We’re torn on pointing this out, because it’s one of the crummiest iOS ports in recent memory, but if you’re willing to wrestle with some truly terrible on-screen controls in the pursuit of ultraviolent, misogynistic nostalgia, 3D Realms’ classic FPS Duke Nukem 3D is now free on both the iPhone and the iPad.

Honestly, free’s free, though, and the core game’s excellent enough that, with some patience, this is still a game very much worth playing… the rare game title that manages to transcend its own pan-offensive stupidity.
