Story:Duke Nukem is the debut of the world’s greatest wise-cracking, alien-punching, gun-toting badass - a man who would later go on to combine both ass-kicking and bubblegum in a revolutionary way. In a world ravaged by Dr. Proton’s villainous ambitions, the original video game action hero must rise against the evil scientist’s army of sinister Techbots. And although Duke isn’t exactly what the Doctor ordered, he’s exactly what the world needed.Show more

This needs to be dragged from the greasy fingers of Randel S. Pitchford III, it is a part of gaming history and deserves to be preserved, it isn't much but it was our first introduction to the Duke and lets not let Duke Nukem Forever be the last thing the character is remembered for.
The very first game that started a legend that would be known as Duke Nukem. Sure Duke 3D was a game changer that made the character recognizable by many, but the first Duke Nukem game is just as important since it is part of the main series. Duke shows off his one-man army capabilities for the first time against the evil Dr. Proton and his techbot army in this simple easy-to-play 2D side-scroller shooter. I especially found it hilarious how Proton would communicate with Duke via TV screens throughout the game. The levels allow for full exploration to find keys, powerups, and other secrets that can rack up big points for the high score like collecting the red balloons. Duke's legacy deserves to be forever preserved for future generations of gamers to enjoy and learn about the history why Duke was, and always will be a true king in gaming.
OG Duke Nukem was a very cool platformer, with large levels to explore, densely packed with secrets and traps. While not the most sophisticated, it was a blast to play and while I have it already here, I find extremely narrow-minded, unjust and unfair that Randy had Duke removed from pretty much everywhere but steam and gatekept the remasters of Duke 1 & 2 for the Evercade.
Duke deserves his spot on GOG back, keeping him out of here is plain absurd.
I could play a remaster of this game for Evercade consoles. I really enjoyed it and wish my friends could play it too, even if they don't have a niche console.
It's a bit of a different vibe to Duke Nukem 3D or Forever. It's very plastic and it's meant to be. And at the same time it's pleasantly playable even today.

Paul Jackson of the Marines 1st Force Recon and Sgt. 'Soap' MacTavish of the British 22nd SAS Regiment.Action Warfare Stealth

WolfensteinWolfenstein is the direct sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny/Wolfenstein RPG. It featured a "re-imagined" disguised dark-haired B.J. Blazkowicz, retaining the unshaven look seen in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and dressed in civilian clothes rather than his usual military uniform.
The game mainly consists of the player shooting his way through hordes of different types of Nazis, ranging from normal soldier to ninjas. To deal with the large amount of enemies, the player has access to many typical WWII-weapons like the German MP40 or K98 rifle. In addition, during the course of the game he finds the medallion and learns four powers. While at first entering the Veil only allows him so see enemies more clearly and use strange flying creatures as bombs, he is later able to slow down time, surround himself with a protective shield or make himself stronger. However, the medallion's powers drain its energy, which needs to be refilled at power-spots that are nearly invisible in the real world.Open world Action Fantasy Historical Science fiction Stealth
