UMBCast 031 - Duke Nukem

This week we talk about the long running Apogee/3D Realms series, Duke Nukem. In the news: E3 week! We heard all about the new XBox One and PS4, in addition to iOS 7 at Apple's WWDC. Busy week in the tech world! A few weeks ago, Tim Schafer's DoubleFine Productions has launched its second Kickstarter campaign for a tactical strategy game called Massive Chalice. A remake of Shadow Warrior appears to be in the works from 3D Realms for release this fall. In mobile news, I am totally obsessed with Ron Gilbert's Scurvy Scallywags. Check it out. Interplay repurchased the Descent Freespace IP from now defunct THQ. maybe a new Freespace? Hmmm... Then we talk Duke Nukem. I cover Duke 1, 2, 3D and a little about Duke Nukem Forever. Story (such as it is), gameplay, tech focus, dev story, all of it!
