How much money George and Scott have???

evilemperorzorg · 02-07-2011, 04:53 PM

Does anyone know how much money they have?
Im prety sure that they are millionaires because ive read somewhere that they spent 20 million dollars of their personal money for DNF!
Just curious!!!

Jiminator · 02-07-2011, 10:52 PM

around one hundred million billion dollars.

Inanimate Carbon Rod · 02-08-2011, 12:35 AM

Enough to have you killed.

evilemperorzorg · 02-08-2011, 06:45 AM

LoL

My guess would be:

Non tangible assets and IP - ~ $2M (all old or under development titles now. Don't think Shadow Warrior would be worth too much unfortunately)
Building (if they own it) - $2.5 Million
Equipment, office fit-out, etc - $100k (I think most stuff was sold/given away)
Cash on hand - $15 Million
-------------------------------------
Total Assets ~ $20M

Royalties (monthly) approx $75k? (mostly Prey) Rest is probably <$10k.

Total yearly royalties ~ $1M Max presently.

-------------------------------------

So my incredibly wild and inaccurate guess would be assets of around $20M plus a $1M in yearly royalties.

evilemperorzorg · 02-08-2011, 11:47 PM

LOL if the ship in my avatar had a price it would have been billions!!!!!!!!!!!!!

townie · 02-09-2011, 12:02 AM

Forgot about all the iphone, xbox live etc ports. Royalties might be closer to several million a year???

If they have 20 millions,then why they had to look for 5 million dollars from 2k games???????

Why they didnt gave 2.5 each to complete the game?

My wild guess for available cash is based on after selling the Duke Nukem IP. Before it was sold 3DR was very low on operating cash hence Geroge's attempt to seek additional funding.

Joe Siegler · 02-10-2011, 01:24 AM

Some of these wild speculations are quite funny.

Bam050196 · 02-10-2011, 12:14 PM

Don't they have like $20 Million from selling the Duke Nukem IP the Gearbox?

KareBear · 02-10-2011, 02:04 PM

Add another several million from selling the Prey ip.

evilemperorzorg · 02-10-2011, 02:55 PM

Add income from old games like Max Payne{1&2}Prey,Duke Nukem{PC and Consoles mostly Xbox Live Arcade}.
Really hope that they already puting ideas together for SW 2 or ROTT 2!!!!!!!
Otherwise im gonna kick their asses!!!!

Joe check out Heaven and hell athens 2009.What a great time i had that night.RIP Ronnie

Kristian Joensen · 02-12-2011, 11:42 AM

It is pretty much impossible to guess with any sort of accuracy at all about the financial situation of 3D Realms yet alone George or Scott personally. There are lots and lots of variables we know nothing or virtually nothing about. Most by design, as it it none of our business.

IceColdDuke · 02-12-2011, 08:12 PM

/speculation

Obviously they were running "low" on money otherwise George wouldn't have closed down 3DR. Low to me means I'm down to $5, low to george could mean "oh crap I'm down to 10 million dollars".

/backtoreality

Who cares, I'm really sure there fine : ).

Its just that we all want to them to have money both personal to be happy and give them strength{LoL}and also to 3D Realms bank acount so they can give us a great games like the old times.
Who wants to some Wang???Its about time to have some WANG
AND DONT SAY 3D REALMS SHUT DOWN.HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE TO SAY 3D REALMS STILL EXIST ONLY DNF DEVELOPMENT TEAM WAS LAID OF.3D Realms still have 35 workers!!

Let me explain something to you evilemperorzorg. You are new here. Your entusiasm is notable. People who care about things put personal time and energy into things. This is good.

On the other hand, people who are "reactive" are different. Some of your posts are "reactive". If you want to really be a part of the 3D Realms community, you might want to put some of your enthusiasm into learning about 3D Realms. One thing I can say for this community is that it has a LOT of long term members who know as much about 3D Realms as can be known.

So here is my point... correcting members "HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE TO SAY 3D REALMS STILL EXIST ONLY DNF DEVELOPMENT TEAM WAS LAID OF" is probably not wise, EVEN if you were correct, but you aren't even correct.

Then you say "3D Realms still have 35 workers!" Wrong again, and most people here know this. Bryan C. Turner, George Broussard, and Scott Miller are currently the only publicly known employees of 3D Realms.

The closing point is this... just try to relax man. Just take your time and read the history of the 3D Realms. No need to be defensive, and being defensive with incorrect facts causes your passion for 3D Realms to look hollow.

Many of us want 3D Realms to continue as a developer, but until they decide to do that, we can only wait.

Shadow Warrior on modern engines is something many would like to see for sure... but until 3D Realms makes a move, wanting some Wang is all we can do.

Welcome to the 3D Realms community.

MrBlackCat - Wanter of Wang.

That is old information... In matters such as this, Wikipedia can't really be trusted as accurate.

VrX · 02-15-2011, 08:51 AM

Amen to that mr.BlackCat

Soon after we have DNF ,we will regroup all in 3DR forums back ,and *DEMAND*

for some Wang 2 ....

Bryan3DR · 02-15-2011, 10:12 AM

Gotta say.... Well done MrBlackCat.

evilemperorzorg · 02-15-2011, 12:05 PM

I post this topics like what happened to 3D Realms studios and how much money......
because i dont know some things and i want you people that know them to tell me.I dont try to play the smart guy,but why im wrong of saying only the development team left.I know this from George Broussard as all of you do.If you search on the net <3D Realms shuts down> this is what you gonna find.Whatever
And i know wiki isnt to be trusted but i thought that after all this time 3D Realms would have hired a few people to work with them.
I dont know why something ive posted maybe insulted you but im sorry if i did{REALLY}
I think im in the forums since 2008 or 2009 I cant remember.I wasnt that active.I just watched you guys talking.You must be here MUCH MORE YEARS THAN ME.I know that
HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE TO SAY 3D REALMS STILL EXIST ONLY DNF DEVELOPMENT TEAM WAS LAID OF.I said this in a friendly way,not like saying you idiots dont know.

Anyway you tell me that im breaking your balls in some way

LoL
Dont worry i wont from now on

And something offtopic.I just watched IGNs review of DNMP XLA.These idiots have no right to talk about Duke Nukem Forever when it comes out and start selling millions of copies.Duke Nukem should go away and his lines are old and dated???WTF???
Wait IGN, just 3 months and you gonna get a footprint from Dukes boot in your ass

Bryan3DR · 02-16-2011, 07:44 AM

evilemperorzog: First yes. We are still a company. That part is 100% right and I can say that because I know for a fact that we are.

But when I say "We are still a company." on an online forum, and I say "WE ARE STILL A COMPANY" they have 2 different meanings.

Since you are new to online forums when you use caps it is considered yelling. So you are taken like you are mad/upset/whatever. Just remember that even though you said it in a friendly way, when you type it no one can hear how you said it.

OK.But im not new in online forums ive been in Deep Purple's forum since 2004 and in My clans{ http://boom-clan.forumotion.net/ } Forum in Gore Ultimate Soldier{PC ACTION GAME FROM 2002,NOW FREE TO DOWNLOAD,you should give it a try}since 2007.Just enter you will see my name in the members list on the left.

Something that may sound stupid to you now,when i was kid and i was playing Duke Nukem i thought that it must be imposible to talk to someone from Dukes development team because in my mind you were rich surounded by bodyguards and fans not allowed to speak or go close to them.LoL.like actors for example or singers in concerts.
Dont call me an idiot.I was 6.

evilemperorzorg · 02-17-2011, 01:04 PM

Are they going to earn money from Forever or the deal was Forever and all the other games with Duke that will folow?

IceColdDuke · 02-21-2011, 06:05 PM

Its good to see Bryan is still working at 3DR

, my biggest concern about 3DR isn't so much how much money George and Scott have, it more has to do with if they were going to make a new game with a new IP more than likely they would need a backing of a publisher and/or investors which might be hard for them at this point but thats being purely speculative.

I hope 3DR comes back cause I more or less grew up on these forums and it was a sad day when 3DR closed it's doors(made me kinda feel old :/).
