Nice one... managed to grab it with ten minutes to spare!

#3 Posted 01 October 2010 - 03:35 PM

It still costs too much.

#4 Posted 01 October 2010 - 04:03 PM

Thanks a tonne reaperman! It plays a lot smoother and more enjoyably then I remember, but that's probably because I have a much faster iPhone now, and I was really bored when I got it

Yeah the controls are horrible.

In my opinion, this port is an abomination and ruins Duke's good name. It's a reflection of George Broussard losing touch even with the simple task of overseeing external project developments.

I dotn have an iphone/ipod touch but Ill download this incase I ever get one

:EDIT: Just looked into the files, the Duke3d.grp is in there, I think its the 1.3d one and it runs in eduke32 but the user.con file says its 1.5.... All the sounds are .wav files

What? It's free for a limited time only? I thought they gave up and decided to make it free permanently since no one was going to buy it anyway.

And why the hell did they take out the ingame music?

The reason the iPhone port is shitty is because they are targeting the iPhone users who have never played Duke Nukem 3D but have heard of it. The iPhone people are like "Hey, I'm going to try Duke out so I can pretend I'm all hardcore and oldschool", play it and find out it's shit (the port not the game, but the port will make them think the game is shit) and go back to the even shittier Call Of Duty Zombies. 3D Realms doesn't care about the reputation of the franchise, they don't own it anymore and besides iPhone users aren't going to rush out and buy DNF over Tap Tap Revolution 3 or Bejeweled 8 anyway so there's no loss of sales. (A more fun but completely fake theory would be that 3DR is sabotaging the port on purpose to intentionally give Duke a bad name because they're jealous that Gearbox is actually a company who can do good things with the franchise.)

It's just a quick, lazy and dirty cash-in game, no need to be upset over it. Besides, who wants to play Duke on a portable anyway? If you want to play Duke and have access to a computer, than it's useless. Tetris and it's ilk are better time-killers so it's useless in that department too.

About the only thing it IS useful for is to gloat to your friends about having Duke on the iPhone, and having them get jealous for all the wrong reasons. And the game actually seems to do pretty well in that regard, so mission accomplished!

Hey I know, let's have a race to see who can finish the game first

Haha. I'm on E1L3 getting those jumps through the vent and up to the stage were killer in Red Light District. >_> Christ I can't wait until the spinning gears in Death Row.

Edit: Made the Death Row jump first try. Killed the trooper, got the RPG, went to hit the open button to get the keycard, but was one pixel off. TAPSHOOT RPG SHOT TO THE WALL DEAD...sonofabitch. Got it the second time around though haha.

Well I haven't killed myself that way... yet. I just got the red key card in toxic dump

Edit: I'm up to the abyss. I'm pretty annoyed though because I hit the secret level nuke button and it seemed to end the episode instead of taking me to spaceport. I then went back and rushed past all the atomic healths and ammo to get where I am now. I thought spaceport was a good level and I can't believe they didn't put it in.

Haha, jesus how fucking awful. I'm pretty certain that's a bug rather than a deliberate decision.

EDIT: Yep, Launch Hanger is in the GRP, though it's the only secret level that is. The others episodes have the secret levels ripped out of them.

Don't tell me I got the name wrong :'( Anyway it makes sense to strip the others, I found them boring even on the PC, and wel... I couldn't finish half of them...

And I've progressed one more level

Edit: how do you extract the GRP?
