- Duke Nukem Forever Exists! -
Shacknews got to see Duke Nukem Forever in action and they seemed rather
impressed given the somewhat lengthy development cycle the game has had: "We
actually got to see the truth of Duke curator George Broussard's many past
claims, including environmental puzzles and interactivity, a host of
finished weapons, the existence of an in-game forklift, and plenty of heads
and arms being blown off. We both confidently agree that after seeing this
demonstration, Duke Nukem Forever is looking great, and will easily stand
apart from the crowd in both visual and gameplay styles."

new, is what they're getting at.
