How does Rockstar Films sound to you? It seems the creators of Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption and LA Noire have been toying with the idea of making movies again.
Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar’s parent company, filed for the “Rockstar Films” trademark in December 2010 and it was confirmed on June 14. It gives firm the go-ahead to release animated and live action movies but will it?
So Duke Nukem Forever has finally had its release date changed from god-knows-when to something more definite and if you’re still jonesing for some alien stomping action there’s even more good news. A fan-made, Unreal 3 engine-powered update of Duke Nukem 3D has been officially sanctioned and is bouncing its way towards your PC…
Duke Nukem Forever has become one of the most legendary gaming flops of all time. Now footage from the long-delayed and now apparently abandoned Duke Nukem game has popped up on Youtube.
Take Two boss Ben Feder has told investors that the company has several units of Microsoft’s motion-tracking thingamajig, Project Natal and that several development teams were working with the new device.
BioShock 2 dated! To within the next nine months! Oh.
Duke Nukem Forever might be facing another decade or two in the development pipeline but in the meantime, the legal hijinks are providing a decent source of entertainment for the casual onlooker. Take-Two’s court documents have now been aired in public, giving a clearer view of what’s been happening behind the scenes at Duke Nukem Forever HQ.
Duke Nukem Forever looked like it was dead and buried, taking an estimated $20m of development money with it, but we should have guessed the Duke wouldn’t go down without a fight. Developer 3D Realms has struck out against the recent Take-Two lawsuit, calling it a “bully tactic”, and has promised to defend itself and the rights to the Duke Nukem franchise.
BioShock 2, the sequel to one of the best (and scariest) games of last year, will feature a single-player mode designed by developer 2K Marin, but a multi-player mode designed by Dark Sector, Unreal Tournament and BioShock PS3 developer Digital Extremes.
