Descent 2

A great game, and thank you GOG for providing DOSBOX and making things a ton simpler :)

Since its initial release, I have maintained that no game past or present has had a user interface as sophisticated as that found in Descent. Think about it. Where else can you strafe straight up? Relative to other first person combat games of the era such as Doom and Heretic, the graphics really stood out from the pack. Full 3D enemies, weapons, and artifacts made this game believable. The only think left to say is not a statement of fact or a praise, which this game deserves much more of than I am giving it in this review. Rather, I'll end with a question. will we ever see a Descent 4? The world needs to be re-exposed the greatness that is Parallax Software.

You know the feeling when you relive a moment from your childhood and you remember the sense of joy that one particular thing brought you. Ya. This is one of those games. The quality is great for it's age, the gameplay is so incredibly solid you'll soil yourself, the music will get stuck in your head simply because it's that good, the level design is very unique to each level and set up like a maze that was constructed by the best minds on the team, and it has a very high replay value due to the difficulty differences each rank has. I am very happy I was able to find a copy that wasn't a portion of the game or just a taste, and 2 of them at that. Only problem is that I had to adjust some settings in the compatibility menu to get it to work right, but after that, no issues at all. If your a fan of blowing things up, flying freely, and high quality production for 1994-1996, Why are you reading this, get the game NOW.

Spent weeks beating this on a 486/33 with an S3 911 video chip . . . I remember the local rock radio station (DC/101) handing this out to the [whatever]ith caller!

Didn't have to worry about anything!!! 100% compatible with windows 7! You just have to download, install, and that's it! Great job! Gonna buy more games!
