Duke Nukem 3D's Toilets Featured

Joe Siegler · 04-01-2009, 03:02 PM

One of the thing a lot of people remember about Duke Nukem 3D is a gag that turns up in the first level, that being an alien trooper sitting on the toilet when you open the door in the bathroom. Apparently the folks over at Crispy Gamer remember that too. Today they're launching the high class look back at games entitled "The World's Greatest Videogame Toilets". In this series, they plan on covering the 30 greatest toilets in videogames. They started the series with the toilet from Duke Nukem 3D, which you can see below. We checked, this is not an April Fools' joke from Crispy Gamer, they're apparently going to spend 30 days talking about potty humour. Here's what they said about Duke 3D:
For many gamers, Duke Nukem 3D represents the very first time we discovered a toilet in a videogame. I honestly can't recall seeing a toilet in a game prior to this. And you never forget your first time. The toilets you're about to see can be found inside the movie theater in the game's opening level. Yes, this was the age of sprites, so the game's urinals, while functioning, appear to be drawn onto the game's walls with an old, dried-out Sharpie. Warning: Brace yourself for the surprise behind Door No. 2.
They also have a video showing the toilet in action. You can check that out here.

Duke 3D gives bathroom humor a whole new meaning.

One more concept that sets 3D Realms apart.

I still love blasting that bastard off the bowl! Gives new meaning to the saying...
'shit, or get off the pot'!

I personally enjoy drinking from toilets that have recently been shat in.

Good to see 3DR so flushed with success.

FrenzalBop · 04-02-2009, 12:41 AM

Micki! · 04-02-2009, 05:13 AM

Nostalgic, because when i was 8-9, and played this for the first time, and the first thing that made me go "wow awesome" was when i saw the trooper taking a crap, and that i could actually use the toilet myself, and even break it afterwards and drink the water...

When I first saw it, I was thinking that it was about time that the toilet had won an award. But...it just got a thread after all. Growing up playing this game, that was one of my favorite things . These are a few of my favorite things!

This thread is highly appropriate and an honor to post in , thank you for creating it 3d Realms, we love you ! TOILET TOILET TOILET !

My brother said " as long as it has toilets in it, that you can use it's all good " or some shit like that was what he said . ..

(Referring to DNF)

This thread was inspiration for my arvie.

I never noticed it until last night but when the alien on the toilet gets up to fight duke he flushes.

Thankfully, I needn't have doubted myself - Duke Nukem 3D remains one of the highest watermarks the shooter genre has lapped up against, and in many areas still hasn't been bettered to this day.

^Nice article.

Llama Gibbz · 04-05-2009, 09:23 PM

Its the attention to small details and interactivity with such things,that push such FPS's above the rest and made duke3d a classic.
Ever since i played duke3d, i always look for working plumbing in games.

Puritan · 04-06-2009, 07:06 AM

The first thing that comes to my mind when watching Joe's screenie is ; Badly aligned textures..

I must have been occupied with the Build engine too long I guess...

zeroagent · 04-06-2009, 11:06 AM

That image always cracked me up the first time I saw that in game. I was thinking "You're kidding...."
