14 years developing the game and....
http://www.dailytech.com/Duke+Nukem+...ticle21845.htm
So a game got leaked earlier than the release date. What else is new?
Leaked 10 years too late. *cough*
I don't really care but I thought I'd post either way.
These things happen almost every time, now bring me something that I do not know.
really duke nukem cool
I miss Duke Nukem with babes
Lol a lot of games are leaked early.
And this game aint that good either way.
i dont even want this game, from the gameplay vids ive seen its pretty avarage lol.
Duke Nukem on the PS1 was the shit.Quote:

guys, did you hear that "whooooosh"? it was the point, going over your heads
a record 14 years to give it birth, and their business is already ruined before starting. wonder if they think it was worth the effort now...
Leaking the game earlier will do nothing.Quote:

But in this case. No. Just no. This won't affect their sales at all.
the fact that it took so long probably meant there were guys INSIDE the development team thinking "god dammit i am so sharing this as soon as we got gold".Quote:

win
What kind of ridiculous statement is that. Yeah they won't be buying it because they have never bought a single game in their life and never will. How is this making a difference in this case? No matter what happens nothing will change this.Quote:

If they pirated then their friends are most likely pirates too. And what stops anybody at any time to pirate this or any other game to test the waters if it is worth the money? I mean, how can a few days before the release affect anything at all if you will have an infinite time in the future to pirates this game at any moment? What will change if a person A will pirated the game now or 2 weeks later? Tell me.
Yes it won't be that it won't affect the sales at all. But the effect will be so minimal you won't even notice it.
Please use your brain which Mother nature gave to you before you even attempt posting.

marcipaans, do you think the last BF will sell as many units the first week it releases as 5 months later?
the timing matters. specially in a single player game, the first days are pretty important, thats when the companies invest the most in advertising campaigns and expect to get tons of impulse buyers.
That's what E3 is for. 5 months? Game is still in alpha phase and even if something is leaked it's unplayable and not fully finished. That "hype" you build is months, even years before the official release.Quote:

Except I accidentally copied the thread instead of moving it. First time I've done that in 7 years!
