Line 3:
** '''Duke:''' ''You wanna touch it, don't you?''
* Upon seeing a giant three-breasted alien monstrosity, most people would probably run and hide. Duke's response?
{{quote| "[[Anything That Moves|Hell, I'd still hit it.]]"}}
* "Yeah, but after 12 fucking years it should be."
* When Gearbox had to delay the game ''[[History Repeats|again]]'' by one month, to June 10th in Europe and June 14th in the US, Gearbox released [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6fFKkmIrWM this video] announcing the delay, with the [[Tagline]] [[PunA Worldwide Punomenon|"Duke never comes early."]]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRBfzoqOZcs This] new trailer really puts strain on the definition of "Mature humor"
{{quote| '''Duke:''' ''Combo!'' ''Double Combo!'' ''Triple Combo!'' ''Super Combo!''}}
** And yes, there's an achievement/trophy tied into finding and stealing a piece of poo. Behold, [http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/duke-nukem-forever/achievement/53792-Turd-Burglar.html the Turd Burglar.]
* During a point in the demo, Duke is allowed to draw a 'plan' on a whiteboard for some soldiers. No matter how nonsensical a drawing you make or how much of the original plan you replace, the soldier observing will respond with amazement.
{{quote| '''Soldier:''' Why didn't we think of that!? '''WHHHHHYYYYYYYYY!?'''}}
** Alternately:
{{quote| '''Soldier:''' I have no idea what that means, but if I did, I bet that guy over there would still have his arm. And at least one ball.}}
* Running an enemy over with Duke's monster truck:
{{quote| Beep beep, motherfucker!<br />
Frickin' jaywalkers.<br />
So much for anti-lock brakes. }}
* When Duke gets shrunk by a trap in "The Lady Killer" he meets a kid who says he's "the coolest toy ever." Duke's response?
{{quote| "Hey, kid. I'm not a toy. I'm an ''action figure''!"}}
* Later, while shrunk, Duke ends up fighting some rats who mistake him for an easy meal.
{{quote| "Now those were some [[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|rodents of unusual size.]]"}}
* Hearing shrunken Duke exclaim "motherfucker!!!" in his squeaky voice as he falls down an air vent.
** Upon being first shrunk; "The ''fuck''...?"
* The text on the loading screen offers some hilarious commentary as well.
{{quote| If you die by falling off a ledge, it's really just your own fault.<br />
[[Captain Obvious|When getting shot at, avoid bullets.]]<br />
If you get stuck, you can always cheat by reading an online FAQ. <br />
Line 32:
* Duke's gleeful cackle and mimicking of complex machinery winding down broken after he trashes a turbine in "Underground" was so unexpected yet appropriate, it got this troper giggling for the remainder of the level. Also, he has never felt so good about vandalism before.
* Near the end of the game:
{{quote| '''General Graves:''' America is counting on ''you''.<br />
'''Duke:''' ''[singing]'' [[Team America: World Police|America, fuck yeah!]] }}
* Punching out Christian Bale. Nothing more needs to be said.
* In The Doctor Who Cloned Me, {{spoiler|Dylan}} becomes one of the funniest parts of series. {{spoiler|His}} best line is {{spoiler|his}} idea to get Duke {{spoiler|to the moon}} (reverse the polarity) and the follow-up. It's just how proud {{spoiler|he}} sounds about the idea that sells it.
** Voice verification.
{{quote| '''Duke Clone''': Repeat after me. I've got balls balls balls balls of steel.<br />
'''Duke''': I've got balls...er...balls, balls, balls of steel? }}
