I've been keeping up to date with Duke Nukem Forever on and off for a while now and this is great news since the whole Take Two lawsuit showed up.

3D Realms and Take-Two have settled their differences and filed to dismiss their litigation over Duke Nukem Forever.


"The above action, including any and all claims that were or could have been asserted by the parties, is dismissed with prejudice in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement executed by the parties on May 14, 2010," reads the filing made May 28.





With the legal drama out of the way, the road to the long-awaited release of Duke Nukem Forever is apparently clear of legal hurdles--the game just needs to be finished.

Take-Two, the publisher of the notoriously long-in-development shooter, initially sued 3D Realms/Apogee Ltd. after the studio let its development staff go, which Take-Two took to indicate the cancellation of Duke Nukem Forever. 3D Realms fired back with a counter-suit of its own, revealing that the game was still in development.

"Dismissed with prejudice" means that neither can file another suit on the same claim. Details on the "Settlement Agreement" were not available, though the U.S. Trademark Office indicates that 3D Realms still owns the Duke Nukem property.

Never followed so news to me... Still did play one of them though I forget which, was pretty fun considering I was like 13-14 or something like that.

Might have to look into this more now.

They're going to have to completely revamp everything.. Everything they'd done so far has got to be at least a few years out of date.

I thought this was the reason for the delays to begin with. They'd get the latest game engine start making a game and then decide by the time they were in the later stages that a newer better engine was available... Hmm I forgot where I heard that though =/

No, no, don't be disappointed, read between the lines... why am I not allowed to talk about it?"

Duke Nukem Forever lost my interest about 4 year after it wouldn't come out. At this point, if it comes out, great. If it doesn't, no big loss.
