Duke Nukem Forever is the stuff of legends, but not for the right reasons. A follow-up to Duke Nukem 3D, which came out in 1996, Duke Nukem Forever was first shown off at E3 1998 and delayed numerous times until it finally came out in 2011. By then, Duke Nukem Forever had lots its hype, and it certainly didn't help that the game was buggy as hell.
To date, Duke Nukem Forever remains a great example for studios about knowing when to quit.
Having said that, it's been years until people have talked about Duke Nukem Forever with some form of optimism, but it's exactly what happened earlier this week after a gameplay build of the game's original concept appeared online.
A 4chan user leaked footage of the build online and claims that they plan to release a full version in June. To prove its authenticity, Duke Nukem Forever's producer, George Broussard, said that the video looks authentic. However, Broussard warned that players should "heavily temper expectations", explaining that he has "no knowledge" about who leaked the build after saying that "there is no real game to play."
