Wow. I used to live on 3DRs forums. I can't believe they have fallen so far down that they feed off the crumbs of others who finish their work. If I were Broussard or Miller, I would be ashamed. But I guess when you've lived off others for so long, you don't think like that. |

If Gearbox has refused to submit to a contractually agreed upo audit of royalty statements then what the fuck are we talking about?? They are fucking HIDING something? Im not one to defend Broussard but Randy has proven time and again that he is a douchebag who wants to make a quick buck at the expense of gamers and at the expense of the IP involved. |

Didn't they mostly just get the IP and the game itself was done from scratch over again by gearbox? No, there were things in the final release of the game that I recognized from pre-y2k. From people I know at Gearbox, it was practically finished when they got it, and the only thing stopping it's release was Broussard's inability to let go.

Gearbox might make some pretty crappy games from time to time but this lawsuits stinks I'm not actually aware of the recent lawsuits to Gearbox, so maybe my reaction would differ if so, however... Pitchford did a personal favor to Broussard, after Broussard met with him and gave him a seriously earnest and heartfelt admission of defeat and regret, to resurrect and complete DNF's development. A PERSONAL FAVOR. They are a business, they obviously saw money in it, but the fact that a man put a company he represents on the line for a friend is taking a big-fucking-leap.
The fact that this same "friend" would sue them.....
Holy fucking shit.
Lastly, I had fun with DNF too, and I really don't give a shit about Duke Nukem. It was a decent game. Would have been AMAZING if it were released 8-10 years ago.

Nah...who would produce a movie about a failed Game studio suing another mediocre game studio seeking money for a dud game?
Yeah, well ya gotta spice it up with a love interest and some explosions. Michael Bay should get on it. |

The real winners are actually going to be the law firms on both sides, billing their clients for every possible cent they can possibly squeeze out. |

Perhaps the lesson learned here is to never enter a gaming business deal with a person who has had more lawsuits than shipped games. Zing! Ironically, 3D Realms was sued only once by Take Two for not finishing DNF on time. This year alone Gearbox is facing at least two separate lawsuits. |

Heh, cocky son of a gun aint he... Definitely sounds like he would be one who would screw someone over.. You Can see it in his own words... Who is he blaming the failure of DNF over? He didnt see that before he tried to milk a genre of what he thought would be an easy pile of cash? Guy does'nt know shit about Duke Nukem character, other than trying to be a one liner mastro.. utter failure.. game was horse crap. Probably is willing to accept to be sued to not disclose to the public what failure he was evolved in... sounds like he is the ego maniac |

I would agree it was an about-average shooter. Most of the negativity was very subjective in that it had more to do with 12 years of expectations than legitimate complaints about the game itself.
I would also agree that Gearbox needs to stop taking on these charity case development projects, because they're just not working out for them... Probably the reason those projects were struggling to begin with. |
