It’s tough to pick out finer details resulting in a lot of wandering around trying to find the way forward. That being said it can still be a pixelated mess especially when you get close to things. It’s great to see the enhancements as simply as that. With the simple touch of a button you can flip between the old and new visuals.

All levels have been given a touch-up with even better lighting. Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour comes with both visual and audio improvements.

This time round the game is slightly different from other re-releases, though. Well, on October 11th 2016 it got another port to PlayStation 4 & Xbox One, this one going under the title Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour. To the point where just about everybody who has ever picked up a controller would have played some variation of the original. In between that time 3D has seen port after port after port (even on mobile). We waited 15 years for Duke Nukem Forever and…well…it was a hell of a disappointment. It also came with a hefty dose of controversy thanks to its violent nature and erotic portrayal of women.ĭuke Nukem 3D is remembered fondly but that is where it ends. A seminal release that saw major acclaim, it was praised for its inventiveness, interactivity and risqué humour. If none of this entices you, and you still want to get in on the Duke 3D action, you could just drop $10 on the Xbox Live Arcade version.The first-person shooter, Duke Nukem 3D first released in 1996, is considered to be responsible for the rise of first-person shooters alongside Doom.

Of course if you don't want to set up a kick ass IPX/SPX network, you should be able to find a way to play the game via TCP/IP.

The game is certified to work on Vista and XP, and comes with SMS Ringtones, Hi-Res Wallpaper, the original manual in PDF form and more. Unfortunately playing it in co-op is going to be an exercise in what made PC Gaming great in the era of the 386 - setting up IPX networks! That was sarcasm. For the low price of $5.99 you can be kicking ass and chewing bubble gum with your buddies. The aforementioned Duke Nukem 3D is now available to download via the service. Apogee were the kings of PC gaming back in the mid 90s with such hits as Rise of the Triad, Blake Stone, and of course the co-op friendly Duke Nukem 3D. Classic Gaming download service Good Old Games (GOG) has announced the availability of several classic Apogee titles.
