According to Bloomberg, Take Two Interactive states that “Apogee continually delayed the completion date for the Duke Nukem Forever. Apogee repeatedly assured Take-Two and the video-gaming community that it was diligently working toward competing development of the PC Version of the Duke Nukem Forever”
The publishers state that they paid $12 million for the publishing rights of the game back in 2000 and signed a new agreement in 2007. Obviously, Duke Nukem Forever never made it out. Still, at the moment it is unknown what damages is Take Two asking from 3D Realms, but I do hope that the current state of DNF is there and they’ll continue with the development. I would hate this DNF joke to end in such a trashy manner…
