Consoles are crap
Consolist are dumb
Console makers are monopolist companies wanting to turn customers into
SLAVES

No it wasn't it was Terminator Future Shock, one of the most
innovative FPS ever created and one to be together with Wold3D (yes
definitely the first FPS ever created) and DOOM as all time best
Duke Nukem 3D is a very well made DOOM clone and became a classic, but
its a clone nonetheless
The innovation is with the humor which then gave birth to titles like
Serious Sam
Serious Sam is a "child" of Duke Nukem 3D and I feel that is a big
compliment cause Serious Sam is now also classic material
