Duke Nukem Forever is perhaps one of the most exquisite examples of development hell. Development for Duke Nukem Forever lasted what seems forever, with the game finally releasing in 2011 after 15 years in the making.

Duke Nukem Forever is a great example that while more development time is mostly great, it doesn’t always guarantee a good game.
