Descent

(1/4) > >>

Luke:
I was inspired to start this after we hijacked the Stuff You've Made thread.

Descent is a dead game, unfortunately (Interplay, its creator, has ceased to exist), but it was one of the best games I ever played on the computer.

Any other Descent lovers out there?

Inlander:
I only ever had the demo . . . But I played that over, and over, and over again.

Damn those 3-D maps take some getting used to, though.

Bunnyman:
I just got too lost to enjoy it after a while.

But it was hella cool, especially "in the day." so many awesome details, like splashing lava on people with laser fire...and the mighty, mighty vulcan cannon.

jhocking:
I really enjoyed the first one right up until I reached the first boss (level 7, I think.)  Maybe I just suck, but I could never beat that guy.  After about a week circling his lair and being chased by those damn green pellets-o-death, I stopped playing the game.  Never played the sequels.

Luke:
We used to have Descent I, but I don't know what happened to it. We have only II & 3.

I finished Descent 3 only with cheat codes, so I'm eager to set up my old computer so I can go back through it the right way. (Descent II won't install on XP as it was written for the 95 platform, and Descent 3 stops working towards the end of the game.) Hopefully Windows 2000 will be old enough for the both of them.
