BitTech, I'm slowly not trusting them as a news source any more as they can't get the facts right.

As despite press releases and commentry from the owners, they're still claiming 3dRealms got $12 million from Take 2, when the fact is that another publishing house got it (GT interactive) as Take 2 were mearly buying the publishing rights.

Still, it's interesting to know there would have been another duke game, and lends even more credibilty that 3dRealms are being screwed if Take 2 suspended development for a game that could have been in development for 18 months. If 3dRealms were relying on the royalties to from that to finish DNF it does seem as if Take 2 were out to screw them, especially as that new game was suspended only in April.

So this means we would've had something to look forward to in 2145?

Same thing as ever. DNF might be coming at some point in the very distant future.

Next Duke game is out in the Fall apparently.

The next proper Duke game will be out 6 to 12 months after the lawsuit though. I'd be willing to put money on that.
