Philip_Duke Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 There have been various on PlayStation, PlayStation 2, Xbox, handhelds and such, but if you've played any which would you recommend? We'll probably never see a new Dukes game or the series released on Blu-ray because folks nowadays get all offended over the flag that's on top of the General Lee. And if he doesn't have it, he ain't General Lee! RogerDuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 For a kid they'd probably be entertaining but as an adult I didn't enjoy the PlayStation ones, just too easy to beat. And the physics sucked to put it nicely, the cars drove too easy and had way too much grip especially on dirt. The 3d animated cutscenes were the only bright spots of the games.

RogerDuke Posted October 26, 2021 Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) I've never played any of them but I bet they are fun. The only systems we have are Wii and that small classic original Nintendo that came out 3 or 4 years ago. I doubt Wii has Dukes.

Unfortunately, there's no Dukes games for it on Wii or GameCube (backwards compatible with Wii). If you'd want to try a Dukes game without looking too outdated, I'd recommend a PS2 or Xbox. Older Dukes games like on PS1 might turn off folks because of how graphically old it looks. I plan on playing the PS2 game even though it's probably nothing great. For example, Knight Rider didn't have any solid games either, but the one on PS2 is still a lot of fun. RogerDuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of a PC version put out in the 2000's that turned out to be a flop due to compatibility issues. I had one for the original Nintendo in the 80's which was fun.

There was although only released in the PAL region (Europe/Australia). If you use a PS2 Memory Card with FMCB then you can play any game via USB/HDD, regardless of region. Also, there was a second Knight Rider game, but that felt more like an "add-on." Spike, RogerDuke and Skipper Duke 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted October 26, 2021 Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 Here's a look at the PS2 version. I know that Edward Mulhare (Devon Miles) died in 1997 (five years before this games was released), but they don't seem to have licensed any of the original actors to provide voices (unlike the Dukes games).

Spike Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Wonder why they didn't release it here. Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip_Duke Posted November 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 The best Dukes game isn't even a Dukes of Hazzard property, it's part of EA's Burnout franchise: Burnout Paradise https://burnout.fandom.com/wiki/Hunter_Cavalry_Bootlegger It doesn't have the flag which is part of General Lee's identity, but aside that it's pretty awesome. This game is full of jumps over everywhere and I love that! RogerDuke and Spike 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah because the video game preview for Return of the General Lee on PS 2/Xbox on the Season 1 DVD set Special Features showed a plain orange roof. Just the rectangle where flag should be. But it was in actual game. But yeah these days there'd be no flag. Philip_Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
