Talk about living in the past. This Duke is so ... it isn't
funny. In the User's Guide, they pretend that their using the
old technology (the so-called platform sideways style) is a trip
into nostalia land. And Duke's narration/comments sounds like
they lifted the entire speech file from Duke NukeM 3D. Not to
mention that they changed what keys to use for action. If you're
used to playing other games that use keyboard input, it's
gonna take you a couple of days to get used to the way they
laid out the keyboard. Don't waste your money on this one.
Disappointing =(

As a fan of Duke from the beginning I was a little disappointed by this release. Seems like in 2002 we could ask for better...... Come on, a side-scroller with poor graphics and no network play? Thats so dated. I have a P3 not a 486. Soured by this experience I anxiously await the Duke Nukem Forever release of the "Real" game. Out in.....forever.

Side scroller, no 3-D. The first Dukes were much better. Save your money for Doom III. You'll find my copy of DNMP on eBay in a bit.

Real Lame. "Earth Worm Jim" is a better buy. Worst Duke Nukem game ever.

Outstanding game!!!! Brings back the old school engine yet keeps the game in a sophisticated and up to date 3D environment. Definitely a must have for ALL gamers! Looks great and Duke still has all his kick [butt]lines and attitude. You can scale building and do really cool jump kicks too. One of the best games released this year!! GET THIS GAME!!!!!
Duke Nukem is coming back!

Duke Nukem Manhattan Project is a great game! It has everything about Duke Nukem that I remember when I use to play when I first started playing the old Duke Nukems. It has all the cool weapons and the graphics are great. I can't wait for Duke Nukem Forever, from what I saw of the trailer that came with the game it looks great the graphics and gameplay look awesome it deffiantly keeps you interested in Duke Nukem. This is a must have for any Duke Nukem fan or any person!

First of all, I didn't like the side view perspective. I always like the first person perspective of past Duke episodes. This reminds me too much of Super Mario Nintendo type games, which I hate. Second, you can't move but right or left in many parts of the game. That even reminds me more of Nintendo games. The old DN games gave a freedom of movement feel, which, to me, seemed more realistic.The graphics are very good, a big improvement over the old graphics, but I like the underwater effects and FP style of the earlier installments.
Great to have 2D games.

Unlike some of the children that have written thier views on 2D and the only genre they know, 3D, it is my opinion that 2D games still have life. It is of course where 3D games were originated. I wouldn't expect a child to understand the difference between the two and the special advantages 2D games have over 3D games. This title is a seriously good game. It has the nice graffics that a 2D game offers and game-play. It is a solid product.

I grew up playing Duke Nukem. 8 years old kickin alien ass and takin names. 17 years still playin the same old stuff. Duke Nukem is an instant classic for all true video game players. Duke Nukem Defines video game enjoyment. It goes along the same lines as Doom does. With the release of Doom3 and Quake4 it is time for a DukeNukem game for the Next Gen of Gaming 2006! Look at the progress that Doom took...from old school dos...to new school XP. Duke Nukem is a MUST HAVE for all gamers out there. Manhatten Project goes back to the roots of the classic side scrollers, with some newer enhanced graphics. It is highly addictive to play. So, BUY THIS GAME!
