      Duke Nukem rocks!!!

      This is one of my all-time favorite computer games. The game may not be as good as today's 3D shooters like Half-Life and Unreal. This game is still pretty fun to play. This game has everything. Blood, Gore, Destruction, Mayham, and hot women. Everything you want in a video game is in Duke Nukem. Don't forget about the sequels to this wonderful game: Duke Nukem: A Time To Kill, Duke Nukem: Zero Hour, and Duke Nukem Forever. This game rocks!!!

      I give this game 10 out of 10

      Great game especially for 96!

      Rated M for Strong Violence,Blood,Gore,Language and Sexual Content.

      Duke Nukem 3D is the first 3D Duke Nukem game and the third game in the Duke Nukem series.I have not played the first two Duke Nukem games but I have played Duke Nukem Manhattan Project.Duke Nukem 3D changed the series.The first two Duke Nukem games which came out in 1991 and 1993 were just simple platform games.Nothing special.Duke Nukem 3D however changed the series into an ultra violent,profane and sexual horror video game with elements of humor.This game is a lot like Shadow Warrior(which was made by the same creator).Duke Nukem 3D's graphics may seem dated by today's standards but this game will remain a classic in my book.Duke Nukem 3D is about a bad-ass action hero who always scores with the babes who has to save the world from aliens.With funny one-liners and lots of blood and violence Duke Nukem 3D is a game you wont want to miss.

      9/10

      Duke Nukem rocks.

      This review is for the XBLA version.

      Back in the mid 90's, a legend was born; gracing the screens of PC and console gamers alike with his brash, no-holds barred bravado with tongue-in-cheek goodness ever comprised for one of the greatest video game heroes of all time blasting alien scum in the streets of a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles, outer space, and back on Earth. A cultural icon among the brightest corners of the virtual spectrum, Duke Nukem ushered in a new breed of hero at a time when virtually none had any and propelled the hero we know and love into popularity. Now, on Xbox Live, gamers all over the world and newcomers can experience the Duke like they've never seen before with new features such as the ability to "rewind" the game to a previous point, usually when you get killed by an enemy, fall into a bottomless pit, or simply by blowing yourself up, presumably with a rocket launcher or pipe bomb. This feature is really innovative in execution and gives you a bit of strategy. The game is no cakewalk but for seasoned Dukesters, it's a walk in the park. But that's not all. You can also earn achievements by fulfilling certain requirements within the game that unlock a few surprises. Finally, you can play offline or online with your fellow Dukesters for some balls-to-the-wall splattering action with the addition of leader boards for tracking your progress for best times and number of kills. My only gripe is that you can't play in HD mode. I know some people are nostalgic, but I would've loved to see Duke in HD.

      So...is the Duke worth playing again? The answer is YES!!! If you never had the pleasure of playing Duke Nukem 3d back in the '90s and have an Xbox 360, get this game and prepare yourself for one of the funniest, blood-soaked high octane action-packed games of the world.

      Hail to the king, baby!!

      Duke Nukem = Action + Humour + Replayability

      Duke Nukem 3D has all the action of today's video games, coupled with humour, and secrets that keep you searching for hours. With today's advanced computer hardware even a simple system can take full advantage of the features of this game.

      It offers cheat codes, as well as a range of difficulty levels, the easiest being laughably easy, and the hardest leaving sweat stains on your computer room chair.

      I have replayed Duke Nukem 3D many times, always entertained by the humorous endings to boss battles, which I will not reveal to prevent spoiler warnings. All I can say is BUY THIS GAME!
      metallica182182-1

      quite possibly the best game the world has ever seen

      this game itself is a god. it is the emblem of all that is great all all man wishes to accomplish. I still play this game because it is better than all the crap that is out here now. 6 YEars! and they can't make anything better.ANyone who hates this game is challanged in some sort of way.

      • Trivia
        In one of the levels, a female hostage is found trapped in a alien type gel. When you get close to her, she lets out a faint, "Kill me." This idea was sequenced directly from Aliens, le retour (1986). By killing the girl, an alien appears, just like in the film.

        When using pipe bombs, Duke has a detonator button wrapped on his finger. When he has other weapon equipped, the detonator button is gone.

      • Alternate versions
        The Nintendo 64 version, "Duke Nukem 64" removed almost all sexual material. The "Red Light District" level was renamed "Gun Crazy" and Adult stores were changed to gun shops and fast food restaurants.
