There's no split-screen for either Dukematch or Co-op, which is something I was expecting, and unless I change my mind and buy more points, I won't be paying 10$ to see if online play is any good. Sorry Duke, it's a pass.
Why... would you expect a port of a PC game to have... splitscreen, something thats a relic of the 16 and 32 bit era? Do you think you're downloading Goldeneye? Yeesh.

Downloaded Duke3D. I had a little skepticism - this is probably my all-time favorite PC game and I have many, many fond memories playing it on Co-Op. Doubly so for several mods like The Shining. So theres a level of notalgia involved in this for me...

The forced "mouse look" is a little weird after having played this game since the day it hit shelves. However, props to the people who ported it for adding the video clip material, as well as the checkpoint ability. The game is harder, it may be because I'm getting use to the new controls but it seems the enemies are firing off rounds at a much quicker pace.

Still, this is a great port of a fantastic game and you have to like a game that has an achievement for handing dollars to strippers.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Agreed completely, Garr.

The only fault I can find with the game is that we can't use fanmods and maps with it. Such is life. Still fucking classic gaming.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

YES. Virtual On was the fucking shit in the arcades. I don't know how much fun it'll be at home without the crazy jap-future arcade box/seat but this is definitely a choice in good taste none-the-less.

All I could wish for is that somehow that either arcade versions of Dungeons & Dragons or Aliens Versus Predator have similar fates in store for XBLA. My mind would explode at such news!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you think something involving Outrun looks like balls, you need to get your head screwed on straight. Its a dumb arcade series put to a dumb XBLA download and god will I ever love it. Retarded drifting physics? Dragons? Insane feeling of speed? All it needs is a bonus level where you do lines off the hood of your car to make this the greatest XBLA experience ever.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
