>>1) Can you tell us what Video Card you guys are currently running it on? If not can you tell us if it is a new video card?

GB: 9800 Pro's, some 6800GT's and some 6800 Ultra's.

>>2) Have you completed at least 70% of the models?

GB:This is hard to say, as a model can be anything from a prop (like a chair, microwave, etc) to the tons and tons of models that go into the levels as architecture to flesh out a level.

A ton is done. We have hundreds of props that you can place in the world, and the artists just continue to pump stuff out.

>>3) Are a majority of your models textured?

GB:We complete them as they go in, so the ones that are done, are in.

>>4) Have all the weapons been programed in and are usable in-game right now?

GB:Yes. In, with animations, sound pass, and final textures. We'll probably add a couple more as we go, and there are some whacky ideas we want to explore, but all the base guns are in and we could ship with what we have.

>>5) Aproximetly how many types of enemies are there?

GB:15 or so, and working on more.

>>6) Is the game divided up into Episodes or just levels?

GB:Levels.

>>7) Is there more then one boss battle?

GB:Yes.

>>8) Is there a Battlelord in this game?

GB:He was a signature bad guy from Duke 3D, so he's be a popular choice to bring back

>>9) Are there any Cameo's?

GB:Not sure what you mean by cameo.

>>10) Who does Joe play the voice of?

GB:Nobody.

>>11) Anyone else on the 3DR team doing voice acting for DNF?

GB:I doubt for final voice work, no. Maybe a couple here or there.

>>12) What do you put on your pizza?

GB:We ordered Dominoe'swhen we were in line for Episode 3 the other day. Got a large cheese, peperoni, and supreme.

>>13) Can you give an example of how interactive DNF can be or is?

GB:Very. You can play with everything.

this interview is shit, have you completed 70% of your MODELS? please... i know people are curious about what is going on but these type of questions aren't even funny.

allright, so it's from a bulletin board, those people should not be allowed to ask questions ever again.

this interview is shit

It's not an interview. He answers questions that posters asked in their forum.

After seeing the PS3 and Xbox 360 he has too go back to drawing board again and bring it out for one of them. Keeping up with the joneses this much can only hurt you.

Actually if you follow the timeline of this game it's pretty interesting. Anticipated - delayed- reworked - anticipated - delayed - travesty- reworked - anticipated - angry mob - butt of jokes - daikatana - one of two best jokes in industry (along with phantom) - lame old jokes - irrelevant. I wonder if George has even noticed nobody cares anymore when its done its done.

It's one of those games that you keep on the back burner in terms of interest... it's there, definetly, but you don't pay it too much mind because it won't be that great and it's not entirely clear whether it actually is just some running joke among 3D Realms. But the interest is there because it's taken so long... so it'll be intresting to see if it blows away people or becomes a poor punchline to a long running joke.
