Talk: Duke Nukem 3D

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Here is an astonishingly negative review:

The Duke Nukem series (Duke Nukem, Duke Nukem 3D, and Duke Nukem Forever), like Marathon, Descent, Doom, Unreal and Quake are wildly popular games called "shooters." Players move through the world behind a weapon learning to kill and destroy people, monsters, tanks, or aircraft without themselves getting killed. Duke Nukem 3D moves the "shooter" through pornography stores, where Duke can use XXX sex posters for target practice. Duke throws cash at a prostituted woman telling her to "Shake it, Baby" his gun ever ready. In Duke Nukem bonus points are awarded for the murder of these mostly prostituted and partially nude women. Duke blows up stained glass windows in an empty church or goes to strip clubs where Japanese women lower their kimonos exposing their breasts. Duke is encouraged to kill defenseless, often bound women. After Duke kills off some aliens he's ready for sex or maybe he'll defecate on his pile of freshly killed aliens. With real warfare style Duke says, "No man steals our chicks and wins." On one level naked women are tied to columns pleading, "Kill me," "Kill me." George Broussard, the president of 3D Realms, claims fans want the nudity and adult themes. Duke Nukem 3D is available at all Toys R Us, Target and others. This game can be downloaded from the internet, and is available on a variety of platforms. It is rated Mature, which to some parents means 12-years-old or younger. Duke action figures can by ordered online. Action figures are geared for boys under 8-years-old. [1]

Are we sure we need that kind of crap? Was such "criticism" common and well-known enough to deserve a mention? Paranoid 20:40, 8 Jun 2004 (UTC)
