No $30M Offer for Duke Nukem IP, Says 3D Realms

Take two sues 3drealms and looks like 3drealms has no money and the only valuable think they have is the Duke IP. Hopefully they will get it and finish it

Yes , T2 demanded copy of source code of the game as well.
This website has some fun facts and things that happened during the alleged development of Duke , it is pretty good , take some time and look at it at the near the mid-end of the page. , you won't lose

The Duke Nukem Forever List

To be really honest, I don't think even Take2 were stupid enough to offer any more money to 3DR in order to get the game finished, especially given the history with Broussard.

I wonder if Take2 is just trying to cover their own ass by this action.

My favourite are:
Quote:
The United States' entire program to put a man on the moon, from Kennedy's challenge to the landing.

  • World War II and the entire Manhattan Project. Yes, even the complete development of the atomic bomb took less time.
  • Alexander The Great's conquest of Persia took 6 years, from 334BC to 328BC
