According to a Duke Nukem fansite Duke4.net. Epic Games was apparently among the studios approached by the now-defunct 3D Realms to try to secure $5 million in funding to finish Duke Nukem Forever.George is said to have previously went to iD Software and Epic in an attempt to make a deal with funding for them, but was turned down.
