Hmmmm, good to know I'm not the only one who still appreciates this old fps.
Yeah, "squishing" enemies was fun - especially when the door opened again and you could see what was left of your former enemy...
I believe there were even some custom maps with names like "squishy" etc, where there were some buttons that made the ceilings in whole sections of the map come down, squishing several multiplayer enemies at once. People really seemed to love that. Oh, and not to mention zillions of conversions of the first DOOM level fpr Duke3D. I remember the only map I finished halfways was a hidden submarine base, complete with hidden entrance behind a waterfall etc. etc. ... although I'm almost sure it was nothing in comparison with what a maniac like Pierre-Marie seems to be able to do with any game he likes...
I think some of my favourite places and levels were the prison level (which somehow reminded me of Stephen King's "Shawshank Redemption" (remember "behind the babe"?) ), the "Lunar Reactor" level in the 2nd episode and that huge dome on the moon, where a whole flock of those self-destroying drones with their high-pitched whine came in and made you circle the crater running and shooting for your life... IMHO, fps never got better than that. Technically, of course, but not regarding the atmosphere... only Unreal, perhaps.
Oh, and Pierre-Marie: Thank you for the link!!!!! Grrreat news, har, har! 8D "I'm Duke Nukem... and I'm coming to get the rest of you alien bastards!"
