Ascending to new levels!

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2000
Review: After playing past Descents I wasn't expecting much from this game. Boy was I wrong.
For once, an action game has shipped with intuitive, and perfectly operational multiplayer. Spanning over 9 multilayer modes, game styles, and connection types...

Descent 3: Why are you forgotten?

Date of Review:  Jun 20, 2000
Review: Back when the internet was still young and my computer sported the new powerful 486sx33 processor I was first drawn to the Decent series. The effects were spectacular for the time period. The game never really made the mainstream as fast paced...

The Best of the Series - Without a Doubt

Date of Review:  Nov 5, 2000
Review: With Descent 3 you are getting a high impact, heart pounding shoot-em up with great graphics, gameplay, and a thriving multiplayer community.

First to the graphics, which if your system can handle it are amazing. Hate to use that word,...

Beyond Descent

Date of Review:  Jan 19, 2000
Review:
Descent3 has come a long way, moving towards a Descent style
game that will keep em coming back for more and more. The use of todays
3d graphics cards in game building always helps a games overall look and
feel. Descent3 plays...

Descent series takes a fall

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2000
Review: Descent 3 to me is just Descent 2 but better. In other words, just feels like a patch or update, nothing special. Graphics are very nice indeed and the 3d environment adds to it. That is the only thing i like about the next in the Descent series. In...

HOT - DESCENT III - HOT

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2000
Review: I loved this game from the begging! When it came out back in 1995. It was the first one that defined the 360? degrees rotation. I was hooked. From time to time my head would become dizzy, but I did not care, it was so kewl. The Descent got original...

Descent 3

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2000
Review: There was so much hype on Descent 3 about it using 2 3D engines, adding planetside sections, and taking the game out of the mines. But in the end Descent 3 still is Descent. This is not a bad thing. The feel, the gameplay, and the fun will be...

Descent 3 will rock your world and theirs!

Date of Review:  Dec 7, 1999
Review: This game blew me away. I had to get a few cheat codes off the net just so I could get a peek at all the cool weapons in the game itself. The endless arsenal can entertain you for hours, especially the mass driver. Of course this review is coming...

A Magic Wonder, But Considered a Sequel!

Date of Review:  Nov 25, 1999
Review: Being a Descent fanatic since game one and two, I had to have Descent III.
My first impression is, Descent III is a Magical Wonder in it's own right, far outreaching anything the first two games had to offer. About the only thing Decent III has...

My Mind in the Mines...Again

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: Get it only if you have played the original descent or if you would like a gaming experience like none other. Not to mention it's cheap in retail, buy it.
Review: This series was by all time my favorite.

Descent 1 had all the potential a game could offer with a
360 degree environment and killer first action gameplay.

Descent 2 reached some of the potential without changing
the...
