Thanks for the great stories, keep them coming!
I still can't believe any of this (just found out), 3D Realms is like one of *the* PC game makers (id being another), it *has* to keep going on.
I mean, what with all the progress made on Duke Nukem Forever, it certainly looks like it will be finished by Christmas, even if that means trimming a few levels from the game (which can later be released in the Gold Edition of the game). Surely there must be some way to get enough funding to cover things until then, because once it comes out, it will sell like crazy and the money can be repaid easily.
Seems like it's time to make that first-ever bank loan in the history of Apogee/3D Realms.
But just in case, please go around the 3D Realms offices and lobby and take lots of really high resolution pictures (if you're using a digital camera, set camera for max quality) to document how everything looks, just as it is during the making of Duke Nukem Forever. Make sure to get a really good centered shot of the Duke Nukem symbol in the lobby with as close to a straight down over-head shot as you can get and still keep the whole thing in the picture frame (try it with and without flash). So we have a really high quality reference shot of the Duke symbol in marble.
Plus all the cool posters and stuff on the walls. Then upload them here as an archive of great shots (with captions for each photo, so we know exactly what we are looking at in each shot). Thanks!
