You are blond and like to beat some aliens down to let them know earth ain't for the taking.
Gameplay: Duke Nukem started to break ground in the first person arena that was not done before. You can shoot at the enemies regardless of where they are standing. Before you could only attack enemies that were on the same level as you. Plus the environment in Duke Nukem became more interactive. You could stop and use the bathroom and regain health. Water fountains also replaced your health.
Duke Nukem had some weapons that were similar to what Doom used. Small handguns to big bad alien blasters. Plenty of ammo for Duke to use and abuse if need be in the game.
Graphics: Duke Nukem had well above good graphics. The aliens blew up in Technicolor and as you played through the game you could always find strange things to stop and stare at to test the limits of your monitor.
Duke Nukem was one of the first games that took reflective surfaces and made them usable in the game. Imagine you are about to go around the corner into a bathroom. Thinking everything is okay you step in and are immediately overpowered by hundreds of aliens. In Duke Nukem you can see the aliens in the mirrors so you can take a few out before you storm the bathroom and hopefully make it through.
Sound: Duke Nukem makes a few comments here and there. But overall the game sound is just above average.
Value: If you are into first person shooters Duke Nukem 3D is good addition to your collection. If anything it is a bit different then Doom and some of the newer ones out there like Unreal.
Tilt: Be advised this game does have some adult content. Overall though Duke Nukem 3D is a good shooter. Replay is kind of low but with some cheats you can come back and play the game just about anyway you want too.
