Duke's not worried. He's got balls of steel.

 

[alvine]

balls of steel!

Let me guess, "Shake it baby".

 

[zerapio]

Regulas beat me to it

 

[maigo]

refuned or what?

 

[megamanx00]

I wonder if fixing the the control scheme will take

forever

If apple did pull it (and perhaps put it back as ie49589 claims it is back) it wouldn't be a surprise. I'm not even sure why Apple does this as they freely allow games that can easily be considered offensive on the Mac so why are handheld devices any different? It reminds me of their 1984 commercial way back and how they are really starting to become what they claim they were opposed to.

Why buy it?

Download the Hi-Res version for free for playing as originally intended

On your PC

...because many people use their phone as a portable gaming device on flights, while waiting on someone, or on break. Why play simple games like tetris when you can play duke?

Hail to the King, baby!

ie49589 - chill the heck out, man! NuclearShadow didn't implie you lied, dude, he was just quoting you.

I got this a while ago and, like the reviewers say, it is a dog to control. I haven't tried it again since, even though the original game is probably my favourite game in history.

Clearly Apply gave Duke some bubble gum.

Duke3D on iPhone just isn't Duke3D. Even while it looks the same it doesn't feel the same.

classic Duke we've come to love (the old-school gamers, that is),

Maybe you need to go back to school kiddie. Old school Duke Nukem players remember the side scrolling destruction fest.

But keep calling yourself old school.

The problem with computers is that with each new iteration of OS or hardware, the old stuff gets lost. All our records on 5.25 floppies and Bernoulli 100mb drives are inaccessible these days. Games like Duke Nukem 3d won't work on WinXP systems. It's awful.

Somehow though, Duke 3d has lost its charm. Far Cry and Call of Duty have really ruined my perspective of what a good game is. I can't go back to Duke 3d and say it's an awesome game in this day and age even though I absolutely loved it when it was released.
