Delays should never worry you too much, you know; especially if it's a one-week or a one-month delay, like Batman: Arkham City (read yesterday's news). Otherwise, don't fret about such short delays. Of course, if a game (any game) suffers a slightly longer delay, it means the devs need more time to polish things and that's good...

As you probably already know, the unbelievable has happened. Duke Nuke Forever has gone gold and now Gearbox has also released the launch trailer for the game (which, naturally, has more boobage, as most of the previous ones). Take a look: VIDEO: DNFLaunchtr.flv Duke Nukem Forever is going to be available in stores on June 14 for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

So, then, Duke Nukem Forever, thoughts? Personally, I don't know what to think anymore. Clearly the project was given to someone who can actually bring a development cycle to a close (i.e. Gearbox). The guys at Gearbox are known to churn out pretty solid games, so I'm hoping that, despite my incredible skepticism, DNF makes it to stores and delivers a fun FPS experience (as it did in the past).

Don't think things will change much in the future. Although it seems like we may actually play DNF next year, I just have this weird familiar feeling... AT COMIC: Back to the Future of Nukem Oh and this is officially AT comic no. 400. Wow, that's a lot of comics.

Ah crap, my vacation is coming to an end. Waving goodbye to the lovely seashores of Greece, hopefully not for the last time. Gonna be back in the office on Monday to continue the usual work (looks like I have a tremendous amount of reviews to do)...

Oh dear God! Just how in the hell am I supposed to feel about this? They officially announce the release of a game that was supposed to be released 12,000 centuries ago? Give us a launch trailer and just kick this thing out the door already. That's right, the forever-in-development-but-never-released shooter -- Duke Nukem Forever -- is finally going to see the light of day...

Oh wow! It's leaked footage from a game that's been in development for more than 12 years and has never ever seen the light of day. Still, I guess it's better than releasing one absurdly tiny thumbnail per year (which they have done so many times in the past). Overall, I honestly do not know what to say about this shit any longer. Judge it as you will:

I vowed not to get involved in anymore news, rumors or even official reports of any kind regarding Duke Nukem Forever, but what the heck, I see we're looking at yet another slow news days, so I guess it won't do any harm in posting what I'm about to post. Anyway, have a look at the following news tidbit and tell me what you think. I know what I think. At this point, I think swimming in the city's raw sewage is more interesting than reading more DNF news.

Shack reports that the ongoing battle between Take-Two and 3D Realms, concerning Duke Nukem Forever, just got a bit more, well, serious. Take-Two alleges that some offshore banking shenanigans took place: "upon information and belief, [3D Realms/Apogee Ltd...

Okay, here's a little something from George Broussard's twit. It basically says that DNF has reached some sort of major milestone (thanks VE3D): Closing out a milestone this week. 71 more tasks to do and we started with probably 800-900. Been a good push. Next one starts Monday. Whatever.

Yesterday, a report on Dallas Business Journal uncovered an alleged "late 2008" release date for Duke Nukem Forever, on top of information regarding the plans for console editions of the game. The report quoted 3D Realms' Scott Miller who, mind you, wasn't too confident about the disclosed info: "We haven't formally announced any platforms for DNF...
