Report from IGN:

You've waited 13 years already, so what's another few months? Reports are suggesting that the comically delayed and subsequently cancelled Duke Nukem Forever has been resurrected, with Borderlands developer Gearbox tasked with taking the project to the finishing line.

Having begun in 1997, development on Duke Nukem Forever had seemingly halted after the game's development staff at 3D Realms were let go in May last year. Due to 3D Realms failure to complete the game it was sued for breach of contract by publisher Take-Two, a matter that was resolved earlier this year.

But that's not where Duke Nukem Forever's story ends, it seems. A report on Kotaku suggests that Duke is alive and that Gearbox would be taking the game to completion. Sources at both Take-Two and Gearbox are remaining tight-lipped, although it wouldn't be the first time that the Borderlands developer was associated with the cigar-chomping action hero; Gearbox was outed as the company behind Duke Begins, a project that was scrapped before it ever saw the light of day.

The reports claim that more could be revealed at September's PAX, and that a playable demo could even emerge as soon as this year.

The story of Duke Nukem Forever is a strange and unique one ? could this be the final twist in the tale? We'll bring you more as we hear it.

I will have to add, I'm going to laugh when it comes out and it's terrible. Graphics look like they're from 1997, everyone goes we waited 13 years for this?

But, most people will be playing it with rose colored glasses anyways.

The game halted development like 2-3 years ago. It's been some time since a development team actually worked on it so it's bound to be a bit dated.
 
The Duke will seriously have 2 up his badassery to top its new competition, otherwise it will be very generic. Its main competition is Bulletstorm, which was heavily inspired by the Duke. Anyway, u always bet on the Duke, so i will.
