Just stumbled upon this project:

http://www.dukenukemreloaded.com/features.html

The King is back, baby!

Utilizing the latest and greatest in technology and talent, Duke Nukem is back in Interceptor Entertainment's Duke Nukem 3D : Reloaded -- an Unreal Engine powered remake of the 1996 first-person shooter classic, Duke Nukem 3D. The muscle-bound, smart quipping action hero has returned, ready to kick more ass and chew even more gum.

“Damn! I'm looking good”

A faithful-but-fresh re-envisioning of one of 3D Realms' greatest endeavours, Duke Nukem 3D : Reloaded will invite players both new and old to experience the seminal action-shooter in high-definition. Memorable locations such as Hollywood Holocaust and Shrapnel City will be respectfully recreated with new and exciting vehicular sequences, non-playable characters, scripted events and all-new interactive experiences.

“Get back to work, you slacker!”

Every boot, babe and bullet hole will be made from scratch to take advantage of the expansive Unreal Development Kit. With a team of over 30 people dedicating their own time to the success of Duke Nukem 3D : Reloaded, you can rest assured that Duke will go boot-to-toe with the best of them. And what's more, not a single texture, tile or trimming will be outsourced -- it's all made in-house.

“Who wants some?”

Duke it to the death in multiplayer with classic "Dukematch", "Capture the babe" and a whole host of unique multiplayer experiences. Play as the likes of Duke Nukem, General Graves, Assault Trooper and Pig Cop. And with online multiplayer support for up to 16 players, there's no shortage of ass to kick.

“See you in Hell!”

Get a chance to test drive Duke Nukem 3D : Reloaded in the upcoming multiplayer demo. With 2 multiplayer maps, 7 weapons - including the Ripper, Shotgun and the legendary Mighty Boot - and 4 playable characters, there's no lack of opportunity to provide us with feedback on the forums and Facebook.
 
I smell a lawsuit brewing...

They should finish such mods in secret, release the final version and then cross their fingers.

Edit: I stand corrected, this one is blessed
 
I've been looking forward to this much more than DNF to be honest, but perhaps that's because I'm not looking forward to DNF. Either way, I don't expect to see this released, as these highly ambitious mod teams almost always bite off more than they can chew, and just end up drifting into closure.

Agreed about biting off more than they can chew. How many of these mods have we seen look cool on paper, and die 6 months later?

Especially the annoyingly high-profile ones, like KOTR2: The Sith Lords Restoration Project*, and Half Life: Black Mesa.

*Still hilarious another mod came out of nowhere to do what those guys hadn't done after several years.
 
If this is anything like Black Mesa, we "might" see it in 10 - 15 years. A lot of these remakes sound great, but I rarely see them completed.

Like the remake of the original doom levels for doom 3. The developers got the first map done, and then the team broke up.

Then there is Black Mesa, which has been in development since around December 2004 or January 2005.

lol... Black Mesa, the DNF of mods. What a joke.

Yeah, and it pisses me off a little too, since I never did play through HL1 (it came out when I was in College, and I had a computer I made out of spare parts that I salvaged from various people; nothing that could play Halflife)

I tried Half Life Source when I bought HL2, but I just couldn't get into it. The horrible graphics made my eyes bleed. I find it funny that I can't handle early 3D graphics, but I have no problem playing 20-30 year old 2D graphic games.
