Review

one word: disorientating

add onto that how for me, im so incredibly bored of first person shooters of all kinds, after 10 years of them... that playing one thats so boring = like watching paint dry!

I actually loved replaying a bit that game, unfortunately in my memory it was better. It still is a good game.

It's a good game, but I never was really good at it. Always ran out of time because I couldn't figure the full 3D out. Map was confusing me, for example. Nothing like a normal one, which's made to find your way.

Superb game but i also never finished it. The later levels where just too weird. Did anybody played Descent (or one of its descendants ) with vr googles?

You can get a 3dfx patch for descent here

how do you run this? I'm using windows ME so the dos box is still a feature but when I run the .BAT file it just tells me my available memory.

Ah, this reminds me of freshman yr of high school. Would play this game every day during my lunch period. Great Find guys! I've been looking for a full version

That means that you didn't activate enough memory in DosBox. Open the file dosbox.conf and look for that sentence - memsize=XX under [dosbox] (XX is the amount of RAM in MB). Just change the value XX to 64 and all should be fine (I hope).

Great game. Spent a lot of summer afternoons playing :P

A remake of Descent (like Doomsday or QuakeGL) would be nice
