Duke Nukem Predicted Blu-ray Victory (Audio)
by Jonathan Zungre on February 29, 2008
Well it seems that Duke Nukem does all things well, and that includes predicting who would win the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD war.
The Duke Nukem Forever trailer that we all saw back in December was originally part of a present to everyone who worked at 3D Realms for their Christmas party. What they didn’t show us non-employees was a four minute audio clip that played after the trailer that had Duke talking to the people at 3D Realms.
His speech was filled with inside jokes, the most notable being Duke predicting who would win the Blue-Ray/ HD-DVD war, in order to put one HD-DVD loving employee in his place. And Duke Nukem, my friends, is never wrong. Click on the link below to hear Duke’s thundering prediction made last December.

“Blu-ray discs, yeah that’s right! Bue-ray, the true future of high definition, and you know it!” - Duke Nukem, December 2007
Also of note, 3D Realms says that the guy who does Duke Nukem’s voice is named Jon St. John. That can’t be true, can it? That seems as cruel as being named “Duke Nukem”.
