3D Realms Shuts Down

duke-nukem-forever-3

The end of an era. Today, the game studio behind the Duke Nukem 3D series, 3D Realms, has closed down for good. No more titles will be released, including the vaporware classic Duke Nukem Forever. The reason for the shut down is apparently due to funding for new projects and day-to-day operations at the company. At this point, it’s confirmed, so let’s just take a minute and say a prayer for Duke. We’ll miss ya, man.

Circuit City: Officially Over

We’ve been following the Circuit City bankruptcy very closely. Yesterday, we showed you some of the liquidation “deals” that readers posted around the Internet. Nothing spectacular there, but even less spectacular is Circuit City’s official website. It has no online store now and just announces the closing of all its stores, bankruptcy proceedings and other legal jib-jab. After 60 years, Circuit City is done and all that’s left is for Best Buy to continue raking in the profits.
