Microsoft, 3D Realms and Duke Nukem
By: Alan Ng | May 11, 2009 | 1 CommentFollowing on from the recent and sad news that Duke Nukem creators 3D realms have closed, it has been speculated that Microsoft are planning to buy out the company and release further titles exclusively on Xbox 360.
The BitBag have brought up a few interesting facts for gamers to ponder about. The first is about Microsoft and how they gained rights to publish Duke Nukem 3D exclusively on Xbox Live. It wasn’t a straight port either as they offered new content while adding online deathmatch support.
Then they state that on May 6th, the 3D Realms website went down, only to come straight back up a day later. This has led to speculation that Microsoft have purchased 3D Realms and that they might have something big to announce at E3 next month.
