 neopreacher: Duke Nukem... (Ripped from Wikipedia)
Duke Nukem 3D is a first-person shooter developed by 3D Realms and released on January 29, 1996 by Apogee Software, featuring the adventures of Duke Nukem, based on a character that had appeared in earlier platform games by the company: Duke Nukem and Duke Nukem II.
Duke Nukem 3D is mainly notable for the often crude humor it introduced into what had previously been a fairly humorless genre, including a stream of one-liners (heavily inspired by Ash Williams and John Nada) from the title character.
Duke Nukem Forever last made a public appearance at the E3 of 2001, where a video trailer of the game was released, citing again the "When It's Done" release date.

 The Apogee FAQ: Section [2.8.5]: Duke Nukem and Duke Nukem II
The original spelling for the name was "Duke Nukem"; however, during the code fix stage between v1.0 and v2.0 of the original game, Apogee found a character overseas named "Duke Nukem" that was thought to be copyrighted.
So, for v2.0 of the original Duke game, the name was changed to "Duke Nukum." Then, during the programming of Duke II, it was discovered that the character they found overseas was not copyrighted after all -- and so the original name was reinstated.
The spellings "Duke Nuke 'em," "Duke Nuke'um," "Duke Nuke'm," "Duke Nuk'em" and other variations are not, and were never, correct.
