* [[Awesome Music]]: The main theme, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CezOHqlXAFY "Grabbag"], to the point that even [[Megadeth]] [[Cover Version|covered]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW_9SGrc4Oo it].
* [[Ear Worm]]: "GrabBag", the title music of ''DN3DDuke Nukem 3D''. An [[MP3]] of it is available for download from the composer's site.
* [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: The first level of the game has Duke on his [[One Man Army]] war inside of a movie theater. Fast forward to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Aurora_shooting Aurora in 2012] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_Lafayette_shooting Lafayette in 2015].
* [[Goddamned Bats]]:
** The Protozoid Slimers, which hatch from eggs, hide in vents, and climb up on your screen, tearing you apart unless you kick 'em quickly. They're pretty hard to hit in the open, too. Luckily one hit of anything kills them if you can connect, including the otherwise damage-less Shrinker.
Line 10:
** The Build engine is notorious for its flaws that allows mapmakers to come up with interesting map ideas. [https://web.archive.org/web/20130512132903/http://dukerepository.com/maps/Bizarre Bizarre] takes this fact and drives it straight into Mindscrew territory.
** There is the possibility that you can die as you're exiting the level. If that happens, you start the next level with your stuff intact and 100 health.
* [[Sequel Displacement]]: Anybody remember ''[[Duke Nukem I]]'' or ''[[Duke Nukem II|II]]''?
* [[Suspiciously Similar Song]]: The first level of "The Birth" is called "It's Impossible", and it's theme is called "Missing Impossible", and it is (very) reminiscent of ''[[Mission: Impossible]]'''s iconic theme. And you start outside a building with a sign out front that proudly declares it to be the "Impossible Mission Facility".
* [[That One Level|That One Episode]]: Episode 4 in the [[PS 1]] version (especially on [[Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels|Come Get Some]]) due to the shortage of ammo throughout the levels.
