The Duke himself has all but confirmed Duke Nukem Forever in a recent panel discussion about newest gaming news at MAGfest. A fan asked Jon St. John, the voice of Duke Nukem, about the status of the mythical game. “I’m not allowed to speak on that subject, sir,” St. John explained. “He’s asking about Duke Nukem Forever, let me go ahead and tell you right now that I’m not allowed to talk about Dukem Nukem Forever. The crowd of course groaned in disappointment to the statement, to which St. John facetiously responded, “No, no, don’t be disappointed. Read between the lines. Why am I not allowed to talk about it?”

If you watch the video shown after the break, you’ll understand that there’s a subtle (or maybe less subtle than intended) undertone implying that the game is still in the works.
