Run-n-gun like it's 1990s!

Duke Nukem 1+2, a bundle of two classic 1990s run-and-gun platformers that sparked into a flame of legend, is now available on GOG.com, for only $5.99.

We are not alone in the Universe. In fact, it's swarming with evil alien monsters. The only goal in their existence is to invade our planet, steal our stuff and eat us. Earth isn't doing so well either. Mad scientists hell-bent on world domination. Doomsday devices are a dime a dozen. So, if you were wondering why we're not living under the rule of a crazy scientist and his cybernetic army, or why haven't we been all eaten by aliens--you should know who to thank for all that. Duke Nukem. The bishop of badassery.

Released in the early 1990s, the Duke Nukem 1+2 games defined the standards for the run-and-gun platformer genre on the PC. But not only that. They did much more. They started the career of one of the gaming's most iconic heroes: Duke Nukem. Being great platformers on their own, full of creative level design, exceptional ideas, and tongue-in-cheek humor, they still provide bucketloads of prime entertainment. Before Duke Nukem went 3D, he totally rocked the 2D. Here's your chance to see it for yourself!

Find out why Duke's autobiography was titled "Why I'm so Great", get Duke Nukem 1+2 for only $5.99!

wolfsite: I would love it if they got Traffic Department 2192 on GOG. Played the shareware version of that all the time back in the day. Had a very mature story for the time period.
It is freeware now, so you don't really need to wait.

I know, but still would be nice to have it on GOG.

Oh cool, I didn't know it was freeware. For some reason I was thinking of a different came as Alien Carnage. I wasn't aware it was Halloween Harry, since that's the title I remembered for the game.

Well, you couldn't have been thinking of Xenophage: Alien Bloodsport, right? I mean nobody would want that game, free or not :)

Nice! I thought there wasn't going to be a classic game released this week. Wishlisted.

Don't forget Zombie Wars, which I don't think is owned by Apogee.

KainDrake: I'm glad the games are on gog and I did like them, but aren't these games freeware already? Where's the price tag coming from?
avatar
Nergal01: Hm, I don't know about freeware. Those games have been on sale in 3D Realms' own online store for some time now, for $5.99 EACH, no less.
Well, this is where I got my copies and their shareware episodes. So are they different from the ones on GoG?

Skunk: No, these are not freeware. They were included with the retail version of Duke Nukem 3D, and perhaps they have been available during magazine promos or the like, but I don't know, but they've been sold for years and they're being sold now.

The price tag came from the 3D Realms online store. Actually, that's a lie. The price they charge is currently twice the price offered on GOG, so be grateful.

Roman5: This, though of course, there still will be people who will still complain about the price saying that it's "too much" for these games

I'm very grateful for any 3D realms games that come here and are saved and salvaged from the 3Dreams "Store"
It's not so much that I'm complaining about the price. It's not that. It's just I got them off of here for free, but I don't know if they are different, so if you could tell me if they are, that's be great.

Those are shareware versions, aka: incomplete Demo versions

The ones on the 3Drealms store and GOG are the full games :)

Nice old-school arcade-like platformers. I already own them and they run fine under DosBox.
