News: Gearbox to release Duke Nukem Forever in 2011

Gearbox Software has confirmed recent rumour that it would complete development on long-delayed shooter Duke Nukem Forever, following last year's closure of original developer 3D Realms.

The reborn game was unveiled at the PAX conference today, with Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford confirming release to the Wall Street Journal.

"Clearly the game hadn't been finished at 3D Realms but a lot of content had been created," he said.

Kinect Sports developer Rare has played down worries about the size of room required by upcomin Xbox 360 motion controller Kinect.

In July online shop Amazon revealed Kinect requires six feet of space between the player and their television, fueling much debate as to its effectiveness in small rooms.

However, Rare's senior software engineer Nick Burton said the issue has been blown out of proportion.

It has been alleged that an American firm has this week purchased Project MyWorld from the administrators of Realtime Worlds.

The report by Develop did not name the mystery firm, but if it is indeed American, earlier suggestion that Realtime World's Dundee-based bosses Dave Jones and Ian Hetherington were planning on buying the social game back would appear unfounded.

Also alleged is that Realtime World's other title, the commercially unsuccessful MMO APB, is not part of the deal, leaving its fate unknown.

Publisher Bethesda has announced it will present its portfolio of upcoming games at the 2010 Eurogamer Expo in London next month.

The Earl's Court event is the UK's largest consumer games show, and now adds Bethesda titles RAGE, Hunted: The Demon's Forge, Fallout: New Vegas and Brink to its roster of publicly-showcased games.

In attendance will be id Software creative director Tim Willits, plus inXile game director Maxx Kaufman and president Matt Findley.
