We all remember the days of Duke Nukem 3D. It doesn’t seem like nearly 12 years ago that we first played it but the dates don’t lie. 3D Realms’ Duke Nukem first rolled onto our computer screens in 1996.

So it’s not an exaggeration to say the sequel, Duke Nukem Forever, has been a long time coming. A very long time coming.

According to the Dallas Business Journal, Duke Nukem Forever is set for release late in 2008. No specific date has been given just in case of delays, which is rather sweet. No one likes to be disappointed, eh ?

3D Realms President, Scott Miller, also told the Dallas Business Journal that 2008 would not only see the release of Duke Nukem Forever but also the release of Duke Nukem 3D on the xbox 360.

Have you ever been more excited ? The words ’Christmases’, ’birthdays’ and ’at once’ come to mind.
