The shrinker was listed on Ign's most innovative game gadgets. Really want to know why the hell the writer spells it Duke Nuke'em though. For the love of God it says Duke Nukem right on the damn box they have pictured. Anyways I think that Duke 3d has some of the most innovative and coolest weapons of all time. My favorite weapon collection has to come from the original blood though.

I'm having more of a problem with the "Ratchet and Clank's Sheepinator", clearly they haven't played Heretic or Hexen.

I personally think the shrinker is the worse gun ever. The only thing in there thats remotely cool is the morph ball, and you cant even read what it says becuse of the invincible ad. If they've ever played Heretic Hexen or any 007 game, theres some cool gadgets for ya.

Isn't the text wrapped the ad around for you?


Samus knows a thing or two about cool gadgets and her Morph Ball upgrade is the most important. Allowing her the ability to sneak into spaces that only 200-lb marbles could normally go, Samus' Morph Ball ability gets her to that shiny new energy canister every time. Add in the ability to bomb the hell out of stuff and you've got a winner, the only problem being her chiropractic bill.

Hehe, i like the last part of that describtion... http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

IMO the Shrinker is one of the coolest and most effective weapons ever...

Instead of using half the ammo of your devastator, you can simply use the shrinker, and stomp on them while they're small... now THAT'S funny!!! http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Especially when using it against big BADASS enemies... http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

shrinker will rarely shrink battle lord and that sucks!

furthermore, someone said freezer was also superultracool revolutionary weapon. and again, that was someone who really didn't play hexen.

When it actually DOES shrink him, let him expand and he wont attack you http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
