Duke Icon     Like he said, (Well......almost)  he'll come back with some more action! Duke Time to Kill is the second Duke title for the Playstation console.  Here is the interesting story:  As you well know, Duke is doing the thing he loves to do, kick it at the local strip bar.  Suddenly, pig cops came to the bar through a time portal and, not surprisingly, try to kill Duke.  Of course, Duke kills them and enters the time portal to fix what those alien bastards done to history!
        When you play the game, you'll find how amazing it is to see Duke at a fully, 3D third person view!  Duke can run, jump, swim, say hilarious liners, crouch, roll, back flip, and especially look behind corners to shot "unaware" enemies.  If you're thinking that Duke moves like Lara in Tomb Raider, you are dead wrong!
        Traveling through time is pretty cool!  You will be able to explore four time periods and pick up new weapons (accurate for each time period) such as dynamite, cross bows, axes, buffalo rifles, and my favorite holy grenades!  When traveling, Duke's attire will change along with the enemy pigs.
        So.... how's the A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) or the enemies?  You'll be surprised!  You see, I was going into a narrow hall way when all of a sudden, I saw one of those lizards.  The lizard saw me, shot me three times, and ran behind a corner.  Then, that freaken lizard made me waste my ammo when he repeatedly ran in and out of the corner!  Pretty sick!!  The bosses were pretty darn hard too, but when you know their patterns it is pretty easy to waste them.
        Flaws?  There is a few.  For starters there's not much action.  At most, you'll fight only four enemies at the same time!  You'll see the difference if you play Duke 3D.  Also, it is the night vision concept.  You'll only use it twice for the whole game! That item was a waste.  The ending was also another flaw of the game.  It is cheap!  You'll be saying, "I beat this game to only see this!?"
        The good parts of Duke Time to Kill outweigh the flaws, so the game is above average.  I don't recommend  buying this game (even though it has death matches) so only buy it if your a Duke fan.  Renting it would be better.
