Gets me everytime

[Citan1981]

I find this very easy to work to...

[VergessenHeld]

FUCKING LOAD ALREADY! God damn computers take forever just to load a small level. Yeesh...

[GAMESJUEGOSSIERRA23]

Does somebody nows how I can run this game on Windows 7? By the way, this soundtrack, is awesome

[thefinalpie]

@GAMESJUEGOSSIERRA23 theres a program called DOSBOX that you can download that pretty much simulates what you need to run it on a windows 7 PC. All I did was click and drag the .exe file onto the DOSBOX icon and it ran without a hitch.

[Balnazzardi]

@GAMESJUEGOSSIERRA23 Or you can buy this from GOG(dot)com (Good old Games) and already has dosbox installed, and it works perfectly.

[James100111100]

Wow, that just sent chills down my spine. This is the ultimate theme for descent. Nothing compares.

[vstman]

I never liked Descent that much gameplaywise, but I really enjoy the music!

[homerj231]

I think GM is using this in their Sierra commercial along with the flying robots.

[gagaplex]

Man, when I played this, I was so much younger.

This game actually scared me in the later levels, never finished it.

[CommodoreWog]

@gagaplex , haha ye used to sare me also.

[nintendonut888]

Now THIS is the song I remember from all those years ago. I finally got this game running on a source port, but the song is of lower quality. :(

[T1B3R1AS]

Download Dosbox :)

[ZhadoxFlamez]

@nintendonut888

DosBox will get you this quality.

[N3cr0n0mIV]

MS-DOS! lol

[Tommygun1135]

This is probrably one of the best menu themes I've heard in a while.

[HaystackCaldoon]

I used to sit on the menu just to enjoy this tune. The first-level BGM is pretty spiff, too, with that "just-starting-out" energy that every opening-level tune begs to have.

[Tommygun1135]

I play games just to hear the menu music sometimes.

[NotNamedJohn]

Oh man, I remember playing this on my Windows 95/Acer computer. It was killer.

Thanks for uploading this, this was one of my favorite themes from video games for a loooong long time.

[Locateson]

The shareware version uses a slightly different tune that is also pretty great

[SpyHamster]

Awesome game...I wish the series didn't die like it did. I wish more games had actual soundtracks instead of all that atmospheric stuff.

[Wazzazzle]

There's still a strong community, and there are still new level sets being made. If you have D2, you can run both D1 and D2 with an incredible source-port called D2X-XL which adds tons of modern graphical features. Check out darkflamewolf's channel, she's just finished uploading a walkthrough of one of the newest level sets.

[ZhadoxFlamez]

What kind of sound driver would i need to produce this music?

[SaturnineXTS]

It sounds like Sound Blaster... just run your Descent on DOSBox, same with setup.exe and choose Sound Blaster for your music card.

[doomdude873]

i have a difrent menu song but i like this better

[SaturnineXTS]

I liked the Sound Blaster 16 version better I think. But it's purely sentimental value. This sounds better objectively speaking.

[Locateson]

That is the version for OPL/FM sound cards. There is also one for wavetable cards. I prefer this one.

[d0ngs]

I want the one from DWANGO6.WAD map01

(Doom 2)

[walexia]

not quite BUT very and i mean VERY close to original!! good job!!

[YoshiFan007]

That -is- the original.

[julius923]

It depends on what kind of sound card you have.

[jdaxses]

Yeah - General MIDI was the best ...
