Oh. My. Goodness.

Words fail me.

I played this game with my dad back when I was a kid more then ten years ago.

Now I'm playing it on Steam....

Wow, this takes me back a LOOOONNNNGGGG time.

This game is one the "DOOM clones" from the 1990s but it's so much more than that:

It takes place in the future where you are a pilot of this small ship that is on a mission to cleanse the military bases in our solar system, of robots.

What was REALLY cool, and still is for me, is that you can move in any direction during the game. It actually made my dad sick if he played it for more than an hour lol.

The graphics are hilariously bad for 2014, but that's because this game was released 20 years ago.

The soundtrack actually maybe more memorable than the game itself! It's basically just really intensely distorted industrial metal. Jeff Beck comes to mind when I describe this soundtrack actually.

If I'm not making any sense describing this game it's just because I'm in awe that I'm able to play this game again.

To ANYONE looking for a cheap game on Steam, I've been playing this game for ten years, and I highly HIGHLY recommend it.

The price I believe is $6.

It's called Descent. There's also a sequel called Descent II

lol the minimum system requirements: Windows XP
