I see the official/unofficial release date has been extended again into 1st Quarter 2009  Now even if you didn't go to business school you would consider that a bad thing.
But as you went to business school oh wise one please, a product months if not years past its first official release date would be called? Vapourware? Long live Duke Nukem Forever 
Just kidding, we all know its coming, Oleg promised and thats good enough for me

Just the fact that you are all still hanging here and biatch at every chance you get means that you will poney up the $$$ when BOB comes out to buy it... So no arm done as far as 1C is concerned...
Let me tell you a little secret from a VERY WISE guy that did go to business school.... its how you decide if you go forward or not with an investment (or project)... from a financial point of view... its what we call NPV (net present value) analysis... This means that AS OF RIGHT NOW... if the cost of completing BOB is 1$ less then the present value of all future benefit expected to accrue to 1C... BOB goes forward... If not you shut the mother down... Its as simple as that...
As you can see... the further you are down the road... the less costs you have to incure to finish the product hence less chance of it being canceled... Its just BASIC finance. Past costs ARE NOT RELEVANT. Hope you enjoyed this little finance 101 course.
Technicall problem are another issue all together though...
