then turned into a long string of terrible console games. The level design was almost as good as Doom 2, and I don't say that lightly. The game was great, you got your teleporting, your freeze ray, your strippers, everything you could want. Our own Opposable Thumbs writer Rodney designed any number of maps for it and we would be sending pipe bombs down the elevator shaft into the wee small hours of the night. I wasted away most of my junior high years playing Duke Nukem 3D.
