Never Forgotten

Hey, has anyone heard of this?

This is apparently a recreation of it, but here's the part of the article that talks about it:

This might be the perfect matchup of famous vaporware: Duke Nukem Forever and the mid-engine Corvette. In 2003, 3D realms was hoping to re-kindle interest in the long-delayed game, and so decided to commission a car for Comic-Con.

They used GM’s old 1990 concept car, the CERV III Corvette mid-engined ‘Research Corvette’, as the basis for their car. As part of an eight-month lease, they were permitted to make “non-permanent” additions and customizations to the car.

3D Realms had a fiberglass Duke Nukem built and mounted on the roof, appearing to be bursting out, and big logo decals were mounted on the hood and doors.

It took the game eight more years to finally get released, but as of yet, there has not been a mid-engine ‘Vette sold to normal humans.

Another day, another Grabbag cover, this time it's a pretty good one from Michael Markie:

But who the fuck is Lee Daniels?

Not bad. I'm glad to hear more versions that take cues from the original Duke Nukem 3D version and not the goddamn Megadeth version.

Jack Jackson's cousin, of course.

Anyone have a link to that DN3D sprite/texture folder from Hendricks site?

EDIT: Never mind I found it.

I'd be disappointed if the DN movie isn't as ridiculous as this

So I started playing the Nova Covert Ops campaign for StarCraft II, and in the first mission, which takes place inside a facility and is more of a homage to Metal Gear Solid than anything, there are medical stations where you can heal Nova, and when using one of those after having her pretty roughed up, Nova said, I needed that, which I think should count as a pretty legitimate Duke Nukem 3D reference.

It should be noted that this campaign add-on specifically seems to make a lot of various references including the above-mentioned MGS stuff (there's a critter hidden in a cardboard box moving around at the start of the level for example), and the same level further on becomes a side-scrolling shmup, so I think assuming a reference to Duke3D isn't too far fetched in this context.

I really wanted to listen to 2BWILD.VOC but no one has uploaded it to youtube surprisingly. Anyone knows if it has copyright? who composed that loop and the other bar music one? The list is:

OTHER (DIGITIZED) MUSIC

BONUS.VOC - Huh Huh...You Said Bonus (LJ)
BARMUSIC.VOC - Mortail Wombat (LJ)
2BWILD.VOC - ...Or Not to be Wild (LJ)

GRABBAG.VOC - Grabbag (reprise) (LJ)
MUZAK028.VOC - Grabbag (Muzak Version) (LJ)
MUZAKDIE.VOC - Grabbag (Muzak Death) (LJ)

But no credits that I know. Can we use these on youtube videos if they are monetized? I mean assume the grabag ones are from Lee jackson but not sure about the rest.

Lee Jackson composed all of them (It's what "LJ" stands for in brackets) on his SC-88 or whatever Sound Canvas compatible device he used back in the day. It's an original made for Duke3D.

Just found a short feature about a small scale Duke Nukem 3D netplay tournament that was held by the Russian electronics vendor DVM Group somewhere in 1997:
https://youtu.be/nEBT8IWkW8Q?t=434

This is a part of an episode (aired on 27 April 1997) of a very popular Russian TV programme about video games that ran in the mid-90s. There's nothing particularly interesting in the background narration though. Because the show was aimed at a very wide audience they rarely went into any specifics when covering games, and this report is hardly an exception. The tournament promoted ViewSonic PC monitors as you can see.

Nobody used the mouse. All keyboard.

Yeah, wanted to point this out too but this was still 1997, many players used the default keyboard layout.

Here's another episode of the same show, this time reporting on a larger tournament that took place in Moscow in December 1997:

Some folks are playing with the mouse, but not all of them.

Source - Laura Nardoni - This picture makes me think Shawn Roberts who played Albert Wesker in the Resident Evil films would be an awesome Duke.

The minister of innovation and technology in Hungary said I have a cool background. While it was certainly the least important part of his visit in my office last afternoon, it certainly was the best part for me.

The next generation Corvette is going to be mid-engined and there's a chance it WON'T have a proper stickshift.

You can rip my 2004 Mustang GT out of my cold dead hands. You know what's better than a convertible? A convertible that has engineering so old that certain parts from 1979 will still fit.

FUCK COMPUTERS. FUCK DRIVE BY WIRE. CABLE THROTTLES FOR EVERYONE, LIMIT COMPUTERS TO ECU/ABS/SRS BY LAW AND NOTHING ELSE.

IF YOU NEED TO SPEND MORE THAN $50 ON A CODE SCANNER FOR YOUR CAR, YOU DON'T OWN YOUR FUCKING CAR!

I drove a friend's Tesla that went 0-60 in 2.9 s. I floored it in the neighborhood at 10pm and nobody woke up because the car is dead silent.

How can you look at this beautiful thing and not love electric?
