"This is 100% true, I can even provide screenshots of the email if one wants to see it."

So 3dwizard where are the screenshots?

[canada4duke]

Yawn! - like rumors like this hasn't surfaced regularly over the past few years.
-
Not holding my breath, not gonna freak out if it falls apart.

[The Duke]

HAHAHA blackharted you right about that

[Striker]

This has definitely piqued my interest. Looks like I'll be paying a lot of attention next month. Kotaku isn't just some random site that says they know or heard something just to be assholes or gain attention/traffic, they are usually pretty reliable; Look at how they figured out the 3DS Design long before E3.

[blakelan91]

yea 3dwizard pics or you're a lying sack of shit.

[Master Fibbles]

No need to start that shit here, blakelan91. Ask politely...or stfu.

[blakelan91]

Don't worry about how I ask questions Mr. Fibble. I was saying it in a joking manor, but of course there's always guys like you who take things too literally eh?

[Master Fibbles]

And there are people like you who try to be funny and fail terribly. There is another thread here that was plagued by flames like your post and it offended a lot of people. Keep things civil and wait patiently. I'm sure 3dwizard is making screenshots of an email from George right now...in photoshop.

[blakelan91]

and there are guys like you who try to be assholes to anyone and everyone, BUT back to the topic. I hope 3dwizard isn't lying about his email from GB because this is the closest the game has ever been to an actual release date being put on it

[The Duke]

Enough with the fighting we are talking about this duke nukem forever thing here

[Tea Monster]

For what reason on this planet would GB send any of the DT's an email?

Really?

Come on.

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

3D Wizard...damn I'm jealous! Why George didn't told me too?! Hell I'm befriended with him at FB!

[Kristian Joensen]

While 3dwizard's story isn't the most convincing story ever, George has been known to reply to email from fans over the years. He has even been known to give little inside nuggets from time to time.

" any of the DT's"

Comeon this is an unnecessary use of slur that was invented for people you(generic you that is) disagree with.

[Richard Shead]

What is a DT?

[3dwizard]

Ok to those that really want proof... Here are 2 screens.
First screen is from an email exchange a few months ago and the other one is from the email exchange I've had with him recently.
I won't post all the mails I've had with him because there are others I've had with him from another email account and I really want that to remain private.
But this should be enough proof to you that he was hinting stuff to me.
I don't feel very confortable posting the insides of my inbox which should be kept private but hopefully ppl will stop being paranoid now.
1.

[Jobi-Wan Kenobi]

sounds legit 3DWizard.
There is no more info in it than I have got too. Except the 1-2 weeks thingy. I haven't talked to my sources since some weeks though.

I appreciate that you posted these mails to proof your claims, but i guess George won't like it that much! This is why I keep my sources closed and only hint at stuff without naming the source.

Holy crap! Don't you ever archive anything? lol

[Kristian Joensen]

No mention of Gearbox in there 3dwizard. So much for George telling you "this".

No
Besides I have more than 5 mails that I actively use so I keep my main ones clean. The gmail ones are not that clean.
I have one with more than 4000 unread mails which are all spam.

This^

And, in regards to your other email and such, you can blur out your address...it won't change how many people actually believe those are real emails from George.

Think about it. They were in the middle of the trial and he is talking about his partners?
Which partners? Which partner that we know, would have had a problem with the gearbox logo.
Also remember how some other dude posted his mails here and George told him the biggest problem he has with that video is the gearbox logo.
Put one and one together and find out why.
To me it was already a well known fact that George had something to do with gearbox, way before the kotaku rumors.
Then kotaku just happens to have new sources that hint exactly what I had figured out myself. There is no coincidence here, it would require it to be too big of a coincidence if this wasn't true. The facts are true and on the table. Everything kotaku is saying is true and there will be more on this in the next few weeks. I will post a few more mails then, which I am not entirely sure I should post now.

@Mr.Flibble I've already stated my views on you a few times so I don't think there's any need to tell you that you are lame and boring again because you already know that.
You also probably get that frequently from people so I will spare you.
If you want to believe those are real mails w/e if you don't want to believe then you can act like the lame cream-paste that you are all the time. To me it's a w/e case no matter what you or others think.
I will certainly not take any offense if you or others don't believe me, since I haven't tried to set myself as a credible source until now and I'm certainly not trying to start from now on.
This was my contribution to this topic, the rest is limbo and I welcome you inside it along with all the other trolls

[Kristian Joensen]

I see absolutely no reason to doubt the authenticity of the emails. I wouldn't accuse 3dwizard of lying at all either, rather this is a case of overeagerness.

Edit:

Also, 3dwizard as well as everyone else: This is not the place for personal attacks and insults like that.

[blakelan91]

touche 3dwizard lol man i dare you to post the other emails or you're not a man

[Stabs]

Does anyone remember that stupid valve main website pic with the numbers and duke pic that made front page on alot of major news sites...

exactly

[...]let's just say this video with the fake logos in it at the beginning is causing some problems to us and our partners.

To me at least, this screams "read between the lines". Jon St. John himself said "read between the lines" in one video interview.

3dWizzard said:

Man why do you guys always have to be so cryptic lol.

They aren't being cryptic per se. They have a legal obligation not to say anything, plain and simple.

I'm sure 3dwizard read these emails more than once himself as he too probably couldn't beleve what he was reading! Sometimes the truth takes a while to sink in. Pinching myself as well....it's not a dream!

Hope this is true, i want to play DNF.

While emails do add up to the whole story with Gearbox, they are nothing without the Kotaku rumour. And 3dwizard was bragging that he knew about exactly this rumour like 1-2 weeks ago from George's email. He didn't. Those emails are like circumstantial evidence.
