Reply #246: I think the Stonekeep award will be renamed the DNF award.

For those that don't know what I mean, Stonekeep was a game in the 1990s that was infamous for being, at the time, the game that took the longest time from conception (vaporware) to completion (actual product you can buy on store shelves). It took 6 years.

Now, DNF (Duke Nukem Forever) demolishes that by going from 1997 (conception) to completion (2011). Fourteen years!


Oh, and if you are not familiar with Duke Nukem, in the previous version, Duke Nukem 3D, he pretty much did the same stuff. Although, I don't remember killing women in that one, there were strippers and druggies.

Duke Nukem's character is supposed to be a blend of Bruce Willis' "Die Hard", John Wayne, and the Bruce Campbell hero in "Army of Darkness". He even says "Ooooh.... Hail to the King, baby!"
