Duke Nukem Forever Developers, 3D Realms Shuts down, Where does that leave the game

I'm sure you all know about Duke Nukem Forever, unless of course you have been living in an underground vault your entire life. The game has been in development since 1997 and recently more and more news that the game may actually be released i.e. 2 screenshots were released late last year and one of the devs released news on his Twitter that the game was nearing completion. Sadly though as of yesterday 3D Realms shut down due to funding issues. Now even though most people were skeptical whether the game would ever come out or if it was ever even being worked on at all. I however was not one of those people i was optimistic and thought they would pull some kind of 13 year anniversary next year. Now honestly Duke Nukem Forever has become a long running joke and tons of people know about it, so that is marketing for itself and if it did come out everyone would say, "Oh well i mean i've known about it for 13 years so i have to get it". Even though many doubted it would ever come out, it angers me as it should you that now there is a very good chance it will never come out, EVER. Now that also means the jokes about it will cease now as well. Apparently Take-Two still has publishing rights to the title but still, do we want to play it if it isn't developed by 3D Realms? Hopefully someone will buy the 3D Realms crew soon and the publishing rights because having Duke Nukem Forever in any company's line-up would be very controversial. So what do you think about this whole situation and do you think anyone will ever release this game now?
