The original target release date for Duke Nukem Forever was late 1997. They missed it a bit.

That was '97. So was Zero Hour. Time to Kill was '98.

You are wrong.

Now now, let us not bicker and argue about numbers and dates. Let us keep focused on the fact that 3DRealms is composed of a bunch of shit-flinging monkeys.

Actually, you got the dates for every single one of them wrong. You said that Land of the Babes and Zero Hour were released in 1997, when LotB was really released in 2000 and Zero Hour was released in 1998. You said that Time to Kill was released in 1998 when it was really released in 1997. I'm not sure if there's any possible way for you to be more wrong than you were.

Actually read the site you quoted. TTK: Released: October 1, 1998. I messed up Zero Hour and LotB by a few years.

These incompetents should be shut down and re-routed to other projects and the game cancelled. Who gives a fuck about Duke Nukem anymore anyway? The only people who even know what it is are people who played Duke Nukem 3D when it came out, I wager.

hey, what about the people that played the original. the good old duke nukem without 3D. that was way cooler anyways. ego shooters tend to suck.
