No, like the original duke nukem.... contra... OH YEAHHHHH. I remember one shareware one called "Bio-Hazard" where you play this redneck guy in a green shirt. It was both crappy and fun at the same time.

there were times when I could start with 3 lives and end up with a ton more just from points.

I also could go through the entire game without dying at all - only did it a few times, though.

great game...
