If you’re on your way to hell right now like I am you might want to grab a jacket, as today’s announcement from 3D Realms in the Dallas Business Journal is predicting a heavy cold front down there. Yes, unbelieveable as it may sounds, 3D Realms’ president Scott Miller announced that Duke Nukem Forever, the title that is taking forever, will be released on the PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3 this year.
In addition to this Miller also confirmed that the original Duke Nukem 3D will be getting a release as well this year on the Xbox Live Arcade with online multiplayer, scoreboards, and a co-op mode. Here’s hoping they don’t censor it as badly as I expect they will.
UPDATE: Reports from ShackNews say that 3D Realms is contradicting the Miller statements. An official announcement will probably be posted later today.
For those of us who were victims of the issues that plagued Xbox Live several weeks ago it appears that we may be on the way to feeling justified. In concurrence with the apology letter sent out by Xbox Live general manager Marc Whitten it was announced today that Microsoft will allow all subscribers to download the XBLA game Undertow for free starting next Wednesday and ending the following Sunday. Those who already own the game are asked to call 1-800-4My-Xbox, at which they will most likely refund your purchasing price for the game.
Not bad a deal. In all honesty though I’d rather download Rez HD though…

Looks like Gamevideos/1up has a nice little walkthough posted. Check it out.

Most interesting, to me is the “expanded codec support”. Divx or Xvid? I sure hope so.
You can read the full list of updated features after the JUMP^
