The
Duke Nukem Forever Release Update on TotalVideoGames (thanks Mike Martinez)
is another of those occasional pot-stirring stories about the long-time
in-development shooter, based on a quote that was attempting to do just the
opposite. The story reproduces a quote from 3D Realms' George Broussard
explaining why they are staying low-key at this time, as he reveals that they
are still not that close to completion:
“IMO, it's more abusive to the
community to continue to talk about and show the game when it's not real close
to release. What's the point of leading people on? The best thing we can, and
should do, is to shut up, finish the game and start showing it and talking about
it when it's near enough release that people can actually see light at the end
of the tunnel.”
