For me it was

it really was the strippers and kicking the urinals.

That grew old.....

Yet it was what the majority remembers and it is CERTAINLY what distinguished it from other efforts at the time. You are almost alone in playing it for the story.

Like I say, the franchise kinda... missed the whole FPS revolution, so it had nothing else to offer.

you know what Ush? You're an eloquent mother fuker. How long did take you to acquire such discipline and patience involved in writing?

it had some pretty hilarious / awesome weapons... and drinking water to regain health was pretty neat

and the tomb raider knock-off game was fairly entertaining as well

the only problem right now is that the license is in the wrong hands... if they gave it to some of the brighter minds of the industry.. there'd be hoes and toilets for everybody.. win/win situation.. amirite? 😄

The original game had some pretty good action.

I love the XBOX 360 arcade version.

In good hands, the franchise could come back. Either a total reboot, or a game similiar to Serious Sam, or Painkiller.

hey, i liked legendary, so i'll play anything. I'm still trying to figure out why that game is so bad. I thought it was hella fun.

Yeah the old platformer game great times, What was that Manhatten Project like?... because they tried to return Duke back to a platformer game with that one while keeping the new look.

Found out 3D Realms is still around

yes it was reported they closed permantly and speculation they were having trouble for funding...........but a statement this week saying they have'nt closed down and stilll hold the rights to Duke Nukem franchise.
