Duke Nukem 3D


Blah blah Duke Nukem Forever. Blah blah massive delay. Blah blah biggest joke in gaming history. We all know the story. We all know the memes. But now Duke Nukem Forever is finally coming out, and after years of cynicism and snark we're just damnably excited to have the big galoot back. Why? Because his previous game, Duke Nukem 3D, was genuinely brilliant.

Behind all the one-liners and strippers (okay, partly because of them), Duke 3D was a groundbreaking, clever, brutal and badass FPS, and one that seriously paved the way for the likes of Half-Life to evolve things even further. Also, it was hilarious. Need a refresher? Always happy to oblige. Just check out our lovingly-crafted tribute video and remind yourself why a knuckle-headed, Bruce Campbell-quoting gun-nut is just so important to gaming.


Games from a gentler age given the sexy, cynical and psychotic modern day treatment.

Sites like ours thrive off listing the most important details in all of gaming culture. Like a lot, I mean. Though, as professionals, we can occasionally get just as discouraged as any reader over another site’s glaring omission. Take for example when we took in Edge Online’s 50 Greatest Gaming Innovations piece from last year. Stealth, cutscenes, bloom lighting - fine... but where are the farts, dammit?!
