Duke Nukem Forever release possible

AS THE GAMES outfit Take-Two's executives watch their share price plummet, they have made a bid to finish the infamously much-delayed game Duke Nukem.

According to a SEC filing, they have offered 3D $500,000 to finish the game by December.

Gamespot said that Take-Two needs all the cash it can get after posting a $50.2 million loss last week.

In March the outfit was in negotiations with 3D to renegotiate the 1997 contract to create Duke Nukem. Originally 3D would have got $6 million to complete the game, now it will only get $4, 250 and a fish n chip supper if it ever finishes.

Not much of a motivation, however $500,000 promissory note if everything is finished by December does put a different complexion on things.

If it does make it by the end of the year we suspect there will be a launch event hosted by Lord Lucan on the deck of the Marie Celeste. More here.
