This game is about as good as Time to Kill. It controls mostly the same, for better and for worse. Duke still controls like a tank. The gameplay is largely the same. However, there's 3 things that make this a worse experience.

First off, the bosses range from boring to outright tedious. Second, there's several under water levels and, again, Duke moves like a tank. This is worse underwater. Third, the last levels are mostly filled with aliens using freeze throwers who launch a homing enemy at you when you're frozen. You get frozen in about one hit too, making these sections extra tedious.

It's nice seeing different enemies though. Even the aliens look unique. The story feels very Duke Nukem (well when you're not doing busy work, like going to the library). The weapons are mostly good. If you liked Time to Kill you'll probably like this one up until the end. I only rate it so low because 3rd person action games have gotten much better. Back then I'd rate it a 7, fun but far from amazing.
