What was that side-scrolling/platformer Duke Nukem a few years back?
I never played it but remember looking at screenshots/reviews at the
time and thinking it looked pretty neat.

It's ok Noman, I'm onto Beth's 'emperor has no clothes' wet sandpit
policy now. Won't make the same mistake twice ;-p
And I will feel free to get the 'demo' (if I could be bothered) - if
it's _really_ that good & worthy of my dollar they'll get it eventually.
Are you a betting man Noman? I'm not, but I'd be happy to take yer money
on this occasion - PayPal or e-Cash - just let me know. >8^D

"Living out in the country surrounded by farms and rolling hills sure
makes the world of computer-gaming seem distant. Oh the residual fond
memories of the great games of yesteryear like FO1 and FO2. The world
is not like it was when I was an enthusiastic young gamer 30 years
ago. Gettin' a bit hot sittin' out here on the porch. Now where did I
put my darn walking stick?"

That was actually a fun game, and I'm not a big fan of platformers.
