I'm sorry, but unlike everyone else here, I'm not completely blown away by this release. If they had included some of the semi-official expansion packs (the Sunstorm Interactive Duke Caribbean: Life's a Beach, Duke it Out in D.C. and Duke Xtreme; the WizardWorks Software Duke: Nuclear Winter and Duke!ZONE II) or even the original Duke Nukem I and II, then this might be something to celebrate. As it is, it looks as though Apogee is taking the easy road with this release. Besides, if they were able to get Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project out of the 'legal hell' created by the bankruptcy of Sunstorm, then surely there is no reason why they cannot get the expansion packs for D3D developed by them as well. I just can't help but compare this release to the Redneck Rampage pack, which includes Redneck Rampage and Rides Again, plus the Sunstorm-produced Suckin' Grits on Route 66 AND the Cuss Pack, plus a bunch of extras, for only $6.
I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade; in fact, I'm excited by the prospect of being able to play all the old Apogee classics again (legally, this time around). However, I just think Apogee should be aiming higher, rather than trying to capitalize on people's nostalgia in order to make a quick buck.
well, in my case I'll wait few months and see if they bring expansion packs and Duke Nukem 1 & 2, if not, that sucks. => "wait & see" ? :)
Of course, if they had released Duke Nukem I, II, 3D + all expansion pack for 6$, it would have been much better, but I don't think a company can be so awesome, they have to make money, they want money.
GoG never said "we're gonna sell complete game series pack for less than 10$", not yet.
Indeed, GOG always add bonuses. I guess we can expect some free stuff (music, add-ons) for the days/weeks/months to come? :)

Here's hoping ;)
I guess I should add that I'd be willing to pay extra (actually, pretty much anything they asked) to be able to play Caribbean and D.C. again. Damn those were good add-ons, right up there with Route 66, Cryptic Passage and Wanton Destruction. Sunstorm made a lot of crap, but they also made a bunch of killer expansion packs!

Maybe they will add the expansions later on. GoG please add the duke expansion packs to this already awesome offer. :)
GOG done a great job turning Duke Nukem Atomic into a very playable game. So im realy hoping for the expansions to release cause im gonna buy em all once again >< Got all the originals but a pain to get working properly;P
