I accidentally stumbled across some more news of 3D Realms' fate. Apparently they're not gone, but the Duke Nukem Forever (DNF) development team was let go on May 6th. It's not great news, but it's a little better :).

Also, here's some leaked DNF media for ya:

• Gameplay and animations video in a GameTrailers.com user video.

Update: 3D Realms isn't gone! Read more in this post.

3D Realms, 1987-2009????

While I would have loved playing Duke Nukem Forever and all of the future titles 3D Realms would have brought us, I'm much more saddened by the loss of the company itself, and the history that surrounded it. We'll miss you 3D Realms!

Here is their goodbye post with a picture of themselves.

Note: The 3D Realms logo does not belong to me, I copied it from their site here, and host it myself in case their site is taken down.
