It’s time to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I’m all outta gum! We kind of take Duke for granted these days, but this icon of video games got his start here. Duke is the ultimate macho dude. He is clearly inspired by all those awesome 80s action heroes and that is part of what makes him so great.

The story of the game is pretty simple. There is an alien invasion and only Duke can stop it. Duke’s motivations though are also scoring with chicks and pounding some beers! Duke’s one-liners are a major highlight of the game for me. It really does make you laugh. The pop culture references through the game are also a ton of fun. Duke Nukem 3D is one of those games that you can clearly tell the developers were having a great time with it when they were making it. The gameplay of Duke Nukem 3D is rather linear by today’s standards, but I do not hold that against the game.

Each level is kind of the same thing. You need to collect a bunch of keys and kill a ton of enemies. You would think that this would make the game get very old quite quickly. The game though is so much fun that you do not mind how linear it is. The level design is fantastic. You will visit some of Dukes favorite locations such as the XXX movie theatre and the strip club. You will also have to go to more insane places like an alien spacecraft. So, while the actual game is linear, there is so much variety and craziness to the game that you tend to not notice it as much as you would think so.

Duke Nukem 3D is one of the most over the top first-person shooters of its time. Sure, the core gameplay is similar to games like Doom. Doom though does not mate the over the topness that Duke Nukem offers.

The weapons are a lot of fun and all feel fantastic. While you get your standard weapons like shotguns and pistols, Duke also is able to get his hands on some pretty cool and crazy alien tech which is a lot of fun to use as well. My personal favorite weapon is the shrink ray. With this gun, you can shrink down one of those butt ugly Aliens and then just stop on them.

The variety of the weapons is another thing that helps make up for the more linear approach of the overall game. While this is regarded as a pretty big game for the Nintendo 64, the PC version is where it is really at.

The modes may be a little limited in comparison to what a Call of Duty offers, but there is still a lot of fun to be had. While it may be more work than some of you are willing to do, Duke Nukem 3D also has a pretty dedicated modded community. So, if you are into that kind of thing and enjoy player created content. Be sure to dive into it as there are some pretty crazy Duke fans out there. I freaking love Duke Nukem 3D! I really do think that the game is still a lot of fun to play. I do think that it is a product of its time and it clearly is not offering the same kind of experience that a first person shooter is.

However, Duke Nukem 3D is an awesome time and him being so over the top, crude and just generally awesome is a reason why so many people love him to this day. Forget, for a moment, all this wanky “Duke’s better than Quake – No it isn’t” stuff. Duke’s here, Quake isn’t. Quake is going to be a stunning game. But it isn’t here yet. So let’s talk about Duke, shall we? Basically, it’s a great game. It’s inventive, amusing, cool, and it’s very hard. Most of you will probably have already played the share ware version, but some won’t, so here’s a quick run-down:.

It’s a Doom-clone, but better – buildings, for example, are proper buildings, with several floors and huge James Bond-style disappearing computer consoles.

There are outsidey bits, and you can fly about with a jetpack, land on the roof of a building and work your way down through it. You can catch a tube, or go into the sewers and shoot sharks. You can shuttle around space stations with earth in the background.

There are video monitors that you can use to check out your surroundings, and walls that can be blown out completely, allowing access to other areas. There are suspended walkways that can be brought crashing to the ground. There are ventilation shafts that you can get inside and crawl about in, emerging somewhere else.

Most things but not enough of them, some say can be shot or blown up: windows, lights – you can even shoot aliens in the toilets, prompting all the usual “blowing the shit out of them” jokes. It has puzzles and switches that are more hidden than Doom’s, and levels that may get you stuck from time to time, Your character is funny. I won’t quote him too much here, because these things always seem more amusing when you are playing rather than in print, but he does say, during an earthquake, “I ain’t afraid of no ‘quake.

One slight drawback is the mouse aiming system, whereby you can look up and down as you progress, and which had me vomiting copiously after one four-hour session.

A hot Indian dish, if you must know, and yes, it hurt. About the only thing I can think of more likely to induce nausea is a video of Paul Daniels and Debbie Magee having sex. Then there are the extras – two extra episodes, along with loads of in-game stuff like new weapons, some of which show the aliens obviously have a good sense of humour.

Hey, maybe we should just buy them a couple of beers and have a laugh together There are the new enemies: the chainguncarrying Enforcer; the airborne, mechanised death-dealing Sentry Drone: the rocket-firing, gravity-defying Assault Commander and the Protozoid Slimer, which runs up your trouser leg and sucks your brains out something many people would pay good money for.

There are evil bastards who are very hard to get rid of. Plus there’s the level designer, and the facility to convert any Doom wad into a Duke map. Walk into our office at the moment and you’ll see everyone playing one of two games, and other people standing behind watching. One is still Championship Manager 2 – and this is the other.

When it comes down to it, you could be a techno-snob and ignore this and wait for Quake to appear – or you could buy this and have a good time in the interim. It’s easy for reviewers to suggest multiple purchases in situations like this, forgetting that everyone else has to pay for their games.

But in this case. I honestly think Duke is more than value for money. It’s more inventive, and more entertaining, than Doom. I know they’ve had long enough to get it right but so have many others, who’ve tried and failed , and I know that with Quake about to hit us.

Someone in the office said that this looks like a cartoon, and Quake looks real. This is also true, but that doesn’t mean that this isn’t a great game in its own right. We like it a lot. If Apogee don’t make much money on it, they’ll only have themselves to blame. They’ve timed its release really badly: it should have been out six months ago.

But it’s still good. The level editor that comes with Duke is the very one that the designers use themselves, and allows you to edit everything that’s in the game apart from the code that runs the game engine itself. Uau, amazing and fantastic game, Duke Nuke 3D is really a classic , one of the most addictive games, full of details, easter eggs and hidden secrets.

It is possible to play it in a local network and is very, very funny!! Thank you so much!!! But there is no “free look” ind this game? And I cant use mouse? Should it be like this? Would you like to add your comment or game review?
