3DRealms kills Duke mod

Posted on Wednesday, 26 January 2005 by Speed, source: Gamesindustry.biz
Some time ago we reported that a mod team had started working on a Half-Life 2 mod that would bring Duke Nukem 3D to the Source engine.

Now, Gamesindustry.biz is reporting that in a not so unexpected move, 3DRealms has shut down the project

Fans working on the mod were informed by the company that it does not allow any of its intellectual property to be used in conversions or mods for other game engines, forcing the project to be shut down.

Maybe it would be a good thing for 3D Realms to create a HL2 mod of Duke Nukem 3D themselves. At least it wouldn't take as much time as a full game and we would in fact actually get to see something Duke-like again from them !
