I was one of the first suckers who purchased the Manhattan Project when it first came out. Don't know why you would say it's "original"? It was a major step back in gaming technology, going from a simulated 3 dimensional game back to a 2 dimensional layout, 2D is what put Apogee on the map 10 years earlier. Manhattan Project was a huge disapointment and 3D Realms did nothing more than use Duke3d's previous sucess to market a game that took a step back in time. It was nothing more than a way to generate revenue and it was my first realization that 3DRealms was creating nothing more than hype with their outdated games. I still don't get Max Payne, the only reason why I bought it was because 3D Realms developed it. Another waste of money.
