i have always questioned some companies "motives" and "reasons" for doing certain things such as the securing of certain licenses for games. but the biggest question i have is how can some companies (or company in this case) be so blind to not to supply the creation of a game with enough monetary input. the game i am specifically talking about is none other than the most hyped laughing stock of the video game industry called Duke Nukem Forever.
For those who don't know (but most of you do) Duke Nukem was already a successful gaming franchise producing popular hits such Duke Nukem 1,2 and 3D. The supposed 4th game in the installment Duke Nukem Forever was planned to be released in 1998 a whopping 12 years ago. I will not go into full detail but i will give more a summary
-basically release dates kept getting pushed back and back due to a multitude of problems. whether it was the gaming engine being used wasn't efficient enough to the developers not liking the way the game was turning out. Eventually the game was near the end of production (which means the game was nearly completed) when a spat over money ultimately doomed the game of ever existing. This occured may 6th 2009 ( a little less than a year ago)
Now i can fully understand a **** load of money was poured into this game( both the gaming companies and the producers of the game) and it was pushed back multiple times but why would the company in question allow this game to no longer exist after 15 some odd years were put into this game. Even the fanbase now so many years later, is still very large and if this game was released a heap of money would come flowing in every possible direction. so i ask to the operation sports community WHY? could some one please explain that to me because frankly i don't get it
