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

What the ^#$& are you gonna do with nothin' but a PC on an island all by
yerself!?!  Where are you gonna plug the d@mn thing up anyway!?!  Yer
@$$?  Oh, yeah, I bet you'd like that wouldn't you?  And another thing,
don't take other people's word for it!  I think it's kind of ignorant to
make a judgement on a game you've never played, and then say it's better
than another game.  Also, excuse me, correct me if I'm wrong, but of 
course Duke3d can't compare to a classic game like Doom.  Tell me, 
how long has Doom been released and how long has Duke3d been released?
Doom was wonderful for it's time.  Revolutionary.  A breakthrough in 
 game engines, but that time has come and gone.  Doom will forever remain
a favorite in my mind, but Duke3d has made many leaps and bounds over 
Doom.  I must admit, I still revert to playing Doom every once in awhile
for nostalgia's sake, but Duke3d IS a better game.  Since you like Doom
better, and are entitled to your opinion, why don't you get out of this 
and go to the Doom conference.  You'd probably feel much more at home 
there, and sure as H*ll won't get flamed like you surely will (have?) 
here.
