I know what you mean. Duke just didn't have any 100% fresh elements in 
it. I looked as lots as the features as gimmicks. If I were stuck on a 
desert island...no, make that a tropical island. Anyways, if I were 
stuck on a ISLAND with a pc and a choice for the only game I could play 
being between doom and duke3d I would choose doom. Duke's charm is 
short lasting and doesn't make up for a classic game (an iD game in 
this case). I've heard my friend say that the beta version of quake was 
already better than duke 3d. Even though I haven't even played quake 
yet, i am 100% percent sure it is better than duke nukem 3d. Duke Nukem 
wasn't even that cool in the first place.
