Duke Nukem Forever might be coming to iOS devices

Duke Nukem Forever hasn’t even come out on consoles and on PC yet and there is already some fishy evidence pointing to signs of a port for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. What’s the evidence? TouchArcade discovered that Duke Nukem Forever‘s Steam manual includes references to Apple’s “App Store.”

We know, it’s hardly conclusive evidence, but darn it, we’ll take what we can get. The iPad 2 and iPhone 4 are certainly capable little devices powerful enough to handle a nice dumbed-down version of Duke Nukem Forever.

Whether or not developers Gearbox are involved with this reported iOS version is uncertain, but honestly who cares as long as the game rocks all of Duke’s crazy lines and antics? Bring it on.

iOS was once upon a time called iPhone OS, or "operating system", which is the software that provides all the basic device functionality and is the interface between the hardware and applications. iOS was introduced with the iPhone on January 9 2007, and it was originally not intended to be programmable by third parties. Steve Jobs had envisioned that developers could create Web Apps that would run in the browser. This changed less than one year after when the iPhone SDK (software development kit) was introduced in October 2007. Today, hundreds of thousands of apps have been created for this platform. iPhone OS became iOS on June 2010. Interestingly, both iPhone and iOS were former trademarks of Cisco, that Apple now uses under a license.
