Seeing this game on a console and on a cartridge was very impressive back in the day. However, I have to give a special mention to Duke Nukem 64 on the Nintendo 64. Let me state that there is no substitute for the PC version of this game. Duke can use normal weapons, but he also can get his hand on some alien technology as well! Bringing Duke To Console To go with the over the top nature of the game, you have some pretty funky and cool weapons that you can use as well. So, while you are encouraged to go balls to the wall, you do have to think about what you are doing too. It is much more challenging than modern shooters are too. This is getting keys so that you can unlock doors, killing a ton of enemies, and so on. Most levels do have you doing the same thing over and over. However, there is so much charm here that it is impossible not to get into it. The gameplay of Duke Nukem 3D may seem very linear and basic by what we have in a first-person shooter these days.

Shoot First, Shoot Second & Ask No Questions! Duke has a ton of personality and each location which includes such family-friendly places as a porno theatre and a club with nude dancing look great. It works and gives Duke a style that was starting to fade away by the time this game was released. It has been said that this was one of the last first-person shooters that was built around using sprites and not any of that “fancy” 3D polygon tech that was becoming all the rage. Duke's constant one-liners are awesome and make you love him even more. Duke Nukem 3D may not be the most cinematic game, but there is more than enough here to ensure that you help Duke kill aliens so that he can smoke cigars, have a few beers, and bang a bunch of hot chicks. There is a bunch of ugly aliens that are trying to invade and our hero Duke is having none of it. Clearly, Duke is based on the action movie heroes of the 1980s and that is great. What I love about this game and the series, in general, is how self-aware it all is.

He is loud, crude and he is not scared to rip off your head and take a dump down your neck. Even if you have not played any of his games, chances are you have heard of Duke. Today I am having some fun as I go all the way back to 1996 and check out the original badass first-person shooter. You do not get much more tude than Duke Nukem 3D.
