Duke Nukem Forever, a game long dismissed as vaporware, materialized in a big way at last week's Penny Arcade Expo. In a lavish surprise unveiling, Borderlands' Gearbox Software announced that it had taken over development of the game, which had been in development at the quasi-defunct studio 3D Realms since 1997.

According to Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, Gearbox has also bought the Duke Nukem intellectual property outright and will develop all future installments in the franchise.
Not only was Duke Nukem Forever unveiled at PAX, but it was also playable in demo form on the show floor....Who was there: Washington DC-based nonprofit advocacy group Public Knowledge staff attorney Michael Weinberg and director of outreach and new media Mehan Jayasuriya.

What they talked about: Legislation and public policy probably aren't what's on most gamers' minds at 9 p.m. on a Saturday night, but that was just the topic during Public Knowledge's "primetime" 2010 Penny Arcade Expo. Specifically, Weinberg and Jayasuriya were on hand to discuss freedom of the Internet in a panel titled "Game Over: Why the Future of Gaming Depends on Net Neutrality."
Jayasuriya kicked off the panel by giving a broad overview of what, exactly, the phrase net neutrality refers to. Saying that late Alaskan former senator Ted Stevens wasn't...

Indie developer Firehose Games was busy recruiting people to jump in and play its upcoming PlayStation Network game, Slam Bolt Scrappers. Described as a combination of Super Smash Bros. and Puzzle Fighter, you and up to four friends can either team up and play through the campaign or split off into teams of two...

GameSpot editors Tom Magrino and Shaun McInnis team up with editor-in-chief Ricardo Torres for a PAX 2010 day-one daily wrap-up.
PAX may not quite be on par with E3 when it comes to major game announcements, but it’s still hard to get through the weekend without seeing a few new titles in the headlines. One of the more interesting reveals from the show thus far has been Ubisoft’s unveiling of Outland, an artistic platformer from the developer behind Super Stardust HD. Outland combines retro 2D platforming with a number of elements from shoot-'em-ups--most noticeably a light-dark dynamic...

Sony is showing off Eat Them, a new PlayStation Network action game, at this year's Penny Arcade Expo. The game is being developed by European developer Fluffylogic, who last worked on Savage Moon and owes a bit to the arcade classic Rampage as well as to Sony's own War of the Monsters. We had the chance to try out a very early version of the game, which has a nice retro feel to it.
Eat Them documents what happens when...
A sinking ship would definitely rank up there as one of the worst places to be left in and have to fight for survival. Usually if you're fighting aliens, zombies, or ghosts, you have some sort of weapon or at least an open area to keep your back against. However, in Hydrophobia, we started out with having to scramble to another level just to ensure we had enough air, and when we were faced with terrorists, all we were given was a tiny stun gun. Thankfully, you're not limited to the stun gun for the rest of the game, but with limited...
