Duke Nukem Forever Delayed Forever. I Mean to June

 
Duke Nukem Forever will now be released on 14th June in North America and on the 10th June everywhere else. It was scheduled to be released worldwide in early May but they seem to have been too optimistic with that date.
 
Whatever is making Gearbox Software delay the game must be significant because of the new date set. Of course Duke Nukem Forever the game is use to delays and such so this should have been expected. At least Gearbox Software seems to be seeing the funny side of things.
