Duke Nukem AI art; a man shooting guns

When it turned out the surprise new Duke Nukem remasters for the Evercade retro console had key art created using an generative AI, I couldn't help but think this controversy is the most Duke Nukem thing ever. It's very on-brand for a retro game series that has always made headlines for the wrong reasons.

So what happened? Publisher Blaze Entertainment held its online showcase and revealed an impressive roster of retro game collections, including two Duke Nukem carts, one featuring the classics Duke Nukem: Time to Kill, Duke Nukem: Land of the Babes, Duke Nukem Advance and Duke Nukem 3D, and one to feature remasters of the rare Duke Nukem 1 and 2 platformers.
