I was initially skeptical when Gearbox announced that they were releasing it (I figured they had just scrapped most of what was there and built their own game), but apparently 9 ex-3D realms employees formed their own micro-studio (Triptych) and continued development from their homes until they could muster support from Gearbox to help polish and build the console ports. So far Gearbox/2K has also done a great job of marketing so they will probably see a nice ROI for saving DNF.

Well that's actually really good to hear. I have a lot of faith that Gearbox can bring the desired level of polish. With the ex-3DR employees on-board this game will probably be pretty faithful to what they had originally wanted to release. Good news!

So it's still developed for the PC and ported to the consoles instead of the other way around? GBX's shoddy pc port of that RPG shooter makes me wary...

Borderlands? Seems to be a solid port to me.

Obviously the delays were intentional to accomplish something no other development studio ever has or ever will again.
