2K Games bought the rights and finished it off.
Yep. Even looks pretty good. 
Although for folks on Consoles there should be an auto-unlock of a trophy/achievement: "I waited 14 years for this S&%*!"

And for PC Players? It's coming out on Steam you know. You could've just said there'd be an auto-unlock achievement, since it's hardly a thing only console gamers have.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Maradon! was all like:
Yeah, I gotta wonder if the people who pre-ordered it at gamestop in 2004 still actually have an effective pre-order.
Hah, someone on /v/ actually posted a picture of their 2004 pre-order receipt
There should be a special edition just for those people

And for the record, I can find no mention of it being on Steam (although with other Gearbox/2k games being on Steam, this is odd) nor can I find a way to pre-order it from Steam.
My original statement still stands at this point.

Borderlands owners on Steam got access codes to the First Access Club for DNF. Skaw fucked around with this message on 02-04-2011 at 02:14 AM.

Not all of them. I own Borderlands, bought it through Steam, got Jack and Shit.

Yes, all of them. Check your Key Codes for Borderlands through steam.

Yep. Even looks pretty good.
Yep, the resurrection of Duke Nukem was the big news at the last PAX

My expectations at this point are for this to be another Dia-Katana. Of course, would be happy to be wrong.
I hope it is a massive flop. It's value as an object lesson would far outweigh the value of yet another six hours of utterly generic FPS gameplay that it promises to deliver.

But is it a lesson anyone would learn? There have been TONS of crapware published in the past, and none have dissuaded publishers/developers from making the same mistakes, over and over.
I mean, yeah.. probably wasn't the wisest decision to grab this property, but fuck.. they actually managed to get the game out in a pretty respectable amount of time given that they didn't even exist when Duke Nukem 3d was published or when DNF was announced, etc, etc. Right at 2 years from when 3d Realms went tits up to a released product isn't unreasonable.
Although I'm seeing it listed as a "Modified Unreal 2.5 Engine" powering the game... Um. That seems a little odd, especially since Borderlands is listed as a "Heavily Modified Unreal 3 Engine" game.

It would've taken even longer if they'd invested the time to migrate to a new engine.
Hopefully it doesn't bite them in the ass.

They already changed engines, what, three times already?

Pretty much. Broussard was the sole reason the game kept getting pushed back because he saw how things were being released during development and had his guys start over to match what was going on. Several times.
