Rumor: Duke Nukem Forever viral video campaign?

3DRealms' Duke Nukem Forever has been in development for what seems like... forever. Joking aside, we found this video floating around in the web which is allegedly part of a viral video campaign for the game.

In this bloggers' humble opinion, this video posted by RedShirtSpeaks on YouTube looks professionally done and the voice acting was spot on. If this were just a fan made video, then we applaud the skills of the one who made it. However, we can't discount the possibility that this was released by 3D Realms as a sort of herald that Duke will be arriving this year.

We're sure you're probably itching to see the video now to make your own judgements. Here it is. I'd like to end with a quote from Duke Nukem 3d that you'll be hearing in the video: "Long live the King baby!"

Come on, QJ!

Aaaaaw... how lame are you guys on QJ?! It's more than obvioulsy a fake. Well made... indeed... but just a fake. On the other side... no one ever said that this would be some kind of "teaser"... except QJ. The voice-samples are (mostly) from "Duke Nukem - Manhattan Project". All images on that matrixed-video-wall are old or recently released material. Do you guys really think 3DR would promote DNF with a bunch of _OLD_ images rendered on a few virtual monitors?!

Oh come on

Seriously, No new screens. Looks like it was made in powerpoint. I feel sorry for 3DRealms if this were a real trailer. Good thing it is most certainly fake.
