This has got to be a joke or a dream or something.

A buddy of mine was at PAX this last weekend, said the booth was horseshit. Gameplay videos, posters, a bunch of security guys, and two jackasses that didn't know a thing about the game.

From what I heard, Duke goes into a fit of rage and becomes stronger, faster, etc and if he doesn't build his ego back up in time, he dies.

Sounds like Duke Nukem has extreme emotional insecurity.

I don't really play console games, allthough I do have a PS3, but I would play Duke Nukem forever on it for sure. The memories that game brings back , love it!

I'm shocked that people give a fuck. I'm just paying attention because I want to look at another over-hyped franchise crash and burn.

But the 90s blond killing machine look will be fresh and new unless they make him into a space-marine.

I never actually played Duke Nukem 3d.
Is it freeware yet?

I'll be a bold and selfish prick and say that if you haven't played Duke Nukem 3d during the 90's than you aren't a true DAC'er.

Torrent it, Snake

I have it, but I cannot play it, clearly because I am an OS thats 15 years newer.

What mods and whatnot are required to run it?

Neither have I actually. The times I tried it earlier it used to crash on my computer. So I stoped giving a fuck. I guess running it in Dos Box would do it today but who cares?

I used to play Duke Nukem 2 though, and no not even that 2D sidescroller is freeware yet. Can't blame them though considering they were milking people they KNEW for 13 years. Wouldn't they mik us?

Still I'm actually buying the hype, despite knowing it's hype. I'm excited. I like Duke, I like everything about duke that I have read or seen. I've even seen a large part of the game considering I've watched speed runs.

Still...Duke ain't got shit on the space marine. Not a thing.

I guess DosBox would do wonders?

Actually, assuming you're running on Windows, the trick is to right click on the exe, open Properties > Compatibility. You can then choose what level of OS to run the executable on.

I thought Duke was a Dos game, can't do any Dos shit on Windows without DosBox, mate. It's the only Dos program I'm aware of.

Pretty sure Atomic Edition was primarily a windows release.

It might have been, but I found a torrent that auto configures it to Windows.

Playing now, kinda fun with a bit of nostalgia, still remember where all the secrets are on the first map.

I found the same one, but the controlls and the colours are seriously messed up.

Isnt there some patch to make the game look better?
I think st:toxic played with one at some point.

Yeah I had this one downloaded I think and that's the one I couldn't get to run as a kid. But running the Dos version in Dosbox is always a safe bet I assume.
