 I'd really like someone to come out and claim Duke3d is JUST LIKE
 Doom, or ROTT, or that Shadow Warrior is JUST LIKE Duke, even.
 Similar, yeah, but vastly different from each other as well.
 And what exactly is Duke3d a copy of, and what has copied it?
 Not a **** thing.  :)
 *laugh*
 I would like to state for the crowd that the Playstation port of
 Duke is really neat.  Except for the strange preset controller
 configs.  Bad enough trying to put a keyboard game on a PSX pad
 but why'd they have to leave out any option to change the key
 assignments?  The default -and only- configs stink, IMO. :/
 And they seem to have scrapped all of Lee's MIDIs too, which
 makes no sense. 
 Yes, yes, 3DR didn't make the port...  I know.  :)
