Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Updated Sidescroller
Review: 3D Realms must have pushed the limits of the sidescroller with this game and limits are what you will encounter and its extremely noticeable and annoying for those used to 3D. They used visual tricks with perspective backgrounds to try to fool your eyes into thinking you're moving in 3D but anyone used to first-person shooters like Max Payne and Medal of Honor can easily see through this and why these players will eventually shelve it by after the first level. However, the graphics are great updates from the the Duke Nukem 3D game and its good to hear Duke's one-liners again but its still a lame attempt to retain an audience. If Manhattan Project is the last Duke game, no one will care Duke Nukem Forever ever gets finished.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Duke Is Back
Review: Although not the first-person game fans have been waiting for, all other aspects of the game are true to Duke, the primary factor of course is Duke's voice acting and dialogue. It's 2D nature shows its age and quite annoying at times but the graphics are as good as it can be. If this is the last Duke game, at least it was a great effort.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: old school fun
Review: Are you getting sick of the saying "old school" by now? Get used to it. Duke is back but in his old side scrolling environment with a 3D makeover. It reminds me of how much fun games like contra were. I would have liked to see more enemies at once with more devastating weaponry. Duke, however, did manage to bring some innovation to an already tapped out genre. Overall, "Manhattan Project" is a good appetizer before Duke Nukem Forever is released and for less than $30, what the hell.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disappointing =(
Review: As a fan of Duke from the beginning I was a little disappointed by this release. Seems like in 2002 we could ask for better...... Come on, a side-scroller with poor graphics and no network play? Thats so dated. I have a P3 not a 486. Soured by this experience I anxiously await the Duke Nukem Forever release of the "Real" game. Out in.....forever.

Summary: Truth is it's a failed duke product by 3drealms !
Review: Don't believe the others who give this game 5 stars. This game is nowhere as good as Duke3d. Sure, if you want side scrollers then this game may be good for you although it sure doesn't beat the Commander Keen series as well as other platform games out there. Moreover, this game was released as a result of 3drealms's once again failed attempt to get DNF out the door.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: GameBoy for the PC
Review: Don't waste your Gaming Computer and game playing time with this game unless you missing playing on your GameBoy. Limited two Dimension play with uncreative graphics. Not a true sequel.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project
Review: Duke Nukem Manhattan project is a 3D sidescroller and is the fourth Duke Nukem game. You as Duke Nukem must save the planet from the mutants and their cybrog leader. I played the game in the OpenGL video mode and it runs great, Direct3D is also available. It is the best looking sidescroller i have ever played, The graphics and sound are great. The single player is quite dissappointing, The game is not very long and it is mostly shoot everything that moves and the puzzles are just find the key card. There is nothing new between the levels and it is not a hard game, besides the boss in the seventh episode the rest of the game was easy. Duke Nukem Manhattan project is disappointing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Duke Nukem is coming back!
Review: Duke Nukem Manhattan Project is a great game! It has everything about Duke Nukem that I remember when I use to play when I first started playing the old Duke Nukems. It has all the cool weapons and the graphics are great. I can't wait for Duke Nukem Forever, from what I saw of the trailer that came with the game it looks great the graphics and gameplay look awesome it deffiantly keeps you interested in Duke Nukem. This is a must have for any Duke Nukem fan or any person!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awesome Buy
Review: Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project is an excellent computer game. You can fight killer pigs or women with lethal whips. Great sound, graphics, and weapons. For this bargain bin price, Duke Nukem is practically being given away.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Duke Nukem MP
Review: First of all, I didn't like the side view perspective. I always like the first person perspective of past Duke episodes. This reminds me too much of Super Mario Nintendo type games, which I hate. Second, you can't move but right or left in many parts of the game. That even reminds me more of Nintendo games. The old DN games gave a freedom of movement feel, which, to me, seemed more realistic.The graphics are very good, a big improvement over the old graphics, but I like the underwater effects and FP style of the earlier installments.
