</div>Not even a full day after 3D Realms shuts its doors and there is already a fresh retrospective up for the game that never was. Eurogamer has a lovely, two page look at the history of Duke Nukem Forever.
In case you missed it, 3D Realms shut its doors yesterday. Though to some, this closure was not completely unexpected. As always, CS-Nation will have the latest news on this closure should any new developments occur.

Even after all the jokes - Duke Nukem Forever and Ever and Ever and Ever, Did Not Finish, and a million other examples (my favourite is this huge list of things which have happened since DNF was announced), I never quite believed that Duke Nukem Forever simply wouldn't appear. Yet, even for those of us who remember Duke Nukem 3D fondly, it's hard to escape the fact that its strippers, dreadful one-liners and oh-so subversive depiction of the police as actual pigs seemed a hell of a lot more entertaining when we were teenagers, although others at Eurogamer would definitely beg to differ.
More importantly, if you're much younger than 25 or so, you probably don't remember Duke Nukem at all. Once, DNF could have sold itself on the strength of the brand - now it would face an uphill struggle to convince a whole new generation that this slightly twee self-parodying action hero is actually worth a second glance.
