Duke Nukem Critical Mass cancelled!

DUKE NUKEM CRITICAL MASS CANCELLED!

What a surprise!

http://frontstudios.com/downloads/FRONTLINE_Q42010_NEWSLETTER.pdf See page 5 for the details. Or lack of them actually.

Apogee deserves a big slap in the face for treating us like this. Leaving the fans out in the dark with no info at all only have us discover the cancellation like this.

The PSP verision probably is, but the DS version doesn't seem to be cancelled.

I go this reply from Deep Silver today... 2-21-2011.

My question was for information regarding the status of Duke Nukem Trilogy for DS and PSP, and the PSP answer was obviously left out.

Still interesting.

Hi John,

Duke Nukem: Critical Mass is expected to ship for the Nintendo DS in just over a month. We will be announcing the official release date in the next two weeks.

Best regards,

Jon

Awesome... I hope it makes it.  I hope it is good.  I hope they make the PSP version... and I hope they continue with the Duke Nukem Trilogy for both systems and make millions. :)

This is actually very odd, according to that Deep Silver e-mail you got the game is called "Duke Nukem Critical Mass" but according to the Facebook page of the developers it's called "Extraction Point: Alien Shootout". Are we talking about 1 game having 2 names or 2 different games?

Me is confused.

The game is on the books as Duke Nukem: Critical Mass according to a commercial supplier I am in contact with.
There is no Extraction Point Alien Shootout shown on the books.

We shall see.

Yep... this is all terribly unprofessional. :(
I trust what the Deep Silvers representative told me... but Apogee is shameful.

***edit***
Unprofessional can work against you sometimes... sometimes you draw unwanted attention by being unreliable and unprofessional... and irritate the wrong people.  Grrr...
Lets see how long it takes them to wake up from this one...
