Duke Nukem Forever is dead!
A very reliable source close to Duke Nukem Forever developer 3D Realms today confirmed to Shacknews that the company has been shut down.
The closure came about as a result of funding issues, our source explained, with the shut down said to affect both 3D Realms and the recently resurrected Apogee name. Employees of both entities have already been let go.
Phone calls and e-mails to various 3D Realms veterans have thus far gone unanswered, with publishing partner Take-Two likewise unavailable for comment.
3D Realms was founded in 1987 by Scott Miller and George Broussard, and was best known for its Duke Nukem series of shooters starring the titular, bubblegum-lacking hero. The studio had infamously been working on Duke Nukem Forever, the next flagship franchise entry, for the past 13 years.
A final push to release Duke Nukem Forever began in 2007, marked by a short teaser starring the in-game hero that was released late that year.
As recent as January 2009, company steward George Broussard wrote on his Twitter feed that he was visiting Take-Two to show off the title.

Chinese Food
I got this beef with chinese food on tv/movies. I know what your thinking. Oh here we go again with Ricky and his chinese food. Well too fucking bad, so here we go. I hate scenes where the characters are eating chinese food! You might be thinking "uh what's wrong with that?". I'll tell what's wrong and you're not going to like it because I don't. IT IS OBVIOUS THERE IS NOTHING IN THAT FUCKING CHINESE TAKEOUT BOX! ARGH! And the way that the characters move the chopsticks around in the box like it was soup or something. What the hell are they doing? Playing hockey in there? People in real life don't fucking do this. They don't actually pick up any food that is in there either (keep stirring that nonexistent food some more faggot). In closing fuck your mother.
