The game, a frenetic 3-on-3 arcade bralwer from 2000 (and probably one of the main reasons you keep a Sega Dreamcast around, assuming you didn’t pick up the PS2 or Xbox One version), seems like a perfect fit for Xbox Live Arcade or PS Network.

George Broussard: Duke Nukem 3D on XBLA coming soon

August 22, 2008

And the titles have poured this summer on XBLA. But what of the long-awaited Duke Nukem 3D? If 3D Realms’ George Broussard is to be believed, then it is coming “soon”.

Says Broussard, “We officially passed final cert on our first try Friday, August 15th.” There’s no indication as to how much the download would cost, but he did say it’s gonna be “about what you’d expect.” Hmmm… not exactly a clear blue sky there. XBL releases range from 800 MS Points to 1200 MS Points, so feel free to take your guess.

There’s also been a posting on the official website of the game revealing that the game is “now in the hands of Microsoft.” If all goes well, then we should be able to get it soon.

Achieve360points.com have said earlier that Duke Nukem 3D will be featuring 12 Achievements combined to the XBLA standard of 200 points. An example of the Achievements to be had in the game is the “Shake It Baby”, which you get by tipping an exotic dancer.

Rumor: pictures of Duke Nukem 3D on XBLA

WRUP takes a trip to (Sega) Saturn

August 16, 2008

Filed under: Meta (about Joystiq)

While most people hail the Dreamcast as Sega’s swan song, we want to go back one generation and remember the Saturn, which gave birth to person favorites NiGHTS Into Dreams, Dragon Force and … um … Christmas NIGHTS. We know there are other classics, so tell us your experiences with the console. Note how the special NIGHTS controller (mid left) looks conspicuously like the Sega Dreamcast pad. Here’s what we’ll be playing this weekend. Be sure to let us know what games will be occupying your time!

Alexander Sliwinski: I’ll be at a wedding in New Rochelle, NY this weekend, so it’s DS time for me. The plan is to keep my Civilization Revolution addiction going with the DS version. Also, hoping to be back in time on Sunday to make some more money with the Fable II pub games. Need to learn and play the table better on Keystone (a variation of Craps — yes giggling youths out there, that’s the name of a real casino game.)
Andrew Yoon: I’m only a small handful of Trophies away from getting 100% in PixelJunk Eden. This weekend, I’ll be going through the latest Ratchet & Clank adventure, Quest for Booty and then some demo time with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
Christopher Grant is the leader and doesn’t have to answer for himself.
Griffin McElroy won’t hear our Roll of Thunder call until the weekend begins.
Kevin Kelly: The Fable II pub games will be occurring, with several liftings of ale. I’ll also be playing in my D&D campaign (hello, nerdom!) and trying out this new card game called Pecking Order. It’s crazy, I tells ya. Plus some of my family is in town, so there will be some board game happenings going on as well.
Kyle Orland is a bunny rabbit.
James Ransom-Wiley: For the first time — ever! — I went with a PS3 version; in this case: Bionic Commando Rearmed. I also plan to spend some time psyching myself up for Too Human’s imminent release. (Oh, and Amazon, where is my Pub Games code?!)

Jason Dobson: After grinding this week through the Netherworld, I’m going to be spending the weekend mastering the subtleties of the Xbox 360’s terrible d-pad in Bionic Commando Rearmed, most likely falling to my death in the process.
Justin McElroy: I’m playing Space Siege as we speak, and I’m enjoying it so far. I’m also going to be listening to the Joystiq Podcast, because it’s so funny and good and right. [Ed. - Justin later told me to add “Too Human” to the list because he wanted to flaunt it over the peons}
Ludwig Kietzmann: I’m taking my copy of Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (cry more, purists!) to a friend’s place and introducing him to the world of cardboard boxes and heavy handed exposition. When I’m back home, I’ll be hacking away at Crisis Core’s never-ending side missions, fumbling my way through Alone in the Dark and slashing wildly at scantily clad sword mistresses in Soul Calibur IV.
Randy Nelson: My brief stint behind the handlebars of Burnout Paradises’ motorcycles has once again revved the throttle of my addiction to the game, so you’ll no doubt see me Freeburning on PSN this weekend. I’m also aching to get into the swing of Bionic Commando: Rearmed (I opted for the XBLA route) and should probably brush up on my Soul Calibur IV skillz if I ever hope to go toe-to-toe with Ludwig online
Ross Miller: XBLOverload with Braid, Bionic Commando and Pub Games. I’m still going through Rock Band drums on left-handed hard mode to try and get the other half of my body more in sync.

PS3 release of Braid ‘might happen’ - WiiWare not happening

August 12, 2008

Filed under: Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360

Blow explains, “I talked to some folks at Sony but they were not interested in carrying the game. Later on I talked to someone from a different division who *was* interested, but by then I had signed with Microsoft and started the XBLA port.” Sounds like Sony may get a second chance of having the downloadable hit on its PSN service. In an interview with GameFocus, Braid creator Jonathan Blow says that a PlayStation 3 port “might happen in the future.” He explained, “It’s a limited exclusive, so if I were to try to make a PS3 or WiiWare version of the game, I would have to wait a little bit.”

While Blow did not elaborate on how long the Xbox 360 timed exclusivity would last, he did reiterate that a PC release - presumably outside the limitations of any exclusivity contract - will “definitely happen this year” while a WiiWare release “is not going to happen for this game.” With over 30K downloads already logged on Xbox Live Arcade, adding two additional platforms should go some way towards obviating that whole price dilemma situation.
