I was feeling a little bit of Duke Nukem nostalgia and this hits the spot.

Great first post I say. Duke Nukem Forever!

This needs to be placed in ball flexing lol

ftp://ftp.3drealms.com/misc/grabbag.zip is the original song.

Is there a downloadable audio version of the one shown in the video?

This is fake, well sort of. Megadeth did a version of Grab Bag (the Duke Nukem 3D theme song) and this guy has simply done a video of himself playing the guitar with that song in the background. There's another video floating around where a guy really did do his own version of the Duke theme and its noticeably different than this version.

Here's a link to 3DRealms' site where they give you a link to a sample of it, aside from the vocals IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME AUDIO AS THIS VIDEO.

Efflixi is right.

But taking Megadeath and passing it off as your own?

I'm not sure its exactly the same. The guitars don't sound the same.. I can't put my finger on what it is. He definitely does take from the Megadeath version, but I am inclined to believe him when he says he performed the parts separately and put them together for the video.

From what little I heard, I liked his better. That might just have been the vocals thing though.

This has nothing to do with the Megadeth version: different solos, different drum pattern and more similar to the original Nuke theme.

Nice stuff anyway, especially the final solo is spot on.

I doubt it's the Megadeth version. I played this and my friend (a musician) yelled from the other room "What is that, it sounds different from the Megadeth version?"
