Originally released back in 1996, Duke Nukem 3D’s crude humor, cocky protagonist, X-rated humor and grisly violence immediately earned it a loyal fanbase, especially amongst teenagers like myself. Fast forward 20 years, and while other classic first-person shooters have evolved over the years, Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour reminds us that Duke’s best years are clearly behind him.
"Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour earns my respect with fluid combat and intricate level design. It’s a fantastic port and a timely reminder of the industry’s past. It showcases the foundations which have propped up the industry for decades, how far we’ve traveled since the post-80s action hero games, and which of the design principles remain useful today," Andrew writes for GF365.
Hail to the king, baby! Duke Nukem’s back and ready to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and he’s all outta gum.
Gaming Boulevard said: This game should be played once in a lifetime as a mandatory thing before playing current FPS games.
