According to former Quake great Steve “sCary” Gibson, Duke Nukem Forever actually exists, and he’s seen it with his own two eyes. Gibson wrote on his site, Shacknews:
I have seen it. […] We watched actual interactive gameplay being interacted with.
Of course, we are far from the first to make such a claim. During 3D Realms’ lengthy development cycle of Duke Nukem Forever here in the Dallas area, I have run in to my fair share of publishers and developers who boast they have gotten a glimpse of the game.
We both confidently agree that after seeing this demonstration, Duke Nukem Forever is looking great, and will easily stand apart from the crowd in both visual and gameplay styles.
Far be it from me to argue sCary’s claims, but the account is missing a lot of details, and most importantly, photo or video evidence of the game’s existence.
The game has almost redefined the term “vaporware.” DNF has been in development for 11 years now–could 2008 be the magic year for developer 3DRealms?
