Duke Nukem Forever

[emcon5]

Also, as a prime example of "If you put something online, it is there forever" I found several copies of a map I created for Duke 3D available online, that I uploaded to a couple sites in 1997.

The sites I used are long gone, but the file is still out there, hosted by some new ones, including one in French.

Just when you thought internet stories were safe to believe again.

Yep, using eduke32:

Multiplayer - EDukeWiki

Not as clean as modern games, but it should work.

well, a few buddies of mine played around with this last night and couldnt get it to connect using eDuke, but were successful using Yang. Although it take MANY tries which included turning off firewalls, and opening ports in routers, etc, but finally. it worked.

OMG.. WOW.!!! I literally had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard of all the memories this brought back.

just WOW....

I remember that

You guys would not believe the shenanigans that went on with that IP.

Contrary to recent announcements there are still some unresolved issues on the table which may negatively impact our revenue stream but I think it will all work out.

If they stick the Creative Director that I think they will on it it'll kick ass.

He worked for me at another company and is really one of the most talented guys I've seen.

Should be worth the wait.

Tummymonkey, Do you know Joel Hochberg of Rare Coin Games and Donkey Kong fame? He's mostly retired now but did the business end of a lot of game development back in the 80s and 90s. Very good guy.

No don't know Joel. He would most likely have been an arcade/coin drop guy.

Different group of people than the console guys.

Coin drop had the luxury, and added expense, of working with hardware/boards specifically tailored to their game while on the console side we were/are locked into hardware specs.
