Hello there friends,

It's been a while since I have written a new piece of work, but I really had to get this one out of my system.  It has to do with a recent post on Kotaku.com.

Now, for the lazy reader I'll break it down for you.  Scott Miller (Co-Founder of 3D Realms) is trying to assure the public that there will be a Duke Nukem Forever, and alot of smaller Duke games coming out, including a trilogy on DS and PSP.

I think it well past time we put Duke down, preferably behind the shed next to Old-Yeller.  It's not that I think 3D Realms is incapable of making a good game, but in truth there is no anticipation from anyone who was a fan and no new fans are coming in.  In order for the game to do well, it has to bring about something very unique and interesting.

Unfortunetly, so much time, money, tallent, and people have been wasted on the Duke Nukem Forever project that I really cant see any game coming out under the title to be anything but a brown and grey high-rez smeer across the screen. 

Look Scott, you guys did very well earlier with the Duke games, it's definetly a notch on 3D Realm's belt no one will take away, but as a fan, I say move on.  The teams you create to make these games are going to waste, the money you're using to milk your once prized cash cow is costing you more than you'll probably recieve at this point, and truthfully, do you think Duke still maintain's any of his former traits without becoming a true parody of himself? Heck, we already got Matt Hazard (EAT LEAD!) for that, and he does a pretty good job of it.

We're at a point now where the sequels are overlapping the new content, but it's quite clear because of this, any new IP that was done at least compidently tends to earn enough cash to validate a sequel.

On that note readers, KANE & LYNCH 2: DOG DAYS *****EZ!!!!

er...

Yea, had to get that out of my system.

Until Next Time,
