Oh, I've waited so long to be able to play this game again! Don't know if any of you will remember it, but back when Dukeworld.com was going strong I was developing a Stargate total conversion for it called "In the Hands of the Serpent" which featured new levels, new enemies, new graphics, new music, and well new everything really. It was never quite finished, but I've still got a near finished version still sitting around on my harddrive - now if only it would work on the XBLA version I'd get it finished!!

It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, but I'm all outta gum...
