Here's a little anecdote for you; in the mid to late 1990s, a website that had developed a cult following on the burgeoning internet was known as "World Wide Web Fights", where internet geeks would use their useless pop culture knowledge to determine who or what could win in a mock fight. Duke Nukem was put into a contest against Lara Croft, and the consensus picked... Duke Nukem. Considering that Land of the Babes was used to tie into the popularity (the waning popularity, though; this is 2000) of the Tomb Raider franchise, and this is right around the beginning of the Duke Nukem Forever fiasco, I thought I'd bring up this useless nugget.
I remember absolutely loving this one and Time To Kill, playing both games over and over again. Spent countless hours with my older brother on Time To Kill multiplayer mode, it was a lot of fun. That level with teleporters, throwing pipebombs everywhere, it was insane!
I remember having this DN in a PS magazine demo that shall remain nameless. I remember exclaiming as I played: "This is nothing but a glorified Tomb Raider with strippers..."
Since your on a Duke Nukem trend, give Vivisector a quick look! The Devs initially started the game out as a Duke Nukem hunting Safari game before everything went tits up. Instead of abandoning the project they reused many assets and created their own IP. Imagine if Far Cry 1 went FULL ON Island Of Dr. Moreau with Assault rifle wielding Doggo's, Electro Hyena's, and flamethrowing Leopards... no, I'm not kidding.
Same. I thought it was pretty fun back when I was a kid, but going back to it as an adult, I saw that it wax pretty bad. However, I still love it, regardless of its many flaws.
Worked at n-Space for years but this was before my time. I remember seeing the huge standing ad of it in the lobby though. This is the first time I've seen the game though. Enlightening!
I know i'm probably a minority, but I loved this game as a kid. Couldn't afford a PC at the time, so this was the first Duke Nukem game I played at home. To be frank, I was impressed by the quality of the videos (babes right? makes a kid feel all tingly) and as soon as I heard "Push it" couldn't think of a better song for a Duke Nukem game (as much as I like "Grabbag", I like "Push it" better). The gameplay, sure is not the greatest, but is enjoyable. I still like the game, after so many years, and I think it still holds up, I finished it a few days ago, again. And the ending, is the right kind of cheesy. The way it's supposed to end a Duke Nukem game. Not even remotely politically correct...just the way I like it. It sits in all its glory, right next to my DN3D retail copy. I wish they'd make more Duke Nukem games.
I think the real problem with the Duke Nukem franchise is that they forgot Duke was supposed to be parody of manly action heroes. We're talking about a character who literally injected steroids as an in-game powerup and kicked a mad scientist's ass just for interrupting his Oprah broadcasts. At some point, be it from hype for Forever or just Broussard's own ego, Duke stopped being a joke and was just played completely straight.
When I was 10 years old, I played Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior demos constantly on my dad's old Pentium III desktop. I saw Duke Nukem on sale for the Playstation and spent my entire year's savings on this game thinking it was the PC version. Boy...was I UPSET. (Got me into Static X. So there's that I guess. :/)
Kinda sad this guy doesnt know Static X enough to know Push It. Probably the most known song by them, though not as good as Lets Start a War or So Cold
I remember watching my dad play this game...when I was like 4. Good thing the graphics sucked enough to obscure the explicit stuff and I was too young to understand.
Yeah, this game looks just as rough as Time to Kill, though it actually used it's time travel theme to change the scenery up every now and then unlike this.
Given how bad all the Duke games after Duke Nukem 3D were, it makes me think that 3D Realms got lucky once and never had the talent to do it again. I blame George Broussard.
It's Hoss... (snorts hairy armpit) aaah, Hoss Delgado! Supernatural hunter! (Shoots a large chainsaw from his crossbow that's attached to his missing right hand... yeah).
The 3 Duke games that about Time Travel, or the "Duke Nukem Time Travel Trilogy" games. funny I won't mind if these games were the remastered, but like tweak the story/lines, gameplay and controls to be a tad modern.
Lol, so this isn’t a good duke game, it’s not funny it’s straight up dark! Having “babes” killed off and a future worse than fallout is not meant for duke. But the game is ok, if your craving a good old fashion tps. Then check it out. But at the same time it’s not the atmosphere you want when. You get a duke game And the static X song is the best part
Static X.... Weird name anyways... Ooooh I remember playing this game and thinking it was the tits.... I was a problematic child, explains a lot now that I think about it 🤔
oh my god, can you even get more dated than a Wazzup reference? It was so bad I wrapped around from cringing to chuckling. EDIT: Oh and knowing Duke's love of extremely dated jokes, Jane's last name is probably Fondle
