I remmember playing this on an old windows 95 computer brings back memories. This was the first game that acuialy gave me the creeps, like if u went down a dark hall and one of the mechs made like a shreek or a growl and u have no idea where it came from and turning around and charging back through the tunnel to get away lol.
Wow, what a great blast from the past! I adored this game, and the hours I spent playing it were ridiculous. I remember at the time being totally amazed at how awesome the graphics were. Shows we've come a long way, I guess. Great to see it in action again.
If you want to play this again, Google for D2X-XL - a Descent port allowing to play Descent 1 and 2 on Windows (XP, Vista, 7), Linux (32 and 64 bits) and OS X (10.4 and up), offering tons of new stuff light colored light, smoke and lightning effects, high resolution textures and models, bigger levels, internet multiplayer (UDP/IP) with match making, and a lot more. Check out my Youtube channel for videos.
Ah the memories of the music, the shaky escapes at the end of each level, the obnoxious Drillers, Silver Hulks and Red Hulks - and the terrifying level 7 boss!
Played the shareware for a long time before the full game so my memories of levels 1-7 are much clearer.
xDDD Dude... I loved this game! But I failed at it sooo bad I'd always get stuck at really weird camera angles and the robots would just kinda lawl and shot me
OMG, no way. I am so happy I found this. I loved this game so much. Used to play it all the time. I mean I was literally addicted. I was beginning to think I had imagined it. My games were this, Cosmic Adventures of Cosmo, and the first doom =] Any one rember that golden yellow wall in descent where if you stayed ther eit would heal the ship?
This may be my all-time favorite game! It was the first 3D game I ever played when I was a kid. Too bad they never made anymore next-gen sequels to it.
woah.... nostalgic feelings this whole time.
