Ready for this HUGE screenshot?

Okay, this screenshot is lame. You may or may not have seen it, but a forum search yeilded no results :confused:

It's tiny, I guess because it's not mean to be a publicity screenshot :p It's in-game too, I guess we're really gonna need these nVidia 8900 GX2's

Current criticisms are: hair is not square enough, he looks too old, it all looks too plastic... lol. Also there's speculation that it's just a photoshopped action figure, but I dont think so!

It came from the following link where 3DRealms are looking for a new employee, I guess they put it there to get a high level of traffic to their job posting so that they can get a good employee to work with them:

The confirmation that it's real is George who's boss at 3DRealms AFAIK posted this at shacknews from his account, apparently he's a regular there or something:

Post #5270 is his one methinks

Anyway it's good to get this I guess, even if it is a tiny bit of info. The game has taken TOO LONG to make, but nonetheless I will buy it when it's out.

I hope this hasn't been posted before, although it would suprise me as the news/screenshot is a month old!

Whats the true story?

Its a plastic toy model of the Duke at a games convention isnt it? Theres monitors in the background..
 
it was posted here a number of weeks ago and someone posted a link to a enlarged picture which made the theory of it just being an photo of an action figure look a lot more real as that what it looked like to me and others said the same.
 
George:

"Yes, that was me and that's an in-game, real-time shot of Duke standing in a random hallway," Broussard said. "I just stuck it on a Gamasutra ad to make it stand out from the sea of company logos and maybe act as a small teaser."

"We tend to just do unconventional things in terms of PR," he said. "But we're starting to wake from our slumber and think about when and how best to show the game."

There's nothing left to say. We're glad (most of) you enjoyed the tiny mini screenshot. It is real, George posted so earlier in this thread. Until such time that we decide to release more, the standard rules apply.

"When it's done".

Bull****. Either they're not actual 3DR staff, or they're just riding the publicity wave. Far too coincidental that they decide to make a screenshot of Duke in the exact same post available on a plastic toy. Just a hard light on the side, toy propped up, photo taken, editted in Photoshop to get rid of the stems, and sent around the net to raise interest in the game again.

No they are the actual staff at 3DR, I read it on their own forums. Theres a 50 page thread I skimmed for posts made by Staff. Came from the horses mouth.

So either it's real or the Staff are lying to everybody. Who knows, I don;t really care it;s still god knows how many years away, if indeed the game will ever be released.

I sometimes wonder if the whole thing is a joke, hense the name Duke Nukem Forever........
 
You can see someones finger at the bottom left anyway so it's either gonna be a game like army men, it's a plastic toy, or it's all BS!
