Same here. Except for those extremely boring sports games that all look the same. To be honest, I just skip through them and only look at the beginning and the end.
What made me addicted to this game on N64 was the fact that I could split screen co-op with my lil bro at the time when i was a kid that was the coolest shooter, to finally stop killing my brother and allow him to fight side by side with me killing aliens lol
It wasn't a bad port, just turned down to PG. They actually added some cool new weapons and levels for the N64 version. I loved the Turok-style controls most N64 FPS games used. As someone who has played this same game on the PC, N64, GBA, Switch, etc over and over for the last 25 years, I think you were making it too hard trying to aim so directly at enemies above or below you. The Z-plane wasn't really a thing for the original game. You can shoot like 10 feet below an enemy in the air, as long as it's the right direction, it will still hit them.
Love the video by the way! Excited to see you play through my old favorites. Can't wait for Turok 2, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon and Duke Nukem: Zero Hour.
Yeah, you can change control scheme in this game. Oe of them works especially well on the Hori mini pad controller because the D-pad to change weps/items is right next to ur thumb.
I've always felt that the N64 levels were better than the PC ones. The PC ones feel a bit bare bones at times because what they usually did was dissect some levels from PC and then attach the parts in sensible locations for the N64 versions. The secret levels on N64 also seamlessly blended into the main levels if you pay close attention. The ammo types were really cool and the grenade launcher was way more interesting and fun too use than the RPG from the PC version and you still get a proper rocket launcher later with different mechanics. Only thing the N64 version really lacks is the freeze thrower.
Not enough good things can be said about the narration dialogue you have for every N64 game video that you've put out, I know it has to be so time consuming, speaking as a viewer who hasn't missed a video in this series, I (like i'm sure many others) appreciate and respect your work, Great work Thab and editor!!
Not only that but game design doctrine for FPSes at the time was likely set by John Romero's precedent for Doom. He made all the other levels for the game first, then went back and made the first episode so that they would be the best levels, and episode 1 is indeed considered to be the best by most players.
I remember in co-op that there was a chance for a monster to ONE SHOT YOU! (didnt matter what difficulty) i remember it was in hotel hell and a flying monster shot from above insta killing my friend! and one time i was put to 1hp from 200hp from one shot! idk if its like rng or just a sneaky co-op thing.
This is totally wild. So 1997 was long enough ago that I could barely read when this game came out (bless my mom for letting me rent it from blockbuster anyway). So I had absolutely no idea it measured the babes and secrets you discovered, it was just another wall of incomprehensible text that I clicked through. Lmfao😂. The other "literally illiterate children" that I played this with used to just pass the controller back and forth amongst one another while we tried desperately to figure out what was going on 🤣. When one of us figured out that you could pee, we did it every time we played the level because we thought it was funny😅. It's strange and difficult being a child gamer but I love the memories it created
11:26 How the hell did you not have a jetpack by The Abyss to save yourself after falling down?! You definitely should've picked one up during regular gameplay by that point, even without finding the secrets. Edit: So you did have a jetpack & it was Build engine jank that killed you that second time.
Shame that the port seems so shoddy. Duke Nukem 3D was actually a really revolutionary game for its time and a major milestone in the history of first-person shooters -- it's the first real, actual 3D game with proper three-dimensional levels (even Doom was actually a 2D game, or 2.5D I guess; all the levels are two-dimensional but just displayed so that they *appear* 3D), and so many of the things we take for granted today were really mindblowing -- how much freedom you had to navigate the levels, all the secrets you could find, all the furniture that you could just destroy to find new routes... hell, even the fact that you could see yourself in the mirror! And, oh yes, the juvenile humor -- sure, much of it probably hasn't aged that well and it obviously hit better when most of the players were juvenile teenagers themselves; but I think the worst thing is that you saw the bland, "cleaned up" Nintendo version of it. Duke Nukem 3D was so unapologetically raunchy and overly explicit with the humor, you just go along with it and have a laugh. When you have a version like this that censors or removes most of it and waters down what's remaining... what remains is just awkward. With intentionally tasteless, intentionally offensive, intentionally juvenile humor, you gotta go all the way or not do it at all. Love the series, man, keep it up!
Doom 2 for the SNES was worse. You should try that. And then after 10 seconds ragequit due to the framerate being... uhh... measured in frames per minute instead of frames per seconds.
What? This was such an awesome port. I played it a lot and it had the best multiplayer mode of any N64 game. We played this over Goldeneye and Perfect Dark all the time. So many crazy weapons, and ypu could even play it coop.
It wasn't that revolutionary, Quake came around and did it better literally five months later. The main reason Duke Nukem stuck around was sex and violence. The original Duke Nukem platformers (I played all of them) were just as unremarkable to the point that people don't even know they exist. Literally looking up and down is the only revolutionary thing about Duke 3D. The gameplay was poor, the art direction was awful, and Duke himself is just a mediocre voice actor reading a bunch of lines the designers stole from various movies. The only reason the lines ever seemed good to anyone is because 11 year olds looking to see some tiddies hadn't seen these movies. Not sure why Duke needed to come back for Forever. Was better left as an artifact.
On stream you made it sound like you were gonna lambaste this game, but I thought you did a great job of pointing out the cool level design, and the other good things about it (alongside the unforgiving controls, no music, and bad checkpoints). Nice work as always, Thab and Craw!
Lol the 1 at a time movie theater is a old adult movie arcade just a little pre internet hurdle that pervs used to have to endure 👍i went to one with a fake ID when i was like 13 and it had 0 video games highly disappointed.
I beat it recently and man once you get past the controls it is absolutely a blast. About 30+ levels if you find all the secret ones. Lots of content, fun gameplay loop.
Playing the original PC version on and off for the last 25 years, I've never once seen the episode 2 boss fire its weapon lmao. Also the cinematic after that boss fight is toned WAAAAAAY down in the N64 port; in the original, when Duke first encounters that boss, he says "I'm gonna rip off your head and shit down your neck", and after the boss fight, we see he meant it literally.
to say there were a few people on pc back then that have played it is the most ridicolous thing i have ever heard about this game. this game was (after doom) the most groundbreaking fps that was made and prepared the way for half life. without the interactions in this game we would not have the modern shooters from today.
Amen brother. almost everyone I knew with a new pc for the time had duke nukem 3d. Since the 1990s was a period of wider pc adoption vs the early and 1990s, I actually knew more people with duke 3d than doom.
Last video i mentioned Ogre Battle, but i'm aslo curious to see what Beast has to say about Hybrid Heaven! Perhaps i'm one of the dozen people that really liked it.
5:36 They censored a strip club into a burger shop??!! Blasphemy!! Seriously, the series' raunchiness was one of its main appeals, the lighter tone and frivolous content putting it into stark contrast with dark, serious, horror-style Doom and Quake.
Weirdly enough Nintendo didn't mind when Duke Nukem: Zero Hour came out which had an implied sex scene and set pieces like the erotic cake shop. Who knows with these kooky clowns in suits.
The original Duke Nukem 3D was released when keyboard + mouse wasn't really a common input combination for 3D games on PC. I'm not really sure if the original MS-DOS version supported mouse input or if it was only intended to be played with keyboard. At least the perspective didn't really work well for mouse look and wanted you to keep the camera level for most of the time. I also don't know how aiming was changed for the N64 but in the original you only aim horizontally. It was intended to be played with the arrow keys, left/right turning and up/down moving forward/backward. You'd only use page up/down occasionally to look up/down but usually without moving at the same time. You'd just turn until the aim lined up vertically with the enemy and it would automatically aim at it, no need to look up to aim for flying enemies.
@@nicolasrancourt3958 Nah he's right, in Duke3d you didn't need to aim on the z axis. Mouse aiming can be enabled, but the Build 3D engine doesn't support it well, the image gets visibly distorted when looking up. We all used to play with keyboard only when it came out. I think it was Quake that made keyboard + mouse the standard?
@@nicolasrancourt3958 The mouse was supported all the way back in Wolfenstein 3D. But yes, neither Wolfenstein nor Doom allowed vertical aiming - Wolfenstein had no elevation change at all and Doom had a vertical autoaim.
@@the_kovic I think Doom was the first id game where you could circle strafe, since you could bind a key to strafe left and another key to strafe right, while using mouse to aim. Wolfenstein 3D had a strafe modifier button, which changed the turn controls to strafe controls. Also in DN3D you could jump/crouch(default A/Z) unlike Doom.
Is anyone going to tell Thab he was using the Look wrong? Like, you're not supposed to aim up, just like in the PC version. It's just there to be able to look up and down a little, but you don't need to aim up or down with your gun. The enemies are on a 2D, like Doom. So you can shoot 10 feet below an enemy and it'll still hit.
Still got this game and my n64. Brings back memories. Don't remember having issues with aiming but maybe that's because I have always been more of a console gamer than PC. This, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and many more. Loved them all. Also the reason that death happened to you when you used the jetpack across that chasm was because of the physics of the game. Played this all the time co-op with my brother when we were kids and we learned quickly that just like when you are small and you grow big you will die; if you maneuver Duke into a tight spot in just the right way the game will read it as him being squished and he will die. That's what happened when you were underwater with those gears too. Difficult to figure out games like this with multiple paths to complete each level forged and refined me into the master gamer I am today. Hail to the king baby 😎
@@kevinprager1139 No one kills me in Perfect Dark. I 1 v all; I win. Especially in infection mode. I kill you and my own team. I run up to you, I punch you in the face, I take your gun; I shoot you in the face. You become skeleton. I win. I am king. 😂
@@Jmnzz you've never been able to sneak flank or punch a dark Sim in your life unless it was through a door in the facility. 😂 I rock the double blast shotgun straight into their mouth hole. Coconut their head backwards straight into the wall. I am the guy who created infinite death.
Duke Nukem 64 is my favourite version of the game. I especially like some of the changes to the levels, some of the changed weapons (pus you now have alternative ammunition for some weapons, such as explosive bullets!), and that you can save the abducted ladies here, which you can't do in the original game (which is surprising - why can't you save them in Duke Nukem 3D? Duke is supposed to be a hero, after all). And it has four player splitscreen deathmatch with (very stupid) bots, which was fun at the time. Plus there were slight improvements to the original's graphics, such as 3D explosions and smoke, and the textures/architecture don't warp when you look up or down. Though the graphical improvements (minor as they were) mean nothing nowadays of course, as on any PC released in the past couple of decades you can play DN3D with very high resolutions, which will clean up the graphics, whereas of course the N64 game is still stuck running on 1996 hardware at 320 x200 (or whatever the game ran at). On the minus side, DN64has no in-game music, there is no parallax background (so in the space levels there are no stars, sadly, which just looks stupid :o( ), no working mirrors, and, as you said, no in-level saving. The latter was common in first person shooters on consoles at the time, as the consoles' game-save memory packs didn't have enough storage space to store all of the attributes and variables of a level and it's contents. DN64 was also censored, of course. This bothered some fans, but I didn't care. Just being able to save the babes, I think, more than compensated for any censorship, since it meant you could play Duke as a traditional hero. Regarding aiming in DN64, I didn't have any problem with it, but the auto-level (where when you stop aiming, the view returns to being vertically aligned with your eye level) was annoying, and the game should have had an option to turn it off. There is a fan-made patch for the game rom, that disables auto-leveling, but since it alters the game rom, then you either have to play it on your N64 using a flash cartridge (such as the Everdrive 64, or the 64Drive), or on a PC/Mac/etc based N64 emulator.
Growing up I had both pc duke 3d and duke 64. The pc version came first, then my dad eventually bought me duke 64 because "it saved space on the computer". In all honesty I preferred duke 64 over the computer version. I like the gun models more, and awhile it is censored, the censorship does not actually take away from the game for me. The n64 version also added a few extra touches here and there. For example at the beginning of second level of the game, you see a subway above you to the right. Later in the game episode 3 when you are in the subway level you can look down back at episode 1 level 2. Another is the ability to save the babes instead of killing them. Little touches like this gave the game more class.
When did Thab start recording this series? Just curious. I'm in for the long haul anyway. Maybe he'll have legit grey hair by the time he gets around to beating every game.
I don't remember having nearly this much trouble navigating this game as a kid, I remember it all being pretty straightforward but maybe just because I played it so many times. The part with the gears you just have to swim through as the Grey line comes around
You could have made the 2nd level much easier by shooting the fire hydrants and healing yourself by pressing action on the water. It's slow but you can heal to 100% using them.
I guess since he is in a grind to get through these games as fast as possibly for his series, that he is not taking his time to learn the control scheme and the subtle quality of life mechanics duke has to offer. My head was starting to ache when he was not shooting the fire hydrant to drink lol.
You have "outgrown all the adult humor?" And the humor hasn't "aged well?" Seriously, man? Big thumbs down from me on this one. It is because of statements like that one that prevents us from ever getting another movie like Tropic Thunder or another game like Duke Nukem. I don't care if a reviewer/reactor doesn't like a game or movie I enjoy, however I am VERY offended when said individual seems to support censorship, has a generally sex-negative attitude and supports political correctness.
When we were playing this game as kids, we didn't even care to think of what this could be representing. This was first and foremost a unique corridor with booths and screens in them, some of which contained monsters or pickups. ...Oh, I stay corrected. It crossed our minds that this could be a gaming club (which were also a big thing in the 90s). Why did it have doors? Who knows! Maybe gaming clubs are like this over there in the West!
What a blast from the past! I had no idea it had a N64 port; guess it would considering Hexen and Quake do. The controls had to have been awful compared to the PC as you've mentioned. Nice run though!
this was one of my first games playing on a console. i played duke nukem 64 growing up so much that i still remember the controls C buttons: movement thumb stick: look (fun fact: this is one of the games why i play with invert aim to this day) Z: fire L: use equipment R: jump B: crouch A: open doors/activate switches D-pad left/right: select weapon D-pad up/down: select equipment start: pause/menu i always thought it was convenient that duke nukem 64 utilised every button on the controller effectively.
I thought this game sucked until I eventually got it on the xbox 360 and realized I was cursed with a trash port as a child. Then when i got it on pc I realized it was goated.
The irony is that Duke Nukem 64 is a watered down version of Duke Nukem 3D, whereas Doom 64 is a totally different game from Doom, it's not just another port of Doom, but to the N64, it's a completely different game. I know a LOT of people didn't get Doom 64, because they thought it was just Doom, but on the N64, when it's a bunch of entirely new levels.
Trust me, the versions on Steam are much more fun, especially the Megaton Edition. Too bad they always get removed far too quickly and a new one thrown out.
Megaton Edition had THREE? Expansions, plus the 4th Episode, 20th Anniversary has a 5th episode, but none of the expansions :-( (Duke it out in DC, Nuclear Winter, and Life's a Beach)
Yo beast! Sorry for not knowing more about urself, but ive been watching ur n64 game playthroughs and love them. My question though is: Do you own every n64 game? I mean obvi ur not using emulators hah, just wondering if you actually own every game or just have most of em and borrow the others you dont have? Just curious :) keep up the great vids!
This was actually my first n64 game. I wanted Mario64 but it was sold out so I got duke at about 8/9 years old lol. I used to love that humor, and heck, I know it has not aged well, but I still appreciate it. Specially when he peed and said “uhh I needed that” lol. Also, I never actually finished it, it was too hard for me as a kid, but I played the hell out of it in the multiplayer vs, splitting the screen in 4 with my neighbors using the shrink ray and all that. It was hilarious. Great vid!
When I think of throwback FPS I think about duke nukem,this specific version to be exact,still remember playing 4 player deathmatch with my friends + the bots this game had were hilarious
This game is CRIPPLED by it's controls on the N64, sadly. This game is about TWO things: SHOOTING enemies, and EXPLORING/LOOKING at the environment. The controls (and the inability to adjust sensitivity what is this nonsense) ruin this otherwise really fun (and somewhat unique at the time) FPS. PS: You died in the canyon part (with the jetpack) because you were crushed. This is common of these Build Engine games in that they are super janky with the player hitboxes when it comes to walls and the system can easily decide you were in "Crush Range" if your between a floor and a ceiling and you change elevation (say....with a jetpack, or falling).
I think N64 -version is a disapointment. PC-version was made just prior 3DFX, and made huge effort to not look pixelated without accelration, and looked stunning while being very smooth and playable. One of the most well programmed games ever. So, why in earth would they overfilter N64-version, using maximum setting on texture smoothing and antialiasing? Damn... Luckily, now it's possible to patch it not to use AA, then it runs more like PC-version. But cencorship, "Duke Burger", "Movie theather" and absense of nearly everything that made PC-version classic, makes me sad. It's just a game, so why to ruin biggest PC classic at the time. N64 has also other Duke Nukem game, that is well made, thankfully.
The secret level you found was originally in the secret level of the episode 4 "The Birth" added into the Atomic Edition of Duke Nukem 3D alongside the protector drone(the fast xenomorph like enemies) released in late 1996. It replaces a Tier Drops a trippy Non-Euclidean level made possible by the feature of the Build Engine. Launch base was also original the secret level of Episode 1, which was made mandatory and the Secret Level is the second level of Episode 4. You missed a secret level entrance in hotel hell which is pretty much Duke going to the stadium level. The problem with the music is likely due to the original game coming on CD; while the game didn't use CD quality Audio instead using Midi audio the game was still larger thatn the most economical cartridge for a third party developer. I'm fairly certain that Duke Nukem 64 is likely using a 12 Mega at best to fit everything in.
Whoever in the live chat said that Duke Nukem fans don't read? We do read!!! Porno Magazines... "just for the articles". Oh wait... this is the N64 version: Gun Catalogues! Much more family friendly.
Odd even when I was 8 years old playing duke 64 I never had issues in come get some difficulty. (second hardest difficulty) Hug the c buttons and hold the analog stick in your fingers. the left side of the controller if not very important if I remember correctly. Watching you play level 2 was cringe. It was not your fault, but literally after you started and started going guns blazing at the pig cops, you skipped a fire hydrant. you can shoot the fire hydrant and drink water until 100 hp. Its a "oh shit" mechanic. I love how you ignore in level two that you were walking through a censored adult movie threater with individual masturbation rooms.
Duke Nukem 3d is much easier once you know where all the secrets are. Early weapon pickups, lots of health, armor and ammo and secret jetpacks. And you're right the PC version is much better for several reasons, saving and better controls at the top of that list.
I personaly liked it more than the PC Version, esp. the changed Weapons, the lower DIfficulty and that you can Rescue the Babes. I played Duke Nukem Megaton Edition and i think with all Episodes it was too long. The N64 Version was Shorter and they outsorted some bad levels i dont liked. The thing with the Controls is, i always liked N64 Controls and the Most Shooters do very well but its completely a other thing to use an original N64 Controller on N64 or use other Controllers today with New Games today. Its another Mindset, but i hat done it this year and i get used to it fast.
Huh. I didn't realize Duke 64 had a different weapon set than the original, what an odd thing to change. I've played through at least a few episodes of Duke 3D. Looking forward to Doom 64, its actually a pretty good doom sequel, although it has some faults. Always liked Doom more than Duke Nukem.
Me and my brothers loved duke nukem on the PC, but we really liked it on the N64 because multiplayer (we didnt know how to do a lan party for Duke3D, it was too hard... we could do it for Doom and RedAlert and AgeofEmpires... but not Duke.)
Duke Nukem 3d on the PC was amazing. The N64 version was pointless. I don't think it sold well more than likely because it was mostly a watered-down version of the PC version with worse controls.
"First person shooters didn't really take off until the next generation" I assume you mean just on home consoles because in arcades and PC fps games were already hugely popular. even on N64 you had games like goldeneye and perfect dark. Turol rage wars was pretty popular where I live.
Strange i don't remember control issues. But i played this game when i was like 9. Maybe i was just a masochist or didn't have the Insite that better controls would eventually exist.
If you think this did a disservice to the PC version, wait until you play DOOM 64 😆 I actually enjoyed duke 64, having played a lot of the pc version it was pretty easy for me to get used to the controls and findmy way around.
Are you sure the stick being too sensitive is the game's problem and not the problem of the controller you are using? Especially if you're using some shitty 3rd party controller like Tribute 64 and stuff. All the games were developed with the one and true original Nintendo-made stick in mind and that stick outputs pretty low values even if brand new (and infamously gets even lower as the plastic inside the stick module wears down). And it's not just the absolute value that's a problem - the original stick is supposed to have a smooth progression between it's values, allowing for very precise aim. Most 3rd party sticks are way too sensitive and will shoot you from an analog value of ~20 straight to max output, will all of the nuance between "holding the stick slightly" and "tilting it all the way" all but gone.
Mario Party 1 being where most of the plastic got worn down, from people realising that instead of using their thumb to do 360 degree rotations on the analog stick, they could simply press down on the top of it with their palm, and rotate a lot more 360's a lot quicker like that.
The guy in the prison cell is Hannibal Lecter. Silence of the Lambs was relatively new when the original version this game was ported from came out so it would've been more obvious back then. But yeah, it's Hannibal Lecter.
Hey, you have a pronunciation error there - you do not speak sh after a vowel correctly as single sound, but as two sounds. Examples are mis-shyn or mas-sheen which should be pronounced mi-shyn and ma-sheen. Same with „issue“ and any other word where this combination of vowel and the sh sound occurs.
Same. If I'm going to do the campaign, I honestly prefer 64 to the original. The gamepad controls have no right being as good as they are, I've always found it a real pleasure to play through.
@@josevitorino1533 I like old school shooters, and you're right, it's not a good game lol. I always got the impression it was never meant to be good, just funny for edgy teens. I laughed at a few of the dumb jokes when I was a kid, but that's about it. The gameplay sucks, the graphics were horrible, even by N64 standards (Doom 64 for example looked significantly better), and it's just boring. There are way better shooters out there from that era for sure.
Also I always found it ironic that the N64 version has these 3-D bad looking fake explosions to replace the original explosions which looked a lot Realer because it was real fire digitized 🤷♂️😂🔥
2 things really stand out. The explosions and last boss isnt sprites like they are on the PC version. Very odd choice as it would had greatly improved performance.
the game of been better with music in the levels, the gore is good, the majority of it is great, but, no music in levels was disapointing. But, really good to have Duke 64 if the PC version didn;t work. You can change the controls to joystick move (makes gameplay like Goldeneye and is far better than the default setting)
i remember watching my dad play this and beat it... and i played it a lot too but never beat it.... but back in the day i dont really remember the controls being so bad... but now that i go back and try to play old 64 games.... they have horrible freaking controls i think it was just the standard back then lol they didnt have it all worked like it is now...
I enjoy these videos but most of them are like 30 minutes straight of talking with barely a breath. Focusing for that period of time is kind of irritating.
You have to use movement to help aim instead of standing still and trying to aim with the joystick id try to aim to the enemies level with the joystick and use left to right to aim horizontally and vice versa just depending its still something i do in modern fps
The ground breaking part of this game was getting the babes to strip on PC. I remember having fun with the multiplayer on n64. It was kind of fun playing with friends similar to Golden Eye
Thab going into the adult booth theatre and "not knowing" what it was for was funny as hell
this made me lolgoodman
Beast is too wholesome to know what it is. He is a absolute good.
nah it was an awesome joke. He's too smart
Feel like you dont really /need/ to know what it is before hand to realize whats going on. Think it was just for show
With “Babes” grinding on a motionless fella 🤣
I'm watching EVERY beating EVERY N64 game video, and I mean all of them
The twist is, the next video is randomly selected by TH-cam's Autoplay algorithm, so I have no clue what's coming next.
Same here. Except for those extremely boring sports games that all look the same. To be honest, I just skip through them and only look at the beginning and the end.
What made me addicted to this game on N64 was the fact that I could split screen co-op with my lil bro at the time when i was a kid that was the coolest shooter, to finally stop killing my brother and allow him to fight side by side with me killing aliens lol
Hey that was me too!
yeah the co-op on this game was amazing. me and one of my buddies had a great time with this game
It wasn't a bad port, just turned down to PG. They actually added some cool new weapons and levels for the N64 version. I loved the Turok-style controls most N64 FPS games used. As someone who has played this same game on the PC, N64, GBA, Switch, etc over and over for the last 25 years, I think you were making it too hard trying to aim so directly at enemies above or below you. The Z-plane wasn't really a thing for the original game. You can shoot like 10 feet below an enemy in the air, as long as it's the right direction, it will still hit them.
Love the video by the way! Excited to see you play through my old favorites. Can't wait for Turok 2, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon and Duke Nukem: Zero Hour.
Yeah, you can change control scheme in this game. Oe of them works especially well on the Hori mini pad controller because the D-pad to change weps/items is right next to ur thumb.
I've always felt that the N64 levels were better than the PC ones. The PC ones feel a bit bare bones at times because what they usually did was dissect some levels from PC and then attach the parts in sensible locations for the N64 versions. The secret levels on N64 also seamlessly blended into the main levels if you pay close attention. The ammo types were really cool and the grenade launcher was way more interesting and fun too use than the RPG from the PC version and you still get a proper rocket launcher later with different mechanics. Only thing the N64 version really lacks is the freeze thrower.
No this is a sht port
@@HonkeyKong54 not at all
Not enough good things can be said about the narration dialogue you have for every N64 game video that you've put out, I know it has to be so time consuming, speaking as a viewer who hasn't missed a video in this series, I (like i'm sure many others) appreciate and respect your work, Great work Thab and editor!!
A room for 1 person and a woman dancing. Poor Thab. So young and innocent.
it was a joke
@@maxthrust88888 No it wasn't. lol
9:48 You got squished by the gears because you need to enter where one of the gear teeth is missing.
Hearing innocent old Thab say “and the pigs captured me!“ about the cop enemies literally made me laugh out loud 😂
honestly thought he was joking
He is most likely not all that innocent, he's probably playing a character.
May be hard to believe, but not everyone talks with foul language or has a perverted mind.
Blue Lives Matter, Black ones ,not so much honestly
The reason the first chapter was better is because it's a shareware game. All the effort went into the free part to get people to buy the full game.
Not only that but game design doctrine for FPSes at the time was likely set by John Romero's precedent for Doom. He made all the other levels for the game first, then went back and made the first episode so that they would be the best levels, and episode 1 is indeed considered to be the best by most players.
I remember in co-op that there was a chance for a monster to ONE SHOT YOU! (didnt matter what difficulty)
i remember it was in hotel hell and a flying monster shot from above insta killing my friend! and one time i was put to 1hp from 200hp from one shot!
idk if its like rng or just a sneaky co-op thing.
This is totally wild. So 1997 was long enough ago that I could barely read when this game came out (bless my mom for letting me rent it from blockbuster anyway). So I had absolutely no idea it measured the babes and secrets you discovered, it was just another wall of incomprehensible text that I clicked through. Lmfao😂. The other "literally illiterate children" that I played this with used to just pass the controller back and forth amongst one another while we tried desperately to figure out what was going on 🤣. When one of us figured out that you could pee, we did it every time we played the level because we thought it was funny😅. It's strange and difficult being a child gamer but I love the memories it created
The narration and editing in these videos are fantastic. Probs to Beast and the editor.
There are not the same Person? :D
11:26 How the hell did you not have a jetpack by The Abyss to save yourself after falling down?! You definitely should've picked one up during regular gameplay by that point, even without finding the secrets. Edit: So you did have a jetpack & it was Build engine jank that killed you that second time.
Shame that the port seems so shoddy. Duke Nukem 3D was actually a really revolutionary game for its time and a major milestone in the history of first-person shooters -- it's the first real, actual 3D game with proper three-dimensional levels (even Doom was actually a 2D game, or 2.5D I guess; all the levels are two-dimensional but just displayed so that they *appear* 3D), and so many of the things we take for granted today were really mindblowing -- how much freedom you had to navigate the levels, all the secrets you could find, all the furniture that you could just destroy to find new routes... hell, even the fact that you could see yourself in the mirror!
And, oh yes, the juvenile humor -- sure, much of it probably hasn't aged that well and it obviously hit better when most of the players were juvenile teenagers themselves; but I think the worst thing is that you saw the bland, "cleaned up" Nintendo version of it. Duke Nukem 3D was so unapologetically raunchy and overly explicit with the humor, you just go along with it and have a laugh. When you have a version like this that censors or removes most of it and waters down what's remaining... what remains is just awkward. With intentionally tasteless, intentionally offensive, intentionally juvenile humor, you gotta go all the way or not do it at all.
Love the series, man, keep it up!
Doom 2 for the SNES was worse. You should try that. And then after 10 seconds ragequit due to the framerate being... uhh... measured in frames per minute instead of frames per seconds.
What? This was such an awesome port. I played it a lot and it had the best multiplayer mode of any N64 game. We played this over Goldeneye and Perfect Dark all the time. So many crazy weapons, and ypu could even play it coop.
It’s not that bad. For a 90s console shooter it’s above average
I'm sure the humor would have been great if I played this when it was new. Probably the same feeling I got playing GTA San Andreas as a teenager
It wasn't that revolutionary, Quake came around and did it better literally five months later. The main reason Duke Nukem stuck around was sex and violence. The original Duke Nukem platformers (I played all of them) were just as unremarkable to the point that people don't even know they exist.
Literally looking up and down is the only revolutionary thing about Duke 3D. The gameplay was poor, the art direction was awful, and Duke himself is just a mediocre voice actor reading a bunch of lines the designers stole from various movies. The only reason the lines ever seemed good to anyone is because 11 year olds looking to see some tiddies hadn't seen these movies.
Not sure why Duke needed to come back for Forever. Was better left as an artifact.
On stream you made it sound like you were gonna lambaste this game, but I thought you did a great job of pointing out the cool level design, and the other good things about it (alongside the unforgiving controls, no music, and bad checkpoints). Nice work as always, Thab and Craw!
i cant believe u didnt mention that you cant change INVERTED aim. Up looks down and down looks up - and theres NO way to change it!
4 way death match on the stadium level was super fun. Decoys, jet packs, heat seeking missiles, trip mines. So much carnage!!!
Don't forget the Duke Bots if you didn't have 4 players!
Lol the 1 at a time movie theater is a old adult movie arcade just a little pre internet hurdle that pervs used to have to endure 👍i went to one with a fake ID when i was like 13 and it had 0 video games highly disappointed.
This game looks really cool imo, cool guns, monsters, babes, I would've loved this game when I was a kid...
I beat it recently and man once you get past the controls it is absolutely a blast. About 30+ levels if you find all the secret ones. Lots of content, fun gameplay loop.
Playing the original PC version on and off for the last 25 years, I've never once seen the episode 2 boss fire its weapon lmao. Also the cinematic after that boss fight is toned WAAAAAAY down in the N64 port; in the original, when Duke first encounters that boss, he says "I'm gonna rip off your head and shit down your neck", and after the boss fight, we see he meant it literally.
Some of these Levels gave me Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire vibes lol
to say there were a few people on pc back then that have played it is the most ridicolous thing i have ever heard about this game. this game was (after doom) the most groundbreaking fps that was made and prepared the way for half life. without the interactions in this game we would not have the modern shooters from today.
Amen brother. almost everyone I knew with a new pc for the time had duke nukem 3d. Since the 1990s was a period of wider pc adoption vs the early and 1990s, I actually knew more people with duke 3d than doom.
@@pauls4522 thank god i am not the only one who thought this
Last video i mentioned Ogre Battle, but i'm aslo curious to see what Beast has to say about Hybrid Heaven! Perhaps i'm one of the dozen people that really liked it.
I've been waiting for this too! Loved the game.
5:36 They censored a strip club into a burger shop??!! Blasphemy!!
Seriously, the series' raunchiness was one of its main appeals, the lighter tone and frivolous content putting it into stark contrast with dark, serious, horror-style Doom and Quake.
Weirdly enough Nintendo didn't mind when Duke Nukem: Zero Hour came out which had an implied sex scene and set pieces like the erotic cake shop. Who knows with these kooky clowns in suits.
Day 455 of appreciating Thab’s content. Love the vibe the intro brings!
The original Duke Nukem 3D was released when keyboard + mouse wasn't really a common input combination for 3D games on PC. I'm not really sure if the original MS-DOS version supported mouse input or if it was only intended to be played with keyboard. At least the perspective didn't really work well for mouse look and wanted you to keep the camera level for most of the time.
I also don't know how aiming was changed for the N64 but in the original you only aim horizontally. It was intended to be played with the arrow keys, left/right turning and up/down moving forward/backward. You'd only use page up/down occasionally to look up/down but usually without moving at the same time. You'd just turn until the aim lined up vertically with the enemy and it would automatically aim at it, no need to look up to aim for flying enemies.
You're confusing the original doom and duke nukem 3d
I played the original quake with just a keyboard haha mouse freelook wasn't on by default.
@@nicolasrancourt3958 Nah he's right, in Duke3d you didn't need to aim on the z axis. Mouse aiming can be enabled, but the Build 3D engine doesn't support it well, the image gets visibly distorted when looking up. We all used to play with keyboard only when it came out. I think it was Quake that made keyboard + mouse the standard?
@@nicolasrancourt3958 The mouse was supported all the way back in Wolfenstein 3D. But yes, neither Wolfenstein nor Doom allowed vertical aiming - Wolfenstein had no elevation change at all and Doom had a vertical autoaim.
@@the_kovic I think Doom was the first id game where you could circle strafe, since you could bind a key to strafe left and another key to strafe right, while using mouse to aim. Wolfenstein 3D had a strafe modifier button, which changed the turn controls to strafe controls. Also in DN3D you could jump/crouch(default A/Z) unlike Doom.
Is anyone going to tell Thab he was using the Look wrong? Like, you're not supposed to aim up, just like in the PC version. It's just there to be able to look up and down a little, but you don't need to aim up or down with your gun. The enemies are on a 2D, like Doom. So you can shoot 10 feet below an enemy and it'll still hit.
"It's time to chew ars and kick bubble gum, and I am all out of ars!" ~Dick Kickem
Still got this game and my n64. Brings back memories. Don't remember having issues with aiming but maybe that's because I have always been more of a console gamer than PC. This, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and many more. Loved them all. Also the reason that death happened to you when you used the jetpack across that chasm was because of the physics of the game. Played this all the time co-op with my brother when we were kids and we learned quickly that just like when you are small and you grow big you will die; if you maneuver Duke into a tight spot in just the right way the game will read it as him being squished and he will die. That's what happened when you were underwater with those gears too. Difficult to figure out games like this with multiple paths to complete each level forged and refined me into the master gamer I am today. Hail to the king baby 😎
I kill you so hard in perfect dark.
I kill dark sims. 8 vs 1. I win.
@@kevinprager1139 No one kills me in Perfect Dark.
I 1 v all; I win.
Especially in infection mode. I kill you and my own team.
I run up to you, I punch you in the face, I take your gun; I shoot you in the face. You become skeleton. I win.
I am king.
😂
@@Jmnzz you've never been able to sneak flank or punch a dark Sim in your life unless it was through a door in the facility. 😂
I rock the double blast shotgun straight into their mouth hole. Coconut their head backwards straight into the wall.
I am the guy who created infinite death.
I had this game and could never beat It back then, but the multiplayer is great. It is the only version that has coop too

Duke Nukem 64 is my favourite version of the game. I especially like some of the changes to the levels, some of the changed weapons (pus you now have alternative ammunition for some weapons, such as explosive bullets!), and that you can save the abducted ladies here, which you can't do in the original game (which is surprising - why can't you save them in Duke Nukem 3D? Duke is supposed to be a hero, after all). And it has four player splitscreen deathmatch with (very stupid) bots, which was fun at the time. Plus there were slight improvements to the original's graphics, such as 3D explosions and smoke, and the textures/architecture don't warp when you look up or down. Though the graphical improvements (minor as they were) mean nothing nowadays of course, as on any PC released in the past couple of decades you can play DN3D with very high resolutions, which will clean up the graphics, whereas of course the N64 game is still stuck running on 1996 hardware at 320 x200 (or whatever the game ran at).
On the minus side, DN64has no in-game music, there is no parallax background (so in the space levels there are no stars, sadly, which just looks stupid :o( ), no working mirrors, and, as you said, no in-level saving. The latter was common in first person shooters on consoles at the time, as the consoles' game-save memory packs didn't have enough storage space to store all of the attributes and variables of a level and it's contents.
DN64 was also censored, of course. This bothered some fans, but I didn't care. Just being able to save the babes, I think, more than compensated for any censorship, since it meant you could play Duke as a traditional hero.
Regarding aiming in DN64, I didn't have any problem with it, but the auto-level (where when you stop aiming, the view returns to being vertically aligned with your eye level) was annoying, and the game should have had an option to turn it off. There is a fan-made patch for the game rom, that disables auto-leveling, but since it alters the game rom, then you either have to play it on your N64 using a flash cartridge (such as the Everdrive 64, or the 64Drive), or on a PC/Mac/etc based N64 emulator.
Growing up I had both pc duke 3d and duke 64. The pc version came first, then my dad eventually bought me duke 64 because "it saved space on the computer".
In all honesty I preferred duke 64 over the computer version. I like the gun models more, and awhile it is censored, the censorship does not actually take away from the game for me.
The n64 version also added a few extra touches here and there. For example at the beginning of second level of the game, you see a subway above you to the right. Later in the game episode 3 when you are in the subway level you can look down back at episode 1 level 2. Another is the ability to save the babes instead of killing them. Little touches like this gave the game more class.
I think it’s Hannibal in the prison cell. From what I can remember.
When did Thab start recording this series?
Just curious. I'm in for the long haul anyway. Maybe he'll have legit grey hair by the time he gets around to beating every game.
He started at episode 1 of this
March 2021 was the first game
@@Thabeast721 Thank you for answering.
Congratulations on the 1 year anniversary in that case!
Looking forward to the end of a future video when thab says "69, what's that?"
I don't remember having nearly this much trouble navigating this game as a kid, I remember it all being pretty straightforward but maybe just because I played it so many times. The part with the gears you just have to swim through as the Grey line comes around
Living this series mate hope your enjoying most the games lol
I actually beat this game on the hardest difficulty. It was A GRIND, and absolutely not worth it
Oh you poor bastard...THIS GAME
You could have made the 2nd level much easier by shooting the fire hydrants and healing yourself by pressing action on the water. It's slow but you can heal to 100% using them.
I guess since he is in a grind to get through these games as fast as possibly for his series, that he is not taking his time to learn the control scheme and the subtle quality of life mechanics duke has to offer.
My head was starting to ache when he was not shooting the fire hydrant to drink lol.
You have "outgrown all the adult humor?" And the humor hasn't "aged well?" Seriously, man? Big thumbs down from me on this one. It is because of statements like that one that prevents us from ever getting another movie like Tropic Thunder or another game like Duke Nukem. I don't care if a reviewer/reactor doesn't like a game or movie I enjoy, however I am VERY offended when said individual seems to support censorship, has a generally sex-negative attitude and supports political correctness.
oh hell yea, I'll be watching this tonight
I played this on both pc and n64, I played multi-player on n64 with IRL folk
Interior crocodile alligator
I drive a Chevrolet 01:57
Should I do homework...naw, it can wait. A new Thab 64 challenge came out.
I played the SHIT outta this game as a kid
“So I shot it til it exploded” Words to live by
Genuinely can't tell if the beast was being sarcastic or just wholesome when not knowing what the peep show room was lmao
Dude...
The irony of having encyclopedic knowledge about fetishes and adult entertainment but not getting a joke if it's not explicit.
I also didn't know this is (was) a thing.
It was show. Feel like you dont /need/ to know what they are beforehand to get whats going on
When we were playing this game as kids, we didn't even care to think of what this could be representing. This was first and foremost a unique corridor with booths and screens in them, some of which contained monsters or pickups.
...Oh, I stay corrected. It crossed our minds that this could be a gaming club (which were also a big thing in the 90s). Why did it have doors? Who knows! Maybe gaming clubs are like this over there in the West!
What a blast from the past! I had no idea it had a N64 port; guess it would considering Hexen and Quake do. The controls had to have been awful compared to the PC as you've mentioned. Nice run though!
this was one of my first games playing on a console. i played duke nukem 64 growing up so much that i still remember the controls
C buttons: movement
thumb stick: look (fun fact: this is one of the games why i play with invert aim to this day)
Z: fire
L: use equipment
R: jump
B: crouch
A: open doors/activate switches
D-pad left/right: select weapon
D-pad up/down: select equipment
start: pause/menu
i always thought it was convenient that duke nukem 64 utilised every button on the controller effectively.
I thought this game sucked until I eventually got it on the xbox 360 and realized I was cursed with a trash port as a child. Then when i got it on pc I realized it was goated.
The irony is that Duke Nukem 64 is a watered down version of Duke Nukem 3D, whereas Doom 64 is a totally different game from Doom, it's not just another port of Doom, but to the N64, it's a completely different game. I know a LOT of people didn't get Doom 64, because they thought it was just Doom, but on the N64, when it's a bunch of entirely new levels.
This series is the only thing I have to look forward to every week. Keep up the amazing job
Trust me, the versions on Steam are much more fun, especially the Megaton Edition.
Too bad they always get removed far too quickly and a new one thrown out.
Megaton Edition had THREE? Expansions, plus the 4th Episode, 20th Anniversary has a 5th episode, but none of the expansions :-( (Duke it out in DC, Nuclear Winter, and Life's a Beach)
@@lmcgregoruk yes
Also Megaton Edition had Steam Workshop support, so lots of user levels.
Yo beast! Sorry for not knowing more about urself, but ive been watching ur n64 game playthroughs and love them. My question though is: Do you own every n64 game? I mean obvi ur not using emulators hah, just wondering if you actually own every game or just have most of em and borrow the others you dont have? Just curious :) keep up the great vids!
At one video a week, this project will take longer than the N64's lifespan. Talk about a 7 year plan.
This was actually my first n64 game. I wanted Mario64 but it was sold out so I got duke at about 8/9 years old lol. I used to love that humor, and heck, I know it has not aged well, but I still appreciate it. Specially when he peed and said “uhh I needed that” lol. Also, I never actually finished it, it was too hard for me as a kid, but I played the hell out of it in the multiplayer vs, splitting the screen in 4 with my neighbors using the shrink ray and all that. It was hilarious. Great vid!
When I think of throwback FPS I think about duke nukem,this specific version to be exact,still remember playing 4 player deathmatch with my friends + the bots this game had were hilarious
Please bring back the old way you used to say "I'm beating every N64 game, and I mean all of them." Other than that, well done.
This game is CRIPPLED by it's controls on the N64, sadly. This game is about TWO things: SHOOTING enemies, and EXPLORING/LOOKING at the environment. The controls (and the inability to adjust sensitivity what is this nonsense) ruin this otherwise really fun (and somewhat unique at the time) FPS.
PS: You died in the canyon part (with the jetpack) because you were crushed. This is common of these Build Engine games in that they are super janky with the player hitboxes when it comes to walls and the system can easily decide you were in "Crush Range" if your between a floor and a ceiling and you change elevation (say....with a jetpack, or falling).
I think N64 -version is a disapointment.
PC-version was made just prior 3DFX, and made huge effort to not look pixelated without accelration, and looked stunning while being very smooth and playable.
One of the most well programmed games ever.
So, why in earth would they overfilter N64-version, using maximum setting on texture smoothing and antialiasing?
Damn...
Luckily, now it's possible to patch it not to use AA, then it runs more like PC-version.
But cencorship, "Duke Burger", "Movie theather" and absense of nearly everything that made PC-version classic, makes me sad.
It's just a game, so why to ruin biggest PC classic at the time.
N64 has also other Duke Nukem game, that is well made, thankfully.
The secret level you found was originally in the secret level of the episode 4 "The Birth" added into the Atomic Edition of Duke Nukem 3D alongside the protector drone(the fast xenomorph like enemies) released in late 1996. It replaces a Tier Drops a trippy Non-Euclidean level made possible by the feature of the Build Engine. Launch base was also original the secret level of Episode 1, which was made mandatory and the Secret Level is the second level of Episode 4. You missed a secret level entrance in hotel hell which is pretty much Duke going to the stadium level.
The problem with the music is likely due to the original game coming on CD; while the game didn't use CD quality Audio instead using Midi audio the game was still larger thatn the most economical cartridge for a third party developer. I'm fairly certain that Duke Nukem 64 is likely using a 12 Mega at best to fit everything in.
Whoever in the live chat said that Duke Nukem fans don't read? We do read!!! Porno Magazines... "just for the articles". Oh wait... this is the N64 version: Gun Catalogues! Much more family friendly.
Odd even when I was 8 years old playing duke 64 I never had issues in come get some difficulty. (second hardest difficulty)
Hug the c buttons and hold the analog stick in your fingers. the left side of the controller if not very important if I remember correctly.
Watching you play level 2 was cringe. It was not your fault, but literally after you started and started going guns blazing at the pig cops, you skipped a fire hydrant. you can shoot the fire hydrant and drink water until 100 hp.
Its a "oh shit" mechanic.
I love how you ignore in level two that you were walking through a censored adult movie threater with individual masturbation rooms.
Duke Nukem 3d is much easier once you know where all the secrets are. Early weapon pickups, lots of health, armor and ammo and secret jetpacks. And you're right the PC version is much better for several reasons, saving and better controls at the top of that list.
I personaly liked it more than the PC Version, esp. the changed Weapons, the lower DIfficulty and that you can Rescue the Babes. I played Duke Nukem Megaton Edition and i think with all Episodes it was too long. The N64 Version was Shorter and they outsorted some bad levels i dont liked. The thing with the Controls is, i always liked N64 Controls and the Most Shooters do very well but its completely a other thing to use an original N64 Controller on N64 or use other Controllers today with New Games today. Its another Mindset, but i hat done it this year and i get used to it fast.
Huh. I didn't realize Duke 64 had a different weapon set than the original, what an odd thing to change. I've played through at least a few episodes of Duke 3D. Looking forward to Doom 64, its actually a pretty good doom sequel, although it has some faults. Always liked Doom more than Duke Nukem.
Me and my brothers loved duke nukem on the PC, but we really liked it on the N64 because multiplayer (we didnt know how to do a lan party for Duke3D, it was too hard... we could do it for Doom and RedAlert and AgeofEmpires... but not Duke.)
Duke Nukem 3d on the PC was amazing. The N64 version was pointless. I don't think it sold well more than likely because it was mostly a watered-down version of the PC version with worse controls.
"First person shooters didn't really take off until the next generation" I assume you mean just on home consoles because in arcades and PC fps games were already hugely popular. even on N64 you had games like goldeneye and perfect dark. Turol rage wars was pretty popular where I live.
Strange i don't remember control issues. But i played this game when i was like 9. Maybe i was just a masochist or didn't have the Insite that better controls would eventually exist.
If you think this did a disservice to the PC version, wait until you play DOOM 64 😆
I actually enjoyed duke 64, having played a lot of the pc version it was pretty easy for me to get used to the controls and findmy way around.
Are you sure the stick being too sensitive is the game's problem and not the problem of the controller you are using? Especially if you're using some shitty 3rd party controller like Tribute 64 and stuff. All the games were developed with the one and true original Nintendo-made stick in mind and that stick outputs pretty low values even if brand new (and infamously gets even lower as the plastic inside the stick module wears down). And it's not just the absolute value that's a problem - the original stick is supposed to have a smooth progression between it's values, allowing for very precise aim. Most 3rd party sticks are way too sensitive and will shoot you from an analog value of ~20 straight to max output, will all of the nuance between "holding the stick slightly" and "tilting it all the way" all but gone.
I use an original controller with a very good quality first party stick lol
Mario Party 1 being where most of the plastic got worn down, from people realising that instead of using their thumb to do 360 degree rotations on the analog stick, they could simply press down on the top of it with their palm, and rotate a lot more 360's a lot quicker like that.
The guy in the prison cell is Hannibal Lecter. Silence of the Lambs was relatively new when the original version this game was ported from came out so it would've been more obvious back then. But yeah, it's Hannibal Lecter.
Hey, you have a pronunciation error there - you do not speak sh after a vowel correctly as single sound, but as two sounds. Examples are mis-shyn or mas-sheen which should be pronounced mi-shyn and ma-sheen. Same with „issue“ and any other word where this combination of vowel and the sh sound occurs.
This was a fun one to watch. Really looking forward to when you finally get to Starcraft 64 and see how to you do with the port of a PC game.
I forgot about SC64!!!! Now I'm excited for that 😎
Same. If I'm going to do the campaign, I honestly prefer 64 to the original. The gamepad controls have no right being as good as they are, I've always found it a real pleasure to play through.
It seems like a bad game to me personally.
I don't like shooters. But if I liked it. I feel like this wouldn't be a good game regardless.
@@josevitorino1533 I like old school shooters, and you're right, it's not a good game lol. I always got the impression it was never meant to be good, just funny for edgy teens. I laughed at a few of the dumb jokes when I was a kid, but that's about it. The gameplay sucks, the graphics were horrible, even by N64 standards (Doom 64 for example looked significantly better), and it's just boring. There are way better shooters out there from that era for sure.
You seem like bad person to me personally.
Also I always found it ironic that the N64 version has these 3-D bad looking fake explosions to replace the original explosions which looked a lot Realer because it was real fire digitized 🤷♂️😂🔥
2 things really stand out. The explosions and last boss isnt sprites like they are on the PC version. Very odd choice as it would had greatly improved performance.
the game of been better with music in the levels, the gore is good, the majority of it is great, but, no music in levels was disapointing. But, really good to have Duke 64 if the PC version didn;t work. You can change the controls to joystick move (makes gameplay like Goldeneye and is far better than the default setting)
with four binary switches there are only 16 possibly combos... 256 would be 8 switches
edit: just realized there were two sets of four in the video
i remember watching my dad play this and beat it... and i played it a lot too but never beat it.... but back in the day i dont really remember the controls being so bad... but now that i go back and try to play old 64 games.... they have horrible freaking controls i think it was just the standard back then lol they didnt have it all worked like it is now...
I enjoy these videos but most of them are like 30 minutes straight of talking with barely a breath. Focusing for that period of time is kind of irritating.
In the second level, it was a porn-shop in the original, that's why there are rooms for 1 person to watch movies. But Nintendo changed it, of course.
emulating golden eye and playing with mouse and keys, MUWAHH chefs kiss, god teir, its like playing a whole new game
Fun fact : On the hardest difficulty corps respawn unless you blow them on the ground
DUKE NUKEM?!?!?!?! Best series on youtube, in the history of social media
I rented this game like 2-3 times. There was some multiplayer level with water and we set up laser trap barriers and stuff
Weird comment that FPS wasn’t a big thing on consoles yet. I guess you don’t have a lot of Goldeneye memories.
Duke matches on stadium is fun as fuk on 64... PC don't even try to make steps just a big slab with weapons
Heh, can't wait until you get to Hexen. You're going to have a great time playing that without a guide, just make sure you play as the cleric or mage.
Just found this series & I love it. Keep it up dude.
You have to use movement to help aim instead of standing still and trying to aim with the joystick id try to aim to the enemies level with the joystick and use left to right to aim horizontally and vice versa just depending its still something i do in modern fps
Did you never hear of Goldeneye?
This is the Generation where First Person Shooters became popular on console.
We're you using an oem 90s controller? The sticks on new controllers don't work the same and can give problems
2/10 ? wow...
Shrek or Liar Liar hahahahahaha me too thab, me too!
Game #64 you go through needs to be an extended video if possible! Love your stuff!
He has full gameplay videos on his other channel. ThabPlays.
Never finished this game when i was 10 playing with my brother who was 7 back in the days lolll it was so hard ;)
The ground breaking part of this game was getting the babes to strip on PC. I remember having fun with the multiplayer on n64. It was kind of fun playing with friends similar to Golden Eye
Should just switch to control stick to move controls in the options. Way easier imho i loved this game.
