I hadn't played this version back in the days. I was fine with the PC version and none of my friends had it ; so nobody to lend me the game.

When I bought the remaster of the Duke Nukem I & II on Evercade, I look at that PlayStation version like a curiosity which I'll launch once just to see...

Gosh ! Nukem is still the Duke !

Ok we have the Megaton and Anniversary world tour versions to continue to play this cult Duke Nukem 3D in a cosy way. But played it with PS pixel is a true and enjoyable time travel. The game seems a bit harder, and the unreliable frame rates make it a challenge by itself.

I was surprised to enjoy playing it so much. This Playstation Duke Nukem 3D is far from be able to claim to be the best version, even a simply really good one. But there are some good : bonus episode, musics...and, to be honest, the original game is so good that even a lower version worth a try. And no doubt that for those who couldn't be able to play it on PC back in the days, there was much fun in it. Time makes me look with a tender regard at this mis-love Duke.
