Duke Nukem will not be out in January

Rumours have been flying about the web that the game was due to be in the shops in January 3. Duke Nukem:Reloaded is probably the most delayed computer game in history.

However according to a statement posted on the developer's website the rumours are "total lies".

A spokesDeveloper for 3D which is making the game said that the rumour probably started because some store had published a release date and some hack thought they "had the scoop of the century".

Fair enough. Getting the skinny on Duke Nukem coming out would be the software equivalent of finding Lord Lucan riding Shergar through the High Streets of Atlantis.

However the SpokesDeveloper said that when the game is ready to be released the news will "find you" which is more than the game ever did.
