Apogee updates on Duke Nukem Trilogy progress

by Jem Alexander { Jan 15th 2009 at 1:30PM }

Apogee has responded on their official forums to requests for more info on the upcoming Duke Nukem handheld trilogy. Yes, it seems the games really do exist. We're as surprised as you are. An Apogee representative says that "both the DS and PSP versions of the game are coming along nicely." Adding that "on the PSP, they say the depth of view is the best they have seen to date for that device." So while we're still not sure how the game will play, at least we can be safe in the knowledge that the depth of view will be second to none.

Apogee concludes by saying that "we are also including some cool bonus game play features that we haven't spoken about that we feel will enhance the overall way the game is played. That's all we can say for now, other than stay tuned, more info in greater detail is on the way!" We're intrigued to learn more, if only because we've almost forgotten what it's like for a Duke Nukem game to actually see the light of day. Check out the awesome E3 trailer after the break.

[Thanks, David B.!]

Hope its not fps. Fps for consoles always have bad controls.

You mean handhelds, right?

anarkhy @ Jan 15th 2009 8:08PM

consoles are bad.
handhelds are just worst.
fps are kings for computers.

I've always loved the "I don't suck, the controls do" defense.

You are very easily pleased if you think that was awesome Jem, lets hope that the games are a lot better than that piss poor excuse of a trailer.

I hope you're being sarcastic about the "awesome" E3 trailer. That could be and on second thought IS the worst trailer I have ever seen in my life and it goes on for a ridiculous amount of time. Come on now...

It is sarcasm, duh, lol

It is definitely sarcasm lol. In fact Joystiq/fanboy did a whole post on how "awesome" it was lol.

In other words the flame the crap out of apogee/3D Realms for showing this at E3.

Wow I remember playing DukeNukem .... on like a 486, Might have been a Pentium 100... If they were going to make an official release of an old school FPS ..... they should try to do a good port of Quake with the Teamfortress mod but only if they can get it supporting 32+ players per map now that would be AWESOME!
