If you don't get it, read GameSpot's huge exposé on the making of the game, it explains just how everything went wrong.

I actually bought that game for $5 AND played halfway through. Never did get THE Daikatana though.

LOL! I had that game... It's the only game I know of that's first patch was larger than the install CD. :) I still can't believe they released that game in that state...

At least Daikatana crashed and burned to die a horrible death. DNF just...won't....die...ugh

How can you kill something that has yet to live?

IT DOES LIVE! PC Gamer did a quick review of it in this month's magazine, along with "Prey". Apparently, the team threw everything out in late 2002 and started from scratch using the Doom3 Engine. Most of the gameplay is complete, all that need to be added are new models and textures. Apparently, some of the level design is beyond HL2 quality, and it retains the DN3D style.

Stop saying it's "still in progress" and just drop it.

You guys are gonna look real silly when the game comes out. It's not dead, there *is* still progress being made.

of course, progress has been made since what, 1997?
