Duke Nukem kicks the XBLA's a** and chews bubble gum on Sept 24th

by Dustin Burg { Sep 14th 2008 at 1:15PM }

Wednesday, September 24th. According to developer 3D Realms, that's the Xbox Live Arcade release date for Duke Nukem 3D. Duke 3D with saved films and a rewind feature! Huzzah! Just keep in mind that this isn't an official Microsoft release date announcement, so there's a 3% chance this release date could be wrong. And as far as pricing goes, that's still undecided, but 3D Realms promises to announce it in "a very short time."

Absolutely awesome. XD I spent many a day playing Duke Nukem 3D when I was a kid. (Even though it wasn't a kid's game. >_>;; Blame the parents!!)
I can't wait for this though. Nostalgia is best when it's paired with a great game.

How about a price tag of free, since I'm POSITIVE everyone has played this game.

Im sure itll arrive by the 24th of sept. Duke Nukem is a very punctual guy.

I might care if it was still a 13 year old circa 1996, impressed by Duke's swearing, in-game strippers, and the superiority of the Build engine over the Doom engine.

I'm not and I don't.

Eh, Duke Nukem is still a challenging FPS with good weapons and good level layouts. Duke himself is relatively funny in a stupid kind of way, but the game was good for important reasons too.

So I'm still interested.

Look at that image of Duke! That boy is gayer than the guy I look at in the mirror every morning! And I should know girls! If this Duke is really nuken' 'em, he is using gaydar to track them! And that's fine by me! I'll be happy to help Dukey-Poo sink his missiles! OOOGA!!
