Maybe they'll just include it as some kind of redeemable code in the case?

I think this will be the case, just like the extra weapons from pre-ordering shooters.

Way to read, guys.

Today in DNF news;
Randy Pitchford swears that all DNF preorders will be honored no-matter how long ago they were placed
and;
3D Realms lost "20-30 Million" on Duke Nukem Forever (Remember; DNF was entirely self funded in 3DR's reign)

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to see if my father ever pre-ordered DNF...

[RobClock]

More news: Apparently, the reason that the DNF reveal trailer from PAX hasnt got put out because it's too crude and could actually get them in trouble.

At a recent event in London, Pitchford asked journalists not to film  the new trailer that Gearbox had put together, saying that it didn't  want Take-Two to be "punished" for Gearbox's creativity.  The trailer  apparently featured: strippers, nudity, gratuitous swearing, curse words  rendered in massive letters, giant aliens getting punched in the junk  and Duke getting pleasured by two girls at once.  Demonstrating a  mastery of understatement, Pitchford said the ESRB and PEGI would likely  not approve of the content.

the ESRB ratings should never apply to Duke Nukem. ever.

Amirite or amirite.

This comment comes out of nowhere, but I am glad that you are a fan even if you weren't "intellectually aware" by the time the authentic hype was on. I am fan of many things that existed even before I was born as well, so don't be let down by people telling you shit like YOU WERENT EVEN BORN DUDE WTF.

SO ANYWAYS, yeah this is looking promising. I was always more of the DOOM kid on the 90s, but this does look rad as fuck.

Found some Demo footage from a german game-con. Shows off alot of weapons!

Thanks, Tequila, I appreciate it.

The only reason I personally brought up his age in relation to Duke 3D was because the debate me and rob were having was based solely on Nostalgia. Soundblaster theme Vs. the Modern theme.

of course, this is all irrelevant now. DNF is all that matters.

[VuBawlsClock]

Giant titty monster? I gotta get this game now.

[RobClock]

There's now a big-ass link on the front of DukeNukemForever.com leading to THIS PAGE where you can redeem your "DNF first access pass".

One word: WANT

[TequilaClock]

Well looks like I have another excuse to buy Borderlands despite of my lack of money.

[RobClock]
