That's right, everyone's favorite ass kicker and bubble gum enthusiast is making a new home on the iPhone, as IGN reports 3D Realms' superb FPS, Duke Nukem 3D, will be available on the iPhone App store soon. Ported by Machineworks Northwest, this direct PC port will feature the entire original game, so you'll be able to tip those working girls and relieve yourself in the game's many bathrooms soon enough.
After spending some time with a preview build, IGN had nothing but good things to say, especially about the improved graphics. IGN didn't knock the controls, either, and said there will be two options: tap-to-shoot and a classic scheme. There's no word on when the game will be available on the App store, but we'll be sure to let you know as soon as it is.

So to compensate for not ever releasing DNF, we're going to port the game to every platform known to man and hope that people who weren't even alive when Duke3D was released will embrace the concept...

DNF: I'm here to kick ass and release date. And I'm all out of release date.

Well, I am happy that they're keeping it alive. I think all classic games deserve faithful ports. It's just... it's a damn shame that we're not gonna have any new content soon, y'know?

Is it a coincidence that DNF is also abbreviated as DID NOT FINISH, LMAFO.

Great news!
They should call it Duke Nukem: Calls of Steel.

To summarize: They bring a lot of well-known franchises to mobile devices, and they generally do an admirable job.
A friend of mine was responsible for programming Guitar Hero III Mobile (and maybe World Tour?) and Prey Invasion, among other things.

It does say with a tweak of enhanced graphics!
