** In the Duke Nukem 3D-themed DLC for ''Pinball M'', Protozoid Slimers are back, along with their eggs. Hitting them emits an awfully familiar sound of their activity, and one Slimer will even crawl up on the screen to kill you when you run out of balls.

The Battlelord... oh the Battlelord...
Added DiffLines:
** At the end of the Abyss, as you enter the main room of the alien ship and approach the [[SuspiciousVideogameGenerosity Portable Medkit]] sitting in the open, you hear a battlecry and witness a fanfare of explosions as the towering hulk of the Battlelord makes his entrance. If its [[GatlingGood minigun]], mortar, [[LightningBruiser high move speed]] and ability to literally crush you underfoot wasn't enough, its air-splitting roar (taken from ''Film/TheLandUnknown'') is utterly terrifying.

* Here's a rather infamous [[GoddamnedBats Goddamned Bat]]: the Protozoid Slimer (pictured above).

[[TheGoomba They're hilariously wimpy and barely deal damage]] unless you panic and fire the RPG by accident when one's on your face (and end up killing yourself), but that doesn't stop a good handful of players from jumping in their chairs or outright ''scarequitting the game'' upon sight of one that ''isn't even close.'' Add to this the fact that the first level ([=E2M2,=] "Incubator") and indeed most of the levels they appear in, [[BlackoutBasement lack much in the way of lighting]]. Oh, and in the core game the [[QuickMelee Mighty Boot]] doesn't work on the Slimers; that function was added in the ''Atomic Edition''. Consider yourself lucky if you're playing on the [=EDuke32=] source port with the third-person camera activated. Also, [[AllThereInTheManual according to the manual]], they attack Duke ''[[BrainFood by sucking his brain out through his nose]]!''

** One last thing about the Protozoid Slimers. It is possible for them to engage a fellow enemy in combat - [[OneHitKill only to swallow them on the spot]]. The same thing applies to enemy corpses too - be thankful they are nowhere near as dangerous to Duke himself.

** Perhaps the creepiest part is the implied genocide of all the astronauts on the moon base, as their gored corpses can be found sealed away in numerous locations or left to rot. It's actually unnerving just how ''violent'' some of these corpses are, as if they got utterly mauled and ripped apart before being placed in tubes to show off the brutality.

* There are naked women trapped in alien plant matter throughout the game, who mutter [[Film/{{Aliens}} "Kill me"]] in a desperate tone when talked to; it's a bit creepy, but soon you get used to it. All you can do is [[MercyKill either kill them]] or [[AndIMustScream leave them to their fate]]. Even worse is the poor woman in the intro in Episode 4: The Birth. As if being impregnated and giving birth to the alien's new Queen isn't bad enough, there are alien troopers surrounding her, watching with joy as she screams in agony and presents them with their abomination of a ruler. When you finally reach what's meant to be this room at the end of the episode, nothing but a gory mess remains splattered all over, implying the woman ''burst apart''.
