Overload

Controls are great. Gameplay is similar to Descent 2, but with slight improvements. The weapons feel good, performance is good even on more modest systems. Interesting story for those who are interested in that aspect.

good old descent game but polished

god god god the best god god god the best

This is as is remember oldschool descent. Cool weapons. Blow stuff up. Music pumping and very Scifi-y (Soundtrack is jawdroppingly awesome). Levels are sometimes convoluted and you need your hologuide or map to navigate, also very classic-descent-like. It just looks better. And weapons are upgradeable. That's that. Story mode is super fun. Challenge Mode is also a lot of fun, whenever you want fast action and lots of boom and bang and pew and woosh and... you get the idea... left and right. Come get your fix! PS: Never tried MP tho, not my fun.

I've been playing Descent for years... all they way since the 7 level shareware version of Descent 1 for DOS. The devs, Matt, Mike & company have really hit it out of the park with Overload. This is the real deal, it just feels like descent... but the graphics and pace are 100x better. BUY IT! NOW! * Only thing that can make it better... I someone will make a mod to actually rebrand it "Descent 4" and bring back the Pyro :-)
