You have the chance to become the next Duke Nukem, compliments of dukeisback.com.

If only this were a large, budgeted reality TV show. It would be the only thing in the history of reality television worth watching. I can imagine the contests… a jetpack race, a vulgarity competition, kicking people in the face, properly tipping strippers… it would be fantastic.
We could call it America’s Next Top Nukem.
Or Glock of Love.
Dancing With the Scars.
Keeping Up With the Kickassians.
Duke Nukem is 40 and Pissed.
The Biggest Bruiser.
Flavor of Buzz.
Project Gunway.

Alright, I’m done.

Apogee and Deep Silver are on the hunt for the next live-action Duke Nukem. Through the above website, you (or any of your brawny, bad-mouthed, buzz-cutted, muscle-ridden friends) can step into your best steel-toed boots and submit your own Duke audition video. Following the recent closure of 3D Realms, this Twitter post from Apogee’s COO spawned the initial public announcement of this upcoming Duke… something. The winner gets to travel around the world as Mr. Nukem, being all Mr. Nukemish and showing people what a Mr. Nukem he is. Whatever that’s worth to you.

The best part about all this is you can watch people’s audition clips on the site, so have fun with that. And if you’re thinking of submitting your own – well, good luck to you. It’s about time your buzz cut did something for you.
